How did Joker 2 begin? Director Todd Phillips reveals the origins behind 2024’s hottest sequel
Lady Gaga as Harley Quinn and Joquin Phoenix as Joker pose next to each other.

Instead of directing a conventional sequel, Todd Phillips swung for the fences in Joker: Folie à Deux, the highly anticipated follow-up to 2019's Joker.

Before materializing as a movie, Joker 2 began as a Broadway dream from star Joaquin Phoenix, who won the Best Actor Oscar for his performance in the first film. Phoenix pictured his character, Arthur Fleck, singing and telling jokes onstage in his Joker costume. However, the logistics of a musical on Broadway deterred the duo from pursuing Phoenix's vision.
“When we started really thinking about it, we realized it takes four years to put something like that together. And is Joaquin really going to give six months of his life to do that every night onstage,” Phillips said to Variety in a cover story. “Then we thought about doing it at the Carlyle as sort of a smaller thing. But COVID hit.”
Despite abandoning the stage production, Phillips liked incorporating music into a Joker sequel to tell Arthur's story. Five years later, the result became Joker: Folie à Deux, a musical drama that brings together Phoenix's Arthur Fleck and Lady Gaga's Harley Quinn in a twisted love story. While Joker 2 includes musical elements, Phillips falls short of categorizing the sequel as a musical.
