"Joker: Folie à Deux" Officially Wraps Production

Lady Gaga has finished her part of filming, as announced by a cast member on Instagram.

The Joker sequel, starring Lady Gaga and Joaquin Phoenix has ended filming in New York City after 8 months of work, starting in September 2022 in Los Angeles.

Lady Gaga herself had the honor to announce the title of the sequel alongside her casting as the main character next to Academy Winner Joaquin Phoenix back in August.

The first picture of the movie was then published by director Todd Phillips on his Instagram, where he shared a first look at the "Joker" in Arkham Asylum. Later on the same day, he replied to a comment from LadyGagaNow revealing that Lady Gaga would start shooting later in January.

A few weeks later, Lady Gaga herself shared her first picture from the set next to co-star Joaquin Phoenix.

After a few months of secretive shootings in LA, the cast and crew then moved to New York City in the final weeks of March to shoot more scenes around the city. Lady Gaga was finally spotted in full Harley Quinn attire walking inside a New York City court.

Fans gathered around the filming area shared a few videos of the shootings online, sending the whole internet into a frenzy.

After a few days, the cast of Joker: Folie à Deux moved to the Bronx to film the last scenes around the now-so-called "Joker stairs," where Lady Gaga recorded a performance of Judy Garland's "That's Entertainment."

The first Joker movie grossed more than 1 billion dollars back in 2019 and gave Joaquin Phoenix his first Oscar for Best Actor.

The highly anticipated Joker sequel starring Lady Gaga and Joaquin Phoenix will hit theaters in October 2024.
