Joker 2 Award Predictions Affected By New Plot Details

The first Joker 2 award predictions are revealed along with the movie plot details, new cast members, and release date. Joker: Folie à Deux will premiere in 2024, but it seems like a couple of spots at the Oscars are secured for lead actors and director Todd Phillips. 

Joker was a truly breakthrough movie back in 2019. It was the first R-rated movie to gross over $1 billion. It entered the top 10 of the highest-grossing films of the year. Joker also received multiple accolades including Academy Awards and Golden Globes. All in all, it caused a lot of discussions even before the premiere. Considering the attention Joker gained, the sequel was just a matter of time. 

Earlier this year, Warner Bros. announced that Joker 2 has received its premiere date on October 4, 2024. Although there is plenty of time ahead, there are many rumors and confirmed details about the movie plot, characters, and cast. We have collected all the information about the sequel along with early-bird Joker 2 award predictions.

Everything We Know About Joker 2 So Far

The upcoming movie will be a Joker sequel titled Joker: Joker: Folie à Deux (Madness for Two). Joaquin Phoenix is back as Joker in the sequel, while Todd Phillips takes the director’s chair again. Also, there are rumors about Zazie Beetz’s return to her role of Sophie Dumond, Joker’s neighbor and imaginary girlfriend. However, new cast members are the most interesting part of Joker 2.

Lady Gaga has officially joined the cast of Joker: Folie à Deux in the lead female role. As events in the movie will supposedly take place in Arkham Asylum, Gaga’s character is no one else than Harley Quinn. Harry Potter star Brendan Gleeson has been cast in an unknown supporting role. There are rumors spreading that Glenn Close has joined the cast as Quinn’s mother, but there is no confirmation. However, you can bet on the actress to appear in Joker 2 at online betting sites in the US.

Following numerous movie sources, Joker: Folie à Deux will be a musical. This information caused a harsh discussion among fans of the original movie. The majority supposes that the sequel will just include a couple of musical numbers similar to the famous Joker stairs dance scene, so there’s nothing to be afraid of. Moreover, Phillips has previously produced a musical drama A Star Is Born and it was one of the most successful movies of the year that brought Gaga her first Oscar.

What About Joker 2 Award Predictions?

Making Joker 2 award predictions is a bit harder as the movie production hasn’t even started. It will begin this December. However, some editions and bookies like Bovada are brave enough to make predictions about possible Oscar nominations for the movie. They are based mostly on the success of the 2019 movie and actors’ achievements in the industry. So, let’s take a look at the earliest Joker 2 award predictions.

First of all, Folie à Deux is believed to bring its title actor his fifth Oscar nomination. Previously, Joaquin Phoenix was nominated for the Academy Awards four times winning one award for Joker. He became the second actor in history to win an Oscar for a character who was previously played by another actor with an award for the same role. The first example is Marlon Brando’s Oscar for his performance as Vito Corleone in The Godfather and Robert De Niro’s award for his portrayal of young Vito. With Joker 2, Phoenix can go further and win the award for the same character twice. 

Following online gambling sites in the US, other Folie à Deux actors can expect nominations for the Oscars. The role of Harley Quinn might bring Lady Gaga her fourth nomination and second award. Also, Brendan Gleeson has a chance to receive an Oscar nomination in the supporting category. 

Joker 2 award predictions for Best Picture and Best Director are possible considering his past nominations for the original movie. All in all, the number of nominations and accolades will fully depend on the quality of Folie à Deux, so let’s wait for it to hit big screens in 2024.
