Movie fans, get ready for one of 2024’s biggest events! Joker: Folie à Deux, also called Joker 2, is coming to theaters on October 4, 2024. This sequel to 2019’s Joker is one of the most anticipated comic book movies of the year!
The first Joker was a huge hit, becoming the top R-rated movie ever until Deadpool & Wolverine recently took that title. Now, we’re diving back into Gotham’s dark world.
Director Todd Phillips returns, with Joaquin Phoenix reprising his Oscar-winning role as the Joker. But here’s the exciting part – superstar Lady Gaga joins as Harley Quinn! This dream team has fans buzzing worldwide.
While many details are still under wraps, the trailer gives us some tantalizing hints about the story. We find Arthur Fleck, Joker, institutionalized at Arkham, awaiting trial for his crimes as Joker. As he grapples with his dual identity, Arthur unexpectedly finds true love and discovers the music that’s always been inside him.
Great news for Nepal: We get to watch Joker 2 on October 4th, the same day as the global release! Unlike the delay we saw with Deadpool & Wolverine, there’s no waiting this time. We’ll be laughing and gasping along with the rest of the world on opening day!

Will Censorship Be an Issue?
The first Joker pushed boundaries with its dark themes and violence. Folie à Deux is likely to follow suit, potentially with some provocative musical numbers thrown in. While Deadpool & Wolverine recently made it to Nepali screens unscathed, Joker 2 might face a different challenge.
Reports suggest the film includes a nude scene featuring Lady Gaga. This could raise eyebrows at Nepal’s film board, even if the movie’s language and violence aren’t an issue. Given the recent precedent set by Deadpool & Wolverine, we’re hopeful that most of the film will remain intact. However, don’t be surprised if some of the more explicit scenes end up on the cutting room floor.
The countdown to chaos has begun! Whether you’re Team Joker, Team Harley, or just in it for the spectacle, Joker: Folie à Deux promises to be one of 2024’s most talked-about films. We’ll be watching this one like a hawk (or should we say, like a hyena?) to see how much of Joker’s madness makes it to our screens intact. Stay tuned for updates on any potential cuts or changes for the Nepal release!
Will Joker 2 Live Up To Joker’s Impact? A Spoiler-Free Review
Reviewers praise the film’s ambition and willingness to subvert expectations. Lady Gaga’s performance and her chemistry with Joaquin Phoenix receive particular acclaim. The musical numbers, while surprising, are generally well-received.
However, opinions split on the film’s execution. Some find the blend of psychological thriller and musical refreshingly unique, while others argue it leads to a disjointed experience. The pacing and narrative structure have been points of contention.
Production values, especially the cinematography and production design, garner consistent praise for creating an atmospheric Gotham City.
As for living up to the original, views are mixed. Some see it as a worthy, intriguingly different follow-up, while others feel it lacks the raw power of its predecessor. Ratings from major publications range from 2 to 4 stars out of 5.
Ultimately, Joker: Folie à Deux emerges as a polarizing film that, like its central character, defies easy categorization. Whether it matches the impact of the original seems to depend on one’s openness to its unconventional approach.
