Phillips’ Joaquin Phoenix-starring origin picture hasn’t even been released yet, let alone had its world premiere at the Venice Film Festival, but, by the sounds of it, Phillips is so convinced that he’s hit a homerun with “Joker” that he’s not ruling out a sequel. Speaking with Total Film, Phillips actually sounds pretty keen on the idea of “Joker 2”: As mentioned, the fact that Phillips isn’t even opposed to the idea of a second Joker seems rather odd, considering how “Joker” has been depicted as an anti-comic book movie by almost everyone involved in production. However, one must look at its current box-office prospects — the movie is now projected to have a box-office opening weekend of $77 million (despite its R-rating) and, if reviews turn out to be great at the fall fests, that total could go much higher.
