Joaquin Phoenix returns to reprise his role as Arthur Fleck, aka the Joker, a character that earned him an Oscar for Best Actor, in the much-anticipated sequel to the 2019 blockbuster based on the iconic DC comic book villain. Watch Arthur's journey as he embarks on a mind-altering adventure alongside his new love, Harleen Quinzel, in the first-ever official teaser trailer for the eagerly anticipated "Joker: Folie a Deux."

Joining Phoenix is Lady Gaga, who takes on the role of Harley Quinn, the Joker's infamous psychotherapist turned partner-in-crime in this forthcoming DC sequel, described as a fusion of a jukebox musical and psychological thriller. However, it appears that Harley is a fellow resident of Arkham Mental Health Facility, residing alongside Arthur as he emerges as a symbol of societal and mental decay.

Returning to helm the director's chair is Todd Phillips, the visionary behind the original "Joker" movie, infusing his signature dark comedic touch into this bold reinterpretation of Batman's iconic arch-nemesis. "Folie a Deux" refers to a shared delusion between two individuals, hinting at the abundance of musical dream sequences featuring Phoenix and Lady Gaga as their characters navigate from the confines of a mental institution to the gritty streets of Gotham.

Mark your calendars, as "Joker: Folie a Deux" is set to hit theaters on October 4th.
