New Delhi:
An update on the once lonely, depressed and failed comedian Arthur Fleck, who goes on to change the fate of Gotham City. He found love in a hopeless place – an asylum. Of course, we are talking about the official teaser trailer of Joker: Folie a Deux, featuring Joaquin Phoenix as the titular joker and Lady Gaga as his muse Harley Quinn. The video begins with the guards asking Arthur if he has a joke for them. Arthur and Harley find solace in music and each other’s company or as they call it, “to balance the fractures within ourselves.” The two plan to escape the literal and metaphorical cage. “I’m nobody. I haven’t done anything with my life like you have,” Harley tells Arthur at one point. Joker: Folie a Deux trailer is an amalgamation of a musical with the heart of a tragic story. (Expect nothing less with the melodies of Lady Gaga and the intensity of Joaquin Phoenix). The video ends with Arthur staring into a mirror with a hint of sorrow in his eyes.
