First Glimpse: Lady Gaga’s Striking Harley Quinn Transformation on Joker 2 Set

Recently, Lady Gaga was spotted in New York, fully embracing her role as Harley Quinn on the set of the highly anticipated sequel, Joker: Folie à Deux. Fans are ecstatic as this is the first time the pop icon has been seen with Harley’s trademark eye makeup and diamond-patterned attire since her casting announcement.

Chaos in Gotham: Protests and Clues

During yesterday’s shoot, Lady Gaga was surrounded by Gotham PD officers and a mob of Gotham’s citizens who seemed to be protesting. The crowd was adorned with Joker-inspired face paint and masks, and their signs with slogans such as “Free Joker” hinted at the plot and character developments we can expect in the sequel. This suggests that Arthur Fleck, the infamous Joker, may not escape justice for his actions on the Murray Franklin Show in 2019’s Joker.

Many of Gotham’s citizens can be seen with Joker-inspired face paint and masks and holding signs reading, “Free Joker.”

Harvey Dent’s Involvement: Teasing Two-Face?

Beyond the chaos, another intriguing detail emerged: a sign in the crowd reading, “Dent is the Clown.” This clue indicates that Harvey Dent, Gotham City’s prominent District Attorney and alter ego to the villainous Two-Face, will likely play a role in the upcoming film. At the same time, it remains to be seen whether Two-Face will make an appearance in Joker: Folie à Deux, the presence of Dent could suggest that he will be the one to bring Arthur Fleck to justice.

What We Know So Far About Joker: Folie à Deux.
