The clown prince of crime returns to the big screen in the anticipated sequel to DC Comics’ Joker (2019), “Joker: Folie à Deux” will premiere October 2 at Screenville Cinemas of Island City Mall and Alturas Mall.   

        Joaquin Phoenix reprises his title role as the Joker with pop star Lady Gaga as his love interest Lee Quinzel. Two years after the events of the first film, Arthur Fleck aka Joker, a mentally ill, criminal with a clown-inspired persona, is now a patient at Arkham State Hospital.
