“I wouldn’t have thought of this as my dream role, but now, honestly, I can’t stop thinking about it. I’ve talked to Todd a lot about what else we might be able to do in general just working together, but also specifically: Is there something else with Joker that might be interesting?” – Joaquin Phoenix

“We had shot the second half of the scene where I’m at the gate. But we didn’t shoot me approaching him. And once we filmed that, I went back and we had lunch. And I was in the trailer and I was like, wait how am I gonna get this kids attention, what am I doing? I have the bag with all of my clown gear in it, why don’t I have the clown nose Why wasn’t I wearing that in the fucking scene? So I went back and I said to Todd, why wasn’t I wearing the clown nose? And he goes, ‘You always have the right idea after we fucking shoot! Why can’t you just think of this in advance’? ‘I don’t know man, it didn’t occur to me.’”

— Joaquin Phoenix (x)

toddphillips1: All of these were taken on our last day of shooting. It was bittersweet for sure— while it felt great to be done, we also had such an intense and unique experience— and then suddenly it just ends. What a ride this film has been and it all culminated with watching Joaquin walk up on that stage this weekend. Thanks again to the entire cast and crew. And especially the fans, for seeing through all the noise and showing up. #joker #illtellyouwhatyouget 📸@nikotavernise

I was not prepared, quite frankly [for the controversy around Joker]. I was taken aback by people talking about the level of violence in the movie as if it was irresponsible, when to Joaquin [Phoenix] and me, it had felt like the most responsible portrayal of violence I'd seen in a long time in movies.
When you put real-world consequence on violence, isn't that a responsible way of dealing with it? Isn't showing violence to be disgusting and horrible more effective and responsible than celebrating violence? And then it snowballed into other things about 'incel' culture – a term I had to actually look up on the internet.
[the] far left so easily sounding like the far right when it suits their agenda. What I meant by that is this – we all get up in arms about climate change deniers, right? We all go, 'How can you deny this?' But to me it's the same thing. Do we want to pretend that we're not failing as a human experiment? Do we want to pretend that these people don't exist? What is the harm in shining a light on that? Isn't that a good thing?
So I was surprised at that, becoming a tool to be used against the movie when it's like, isn't that what's great about being filmmakers – that we are able to explore these things in a safe environment? It's a movie, ultimately – and representation has never equalled endorsement, so it was baffling.

I do love how the same people who rabidly hate Todd Phillips for making a movie about a mentally ill man are the same people who rabidly defended James Gunn when he made dozens and dozens of jokes about raping children.

'Joker' Sequel in the Works as Todd Phillips Eyes More DC Origin Movies (Exclusive)
www.hollywoodreporter.com

The director is likely to reteam with star Joaquin Phoenix on a follow-up to the $1 billion-grossing R-rated hit, sources say.

On Oct. 7, Joker director Todd Phillips headed into Warner Bros. Pictures Group chairman Toby Emmerich’s office, buoyed by the film’s $96.2 million opening-weekend haul. Sources tell The Hollywood Reporter he proposed an outsized idea — the rights to develop a portfolio of DC characters’ origin stories. Emmerich balked. After all, Warner Bros. is very protective of the DC canon. And all other DC deals have been for one film, and one film only. But Phillips did emerge from the meeting with the rights to at least one other DC story, sources say. And now that Joker has crossed the $1 billion mark, a sequel is on the way. 

As the movie keeps raking in money overseas, Phillips is in talks to reprise his role as director for a second Joker outing (he and Scott Silver, who penned the gritty Joker screenplay, will write the follow-up). With Joker, Phillips already toyed with the idea of Bruce Wayne’s origins (a letter written by the mother of Arthur Fleck, aka Joker, implies that the two are half-brothers. But Penny Fleck might not have been telling the truth, given the Fleck family propensity to imagine things that haven’t taken place). 

As for a DC villain origin story that could be mined next, Phillips would be well suited for either Darkseid, a tyrannical ruler who is worshipped by some as the god of evil, or Metropolis’ power-mad one-percenter, Lex Luthor.
