Synopsis

Joker: Folie à Deux finds Arthur Fleck institutionalised at Arkham, awaiting trial for his crimes as the Joker. While grappling with his dual identity, Arthur not only stumbles upon true love but also discovers the music that has always been within him.

Director’s Statement

In 2018, when we first made Joker, we could never have imagined it would strike such a chord with audiences around the world. Joaquin and I had discussed a sequel, but never seriously—until we witnessed the reaction to Arthur’s story. If we were going to do it, we knew we had to swing for the fences; we wanted to create something as crazy and fearless as Joker himself.
So, Scott Silver and I wrote a script that delved further into the idea of identity.
Who is Arthur Fleck? And where does the music inside him come from?
