‘Her descent into madness’- Joker 2 fans love Lady Gaga’s Harley Quinn with smokey eye make-up, Joaquin Phoenix’s Arthur Fleck also spotted dancing for musical sequence

Joker 2‘s Lady Gaga looks deranged as Harley Quinn wearing smokey eye make-up and a new gritty diamond patterned costume while filming in New York on Sunday. The Folie à Deux film crew were spotted shooting a musical sequence involving Joaquin Phoenix‘s Arthur Fleck wearing a shabby suit in clown make-up. But DC Film fans and Gaga stans are more in awe from witnessing the actress’ transformation.

The iconic stair dance from 2019’s Joker was performed once again by Joaquin Phoenix for Sunday’s filming of Joker: Folie a Deux. Though this time, the Bronx dance scene was filmed with Lady Gaga’s Harleen Quinzel as Joker’s dancing partner.

Gaga’s Harley was also heard singing while dancing chaotically with a horde of extras portraying Gotham City Police surrounding her. It appears the Joker is subdued by the cops while Quinn is hysterically laughing. Other than her new diamond pattern attire, Gaga as Harley was also sporting short blonde hair – a change from the character’s iconic long hair.

The Joker 2 film crew was quick to cover up the shooting spot after the paparazzi got a fair amount of set images featuring Harley and Joker together. The set pictures have taken social media by storm, amping up DCU fans’ expectations to see the two Batman villains, especially Harley’s descent into madness. Readers can check out reactions below.

Joker fans praise Harley Quinn’s hysterical dance and new design

Harley Quinn’s smokey eye makeup is similar to Battinson’s dark eye shadow but Quinzel’s mascara looks spine-chilling, unlike the Dark Knight. Critics and fans are praising the design calling it, “This is cinema”. Director Todd Phillips was spotted in a few Joker 2 set pics speaking with the lead stars before filming the Bronx scenes.

Recent set images have hinted Harley and Joker would be romantically involved in Folie a Deux. But Zazie Beetz‘s Sophie Dumond from the first film, Arthur’s love interest is also confirmed to return.

It’s unclear how much of Harley Quinn’s arc from the source material would be adapted for Folie à Deux. Quinzel appears to be a patient in Arkham Asylum, as indicated in set images. But it remains to be seen if she will be introduced as a psychiatrist or therapist in the DCU Elseworlds sequel.

Joker: Folie a Deux flies into theaters on October 4, 2024.
