While Lady Gaga might still be seen mostly as a pop icon, she is an Oscar-winning actress and someone who can clearly hold her own in stellar movies alongside heavyweight actors. We’ll next see Gaga on the big screen in Joker: Folie à Deux, where she’ll apparently be blowing us away.
Casting director Francine Maisler told Deadline the following when speaking about the actress: "Man, she’s good. Joaquin blows your mind, but that she could keep up with him, and be real — and not just wiped off the screen by what that role is and what the performance is — shows she’s good."
Lady Gaga will be playing Harley Quinn in Todd Phillips’ sequel to 2019’s Joker. It’s likely we’ll see a new take on Quinn and Joker’s relationship in the movie, especially considering its musical nature.
The film’s casting director has hyped up her performance.
"Lee is very special to me. She’s a really vulnerable, sweet person. My version of Harley is mine."
Harley Quinn will get a new origin story in October.
And as you might expect, it also offers "some strong violence".
The anticipated sequel will star Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga.
It’ll cost $200 million when all is said and done, so Warner Bros. is clearly hoping it wins big at the box office.
