I’m immediately torn on Joker getting a sequel. Despite all of the meme culture around it and the massive misunderstandings of who and what the film represented, I loved the movie, especially Joaquin Phoenix’s Oscar winning portrayal. In a world of constant interconnected universes, it was interesting to see such an iconic comic book character explored in a fresh, grounded way in a standalone story. A sequel doesn’t mean the start of the JCU, and will likely remain focused on Joker and his further descent (or would that be ascent?) into madness, but the title gives us a few hints.
