A digital artist named Jaxson Derr has shared an image that fuses Joaquin Phoenix and Willem Dafoe into a single, hybrid character. The artist suggests that the Joker could visually resemble a blend of these two actors, offering a fresh take on the character’s outward look.
Meanwhile, the Joker sequel with Joaquin Phoenix is already officially in the works. Todd Phillips, who directed the first film, is set to return behind the camera to guide the continuation. Fans across North America will be watching closely as production progresses, eager to see how the world of the Joker evolves while staying true to the somber mood and grounded storytelling that defined the original movie.
Industry chatter has begun to surface about what the sequel might reveal. Early spoilers circulating online hint that Joker 2 could lean even more into a chaotic energy, potentially escalating the psychological intensity and confronting viewers with bolder, more provocative moments than the first film. While specifics remain under wraps, the buzz suggests the narrative could push boundaries in ways that spark conversations about character arcs, morality, and the consequences of a society shaped by a fractured antihero.
As for Willem Dafoe, reports from earlier in the year noted his openness to revisiting the Joker mythos, potentially joining Joaquin Phoenix in a dual role as an impostor or a closely related antagonist. His involvement would add another layer of intrigue for fans who follow the evolving landscape of comic-inspired cinema, particularly as the project targets audiences in Canada and the United States where anticipation is high.
