The sequel of the Oscar-winning film Joker is one of the most anticipated releases. The first starring Joaquin Phoenix in the titular role was a blockbuster, minting billions of moolah at the box office, breaking and setting multiple records and promising another hit film. Ever since the sequel was announced the fans have been waiting for the release date, well it's finally here.

The Joker 2 sequel likely to star Joaquin Phoenix as the DC villain will be directed by Todd Phillips and get a blockbuster release by Warner Bros. after the 2019 debut of Joker, which grossed around $1 billion at the box office. The sequel will hit the theatres on October 4, 2024

Phillips wrote the script with Joker co-writer Scott Silver. Phillips has revealed on social media the title of the new project 'Joker: Folie à deux' referencing a medical term for an identical or similar mental condition that affects two or more individuals or the members of the same family. The sequel will be a musical with none other than Lady Gaga expected to play the Clown Prince of Crime's co-conspirator Harley Quinn.

`Joker` earned 12 Oscar nominations for best director, best picture, and best-adapted screenplay. Further, lead actor Joaquin bagged the best actor award as well. For the unversed, Todd`s film `Joker` depicted the life of struggling comedian, Arthur Fleck played by Joaquin Phoenix who is reframed into an anti-hero, taking the name of Joker, inflicting horrific acts of violence.
