Our friends LadyGagaSource managed to interview Stunt Coordinator Shauna Duggins, and ask her questions about Lady Gaga's role in the upcoming Joker sequel: "Joker: Folie à Deux".
Here's our translation of their interview:
"I've worked with hundreds of actors, but I've never seen someone give themselves so much in a performance. It was so inspirational.
There's this gigantic surrealist musical number, inspired by a classic film from the 1930s. It's a very specific choreography with tap dancing that left everyone exhausted, except Gaga. She wouldn't stop.
[Gaga] is very focused and has a unique level of professionalism. She learned every routine very quickly, and in most scenes, she didn't want a stunt double. But what captivated me most was her kindness in everyday life. She interacted with everyone, without distinction.
She's a real actress. I've worked with great singers who tried to act, but they didn't have the expertise that the job required. Gaga has it all. She came from the theater. She knows how to do everything with mastery."

"Joker: Folie à Deux" starring Lady Gaga and Joaquin Phoenix is set to be released this fall, on October 4th.
The first trailer is expected to be released this April.
