You’ve seen the photos and likely gawked at Joaquin Phoenix’s bad guy bob, but it’s now time for Warner Bros. to announce its full ensemble cast for Joker.
Front and center is Phoenix as Arthur Fleck, a man “disregarded by society.” He anchors this dark and brooding crime saga alongside Robert De Niro, who plays a smug and popular talk show host desperate for fame.
Fleck, on the other hand, is the failing comedian who’s about to venture down a dark and dangerous path from which there is no return, so it’s easy to see how the Todd Phillips-directed Joker spinoff is drawing story cues from both The Killing Joke and De Niro’s King of Comedy.
And the ensemble cast? Well, it’s really something special.
