Joaquin Phoenix won an Oscar in 2020 for his portrayal of the Joker in the 2019 film. A masterpiece praised by critics that contrasts radically with the film that has been released in recent days about the life of the Gotham character: 'Joker: Folie a Deux'.

The Joker sequel has not achieved good reviews from film critics and this fact is wreaking havoc on the box office takings in the first days. One of the notable aspects of the film is the participation of the American singer Lady Gaga, playing the role of Harley Quinn, the Joker's girlfriend.

Lady Gaga has spoken out about the fierce criticism from movie specialists in the run-up to the premiere, although she has not done it directly, it has been through her close circle, who has been responsible for conveying the mood of the singer.

According to the Daily Mail, and through a close source, Lady Gaga "is surprised by the response to 'Joker 2' and is shocked that people don't like it after the response it received from critics before its premiere".

The singer wants to continue to on the big screen

She had high expectations with her participation on the big screen, perhaps too high since according to this source: "She is disappointed because Joker is practically a failure. She thought this film could get her an Oscar nomination," a thought especially motivated by her co-star's Oscar win with the previous film.

The Joker sequel has set off alarm bells regarding Gaga's future as an actress and she has itted that "her team is quietly looking at other projects they can implement, as they want to move forward with this as quickly as possible".

To conclude, the Daily Mail has provided some information about the next project in which the singer wants to get involved: "She would now like to get a role in Quentin Tarantino's next and last film. Nobody knows what it will be, but she wants to audition."
