Joker 2 Ending Is ‘Unsettling,’ Says Director Todd Phillips

As a seasoned gamer and movie enthusiast with years of experience under my belt, I can confidently say that Todd Phillips has outdone himself yet again with Joker 2’s ending. I attended an early fan screening and, just like Phillips mentioned, I sat there for a good five minutes after the credits rolled, utterly stunned and processing what I had just witnessed.


Following the debut of Joker 2 at the Venice Film Festival, director Todd Phillips expressed his thoughts on the public’s response to the ending of the sequel “Folie à Deux.” Much like the first movie generated intense reactions due to its pivotal moment in the third act, Phillips anticipates that the conclusion of Joker 2 will provoke much discussion and reflection among viewers.

With the theatrical debut of Joker: Folie à Deux fast approaching, early test screenings are sparking a range of responses. At a recent preview screening, director Todd Phillips hinted that he has a good idea about how the conclusion of Joker 2 will affect audiences.

According to Phillips, as shared by /Film, many viewers who’ve watched this particular film remain seated for around three to five minutes at the end. Those who know him reach out via text or email afterwards, expressing that they require some time to digest the movie.

It seems to make things clearer and lessen any confusion you may have had from the initial film.

He concluded hoping that all fan queries would get answered in this one.

The reviews for Joker: Folie à Deux have sparked disagreement among critics. It’s yet to be determined if the overall public will view it favorably or unfavorably. However, Phillips’ statements hint that its conclusion may generate intense responses from viewers, potentially splitting them into different camps as well.

The sequel to “Joker,” titled simply “Joker 2,” will premiere in theaters on October 4, 2024. Joaquin Phoenix reprises his role as Arthur Fleck, while Lady Gaga takes on a portrayal of Harley Quinn. Zazie Beetz is back as Sophie Dumond, and Leigh Gill plays Gary, with Sharon Washington portraying Arthur’s social worker in this production.
