The sequel finds Arthur Fleck (Joaquin Phoenix, 49) institutionalized at Arkham, where he awaits trial for his crimes as Joker.

While struggling with his dual identity, Arthur stumbles upon true love with Harley Quinn (Gaga) while at the asylum and finds the music that’s been in his head all along.

After meeting, the couple dances, kisses, breaks out of their straight jackets, and wreaks havoc on Gotham City.

When the villain is in jail, Harley Quinn visits him and tells him that he can “do anything he wants.”

THE FIRST FILM

The 2019 film broke the box office and grossed over $1 billion globally.

It had Arthur Fleck as a failed comedian walking the streets of Gotham City.

He had two masks – the one he uses for his day job as a clown and the other is a guise he projects in an attempt to feel like he’s part of the world around him.

Arthur began a slow descent into madness after being isolated, bullied, and disregarded by society.

That is when he becomes the criminal mastermind known as The Joker.
