Joker 2 introduces music and complex relationships

Joker 2 is going to be a musical, a first for live-action DC films. It will, however, still dive deep into the mind of the famous Batman villain, Joker. In this movie, we will also get to see Lady Gaga playing Harley Quinn, exploring her relationship with the Joker. Most of the story will happen in the Arkham Asylum, and it seems like not much time has passed since the first Joker movie.

Some familiar faces return, like Zazie Beetz as Sophie Dumond. There's also talk about Harvey Dent being in the movie, though we don't know who will play him yet. It's exciting because it's the first time a big comic book movie will be a musical. With this being a different kind of Joker story, the filmmakers have a lot of freedom to try new things. We can't wait for the trailer, which is coming out soon!
