Warner Bros. has released the final trailer for the feature adaptation of the DC Comic supervillain Joker [JOKER]. Joaquin Phoenix [JPHOE] stars in an origin story of the clown prince of evil. Directed by Todd Phillips [TPHIL], Joker opens on October 4th.
Director Todd Phillips “Joker” centers around the iconic arch nemesis and is an original, standalone fictional story not seen before on the big screen. Phillips’ exploration of Arthur Fleck, who is indelibly portrayed by Joaquin Phoenix, is of a man struggling to find his way in Gotham’s fractured society. A clown-for-hire by day, he aspires to be a stand-up comic at night…but finds the joke always seems to be on him. Caught in a cyclical existence between apathy and cruelty, Arthur makes one bad decision that brings about a chain reaction of escalating events in this gritty character study.
