5 Aug – While Warner Bros. has decided to kill its superhero Batgirl, it is now confirming the release date of its villain, the Todd Phillips' "Joker: Folie à Deux". According to Deadline, the movie is set for release on 4 October 2024, with production reportedly to begin in December this year. In a previous report, it was said that the movie will be a musical, with Lady Gaga to possibly play the role of Harley Quinn.
The term 'Folie à Deux' is referring to the clinical term for the 'shared madness' between two people – in which delusions and hallucinations are believed to transfer from one person to another. This could mean that the movie will focus on the relationship between Joker and Harley. The Joaquin Phoenix-starrer was a hit when it was released back in 2019, earning USD 1.074 billion at the box office with a budget of only USD 70 million.
