'Joker' Clip Gives First Look at Joaquin Phoenix 'Laughing' in Full Makeup
Not so serious now!
Camera test footage for "Joker" has finally given fans a glimpse of Joaquin Phoenix as The Clown Prince of Crime.
Todd Phillips' movie only just recently shared the first official photo of Phoenix as Arthur Fleck, who becomes DC's infamous villain.
Now we can see the Joker in "full white" makeup. This may not be his final look, since "Joker" is an origin story about Arthur finding his crazy self. Plus, they just started filming.
Here's the new post, from director Todd Phillips:
Well done. The song is "Laughing" by The Guess Who. The lyrics sound perfect for this story.
In the first set photos, we saw Phoenix's Arthur have some kind of altercation with a clown. That could be where he picks up the idea for this new look.
Phillips has been doing an A+ job teasing out "Joker" photos so far -- just enough -- so hopefully he keeps this up without going overboard by the time the film releases in theaters on October 4th, 2019.
