Joker, 2019.
Directed by Todd Phillips.
Starring Joaquin Phoenix, Zazie Beetz, Frances Conroy and Robert De Niro.
The Clown Prince of Crime returns to the big screen this week as Warner Bros. and DC Films releases director Todd Phillips’ Joker, which sees Joaquin Phoenix taking on the role of the iconic Batman villain for this standalone origin story. Check out EJ Moreno’s thoughts on the movie in this video review…
Joker centres around the iconic arch nemesis and is an original, standalone story not seen before on the big screen. The exploration of Arthur Fleck (Joaquin Phoenix), a man disregarded by society, is not only a gritty character study but also a broader cautionary tale.
Joker stars Joaquin Phoenix (The Sisters Brothers), Robert De Niro (Goodfellas), Zazie Beetz (Deadpool 2), Bill Camp (Red Sparrow), Frances Conroy (American Horror Story), Brett Cullen (Narcos), Glenn Fleshler (Billions), Douglas Hodge (Penny Dreadful), Marc Maron (GLOW), Josh Pais (Motherless Brooklyn), Shea Whigham (Kong: Skull Island), Douglas Hodge (Robin Hood) and Dante Pereira-Olson (You Were Never Really Here).
