Joker 2star Lady Gaga has teased her take on Harley Quinn – and it sounds like something all new for the Clown Princess of Crime.
“You know my version of Harley is mine, and it’s very authentic to this movie and these characters,” Gaga revealed toAccess Hollywood(H/TDeadline). “I’ve never done anything like I’ve done in this movie before, so it’s all going to be completely brand new and really fun.”
So far, Joker 2 hasone full length trailer, which showcases Gaga’s Harley. It looks like she’s a patient of Arkham this time, rather than a psychiatrist, and it seems she’ll be the bad influence on Joker in areversal of their usual dynamic in the comics.
Not much can be gleaned about the plot of the movie from the trailer beyond a glimpse at Joker and Harley’s crime spree, a musical number, anda wedding that features a returning characterfrom the firstJokermovie. There areplenty of Easter eggs to spot in the trailer, too, including the return of those infamous stairs.
The film is arriving under theElseworldscategory, which means it’s not part ofJames Gunnand Peter Safran’sDCU Chapter One: Gods and Monsters, much like Matt Reeves’s Bat-verse exists as its own separate thing.
