Director Todd Phillips shares new behind-the-scenes image of Joaquin Phoenix’s Joker

November 5, 2018 by Amie Cranswick

As filming continues on DC Film’s Joker movie, director Todd Phillips has shared a behind-the-scenes photo from the set of the movie which shows Joaquin Phoenix taking a quick break in full Clown Prince of Crime makeup and costume – the latter very reminiscent of Cesar Romero’s colour scheme from the 1960s Batman TV series; check it out here…

Joker centers around the iconic arch nemesis and is an original, standalone story not seen before on the big screen. Todd Phillips’ 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 is set for release on October 4th 2019 and 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).
