When it comes to Joker 2, there have been a lot of updates for us to digest this week. Firstly, it was revealed the next instalment of Arthur Fleck’s journey (played by Joaquin Phoenix) would be conceived as a musical. Yes, you heard that right!
And now, rumours are circulating the internet that Lady Gaga is joining the cast of Todd Phillips’ sequel, Joker: Folie à Deux. And apparently, she’s not just playing any ol’ character – but taking on the role of Harley Quinn.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Gaga is the hot favourite to switch out her make-up-free selfies and get into character as Joker’s sidekick and love interest.
While the Born This Way singer has yet to confirm the news, it’s important to note that Australian beauty Margot Robbie has popularised the role of Harley in the high-profile 2016 flick Suicide Squad and its sequel in 2021.
And some fans are not happy for Gaga to swoop on in and clinch Margot’s hard-working Harley crown. Come along with us, and let’s unpack why they’re so unhappy, and also discover everything else you need to know about the all-singing all-dancing sequel to the 2019 Oscar-winning flick.
Why are fans not happy about Gaga’s casting news?
Harley Quinn is such a beloved character in the DC Universe, and Margot Robbie has wowed fans in the role in past films – so naturally, fans do not think that anybody other than her can do the role justice.
“Nobody can play a better harley quinn than margot robbie,” on fan tweeted.
Another added: “There is only one Harley Quinn and thats Margot Robbie. PERIOD,” while a third echoed: “Margot robbie is the only Harley Quinn we need.”
However, others have praised Gaga’s casting and say it’s not all competition as she will be known for a different universe.
