Joker

January 1, 2017

Director Todd Phillips

Genre Crime | Drama | Thriller

Cast Joaquin Phoenix, Zazie Beetz, Robert De Niro, Bryan Callen

Rating R

Release Date October 4th, 2019

“A failed stand-up comedian is driven insane and becomes a psychopathic murderer.”

Co-written and directed by Todd Phillips, best known for Old School, The Hangover, and War Dogs, Joker is an original standalone origin story of the iconic villain not seen before on the big screen, it's a gritty character study of Arthur Fleck, a man disregarded by society, and a broader cautionary tale. The bar was set VERY high by Christopher Nolan and the late Heath Ledger, so fingers crossed this movie holds up - check out the official trailers below!!

Ted Takes Film Facts, Joker:

  • Three of the previous actors who have played the Joker - Jack Nicholson, Heath Ledger, and Jared Leto - are Oscar winners (with Ledger winning for playing The Joker). Joaquin Phoenix has been nominated for an Oscar three times.

  • The goal for this film is to ignite a new company that will produce stand-alone DC movies.
