Joker 2, also known as Joker: Folie A Deux, is currently in production with Joaquin Phoenix reprising his role as the Gotham Clown and Todd Phillips returning as director.
While details on the plot have been kept under wraps, it has been confirmed that Lady Gaga will play the role of Harley Quinn, the girlfriend of Batman’s nemesis.
Recently, a video taken on the set in Los Angeles has surfaced, showing the presence of other Jokers alongside Phoenix’s Arthur Fleck. These individuals could be stuntmen and not play the role of the Joker. However, this video has sparked an intriguing theory about the plot.

The theory suggests that the Joker, played by Joaquin Phoenix, is not the character who will become Batman’s nemesis but rather a disturbed and sick man who will be an inspiration for the future King of Crime Clown. This theory is supported by the fact that Bruce Wayne is still a child in the first film.
