The Joker and Mr. Rogers are heading to Toronto.

The Toronto International Film Festival unveiled its 2019 lineup, which is led by "Joker" starring Joaquin Phoenix.

“This is our first entry into the superhero world as far as I can remember,” said TIFF executive director Joana Vicente. “But it’s a really original vision. It’s disturbing, utterly compelling, really gripping from start to finish. ... And one of the most remarkable things is that Joaquin Phoenix, in a career of great performances, gives one of his very best.”

Among the 16 gala selections and 37 presentations is the upcoming Mr. Rogers biopic "A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood," starring Tom Hanks as the beloved children's TV host.

The lineup includes several movies that will be eyed for awards season contention, including "Ford v Ferrari" with Matt Damon and Christian Bale, the adaptation of the bestseller "The Goldfinch," and Steven Soderbergh's "Laundromat" with Meryl Streep.
