“All it takes… is one spark to set two minds on fire.”

The Clown Prince of Crime returns — but this time, he’s not alone. In the long-awaited JOKER: FOLIE À DEUX, the first official trailer offers a twisted, surreal, and captivating glimpse into the next chapter of Arthur Fleck’s descent — now accompanied by a new voice in his madness: Harley Quinn, played by Lady Gaga.

Directed once again by Todd Phillips, and starring Joaquin Phoenix in his Oscar-winning role, this sequel dives deeper into the fractured psyche of Gotham’s most infamous figure — through music, delusion, and shared destruction.

🃏 Plot Overview: When Madness Meets Melody

Set in the bleak, dreamlike aftermath of the 2019 film, Folie à Deux finds Arthur Fleck institutionalized in Arkham State Hospital. There, isolated from the world and tormented by hallucinations, he meets Dr. Harleen Quinzel — a psychologist whose curiosity turns to obsession, and whose obsession turns into something far darker.

As the lines between patient and doctor blur, their shared psychosis begins to bloom into a haunting love story — twisted, theatrical, and tragically romantic. Together, they perform their own version of reality — one filled with music, chaos, and blood-red stage lights.

“This isn’t a love story. It’s a duet… in madness.”

🎬 Trailer Highlights:

• A haunting piano motif builds as Arthur stares at his reflection, face painted — but smiling, not laughing

• Gaga’s Harley gazes through the bars, her voice echoing: “You see me, don’t you?”

• Dreamlike musical sequences blend reality and hallucination in dazzling transitions

• Gotham erupts in protest again — but this time, the Joker is not dancing alone

• Final shot: Arthur and Harley holding hands as flames reflect in their eyes, whispering the same line in sync: “Let’s put on a show.”
