You guys are all so boring. Since when Gaga disapoints in any of her projects? It can be your taste or not (like her jazz persona for me) but everything she touches is amazing. What a flop fans, have some faith!

From the comments on here I swear some of y’all are expecting Camp Rock type of musical and IDK if that’s embarrassing or hilarious or both :saladga:

Y’all are fans of ****ing Lady Gaga. Cmon now. If she is thinking about it then she has a great reason for it. Also as a movie fan I can guarantee you Joaquin would never look at a bad script and decide to do it if it’s bad. There is clearly something great in this and I don’t know how some of you knowing Gaga can think this would be a bad idea. 

Hasn’t it not been written yet?

The picture the director posted of the red cover/Joaquin looking through it is the script! I think it's complete/mostly done

World of Reel wrote a post about the movie today (https://www.worldofreel.com/blog/2022/6/eoo7cq65pofbzc2o138e7bjrx2cd1b) which states that one of his friends who has connections at WB heard that the screenplay "has shades of Leos Carax’s 'Holy Motors'". He might be a bit messy, but from what I can remember he's been kinda reliable with scoops/doesn't just make stuff up, so who knows.

The first one had a modern dance bathroom scene, a Broadway song written by Sondheim and dream sequences with Arthur imagining things...

I think we're good and I can't wait for this really original and exciting project.

Then there's the fact that she hasn't committed to anything and is just in talks. So.......yeah.

This is clearly for them to see how the GP reacts to the news. So far it’s been 90% for and like 10% against. Pretty sure she’ll do it at this point.

plus this will sadly alienate a huge swath of the comic book movie crowd who may have been seeing their first LG movie if it was just joker 2 the non-musical lol

Sorry, but I don't get it. Her fans who love BTW and ARTPOP are "scared" for Gaga. They want her to pick "SAFE" acting projects that wouldn't alienate the GP or annoy comic fans... A bit disingenuous, imo. 🤔

Gaga does what she wants. This is her 3rd movie and she does NOT have to play it safe, just like she didn't play it safe back in 2011, when she released her 3rd album, BTW, instead of TFM 2.0.  

It seems like Gaga is even more impatient when it comes to acting, simply because she's not 25 anymore. By the time ASIB made her a leading actress and movie star, she was 32! 

She wants to try NEW things, a musical, a superhero movie, etc. Joker 2 is like hitting 2 birds with one stone, lol.

Sure, a Joker musical sounds weird, but Joker (2019) won an Oscar for BEST SCORE. It sounds... operatic. Listen on youtube.

It really won't help Gaga to be part of this and the fanbase will ****ing eat her alive for thinking maybe her casting had something to do with the vision to change it to a musical.

Lol no. The ONLY person who gets to decide whether it's a musical or not... is JOAQUIN Phoenix.

No Joaquin, no Joker 2. Simple as that. 🙂

The producers had to convince him to do a sequel. He has yet to sign a contract, apparently. 

For all we know it's HIS idea. He can sing, and he's directed music videos.

i’ve seen a few industry people saying this has been a done deal for a bit, but this is just the way these things are announced for whatever reason. i don’t think JP would be posting pictures of the script if he wasn’t in

Maybe?? But even then, I feel like making it musical, at any capacity, gives the film a sense of campiness that I don't know it necessarily needs.

We have NO idea what kind of "musical" it is. 

Rock opera? Sung-through musical, or musical drama? Something like Elton's Rocketman, with FANTASY sequences?

If it's anything like the Oscar-winning score for Joker (2019), it's not campy. 🤔 

Who wrote the songs? New songs? A MIX of new and old songs? 

Will Gaga be a writer? Producer? So many questions, lol.
