Box Office: 'Joker 2' Scores $120+ Million Worldwide Opening; Bombs In North America

Los Angeles, October 7 - Warner Bros. Pictures' high-profile sequel Joker: Folie à Deux bombed at the domestic (North America) box office with a shocking $40 million opening weekend. This is less than half of what the first movie grossed in the first weekend ($96 million) in 2019. ## Directed by Todd Phillips, Joker 2 is having terrible reviews all around from critics as well as audiences. It is the first comic book movie in history to score 'D' CinemaScore while Rotten Tomatoes score is also around just 30% for both, critics and audiences. ## While the domestic opening of the film is a disaster with a rebound unlikely, Joker 2 has a respectable overseas start in the projected range. At the international box office, the Joaquin Phoenix/Lady Gaga-starrer grossed $81 million from 70 markets in the 6-day opening weekend. ## The UK was the biggest international market for the sequel with an $8 million debut, followed by Germany ($6.9 million), Italy ($5.6 million), Mexico ($5.5 million) and France ($5 million). In India, the movie remained poor with approximately $1.65 million (14 crores gross) after a 5-day weekend.## The worldwide opening of Joker 2 is $121 million which is poor. Joker in 2019 scored a worldwide opening of $247 million, leading its way to a $1+ billion finish. The sequel, which cost $200 million in production, needs over $400 million to break even which is looking difficult.## Stay tuned...

Warner Bros. 'Joker 2' Box Office Projection Revealed

Los Angeles, September 12 - Warner Bros. Pictures' sequel to the 2019 psychological thriller Joker is hitting theatres this October and it seems the hype is fading away after the recent screening where the movie received average reviews. ## As for the box office, the Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga-led Joker: Folie à Deux is tracking to open less than its predecessor at the domestic box office. According to Deadline, the blockbuster sequel is projected to open with $70 million - $80 million in its domestic (North America) opening weekend. ## If Joker 2 opens to the projected lines, it would be $26 million less than Joker which scored $96.2 million in the domestic weekend, as per Box Office Mojo. A couple of weeks ago, the movie was projected to open with $100+ million, which is now looking difficult, per the latest projection. ## Joker 2 currently has a 62% critic score on Rotten Tomatoes, which, interestingly, is similar to the original movie after its Venice and TIFF premiere. So there is a possibility the sequel might follow the same path at the box office as well, but as of now, it looks a far cry. ## Directed by Todd Phillips, Joker was a monster hit for Warner Bros. with $1.08 billion at the worldwide box office, including $335.5 million domestically. The studio is hoping for a similar turnaround with the sequel as well. ## Set two years after the events of Joker (2019), Arthur Fleck, now a patient at Arkham State Hospital, falls in love with fellow inmate Lee. As the two experience musical madness through their linked insanity, Arthur's followers start a movement to liberate him. ## It is scheduled to debut at the US box office on October 4. ## Stay tuned...

Lady Gaga Gets A Huge Payday To Play Harley Quinn In DC's 'Joker 2'

Los Angeles, August 12 - Warner Bros. is believed to be in the confusion regarding its future timeline under the new leadership of Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav. The studio under Zaslav has spoken about building a 10-year plan for DC films, that would be similar to the structure that Alan Horn and Bob Iger put together very effectively with Marvel boss Kevin Feige at Disney. ## Warner Bros., however, despite announcing its plans to expand DC Universe, has greenlit only Joker: Folie à Deux as a new film. The follow-up to the wildly successful 2019 "Joker", which grossed $1.07 billion globally, also has been set for October 4, 2024, release. ## The sequel of "Joker", meanwhile, will cost much bigger than the original film which was made in approx. $55M-$70M budget. According to Variety, both Joaquin Phoenix and director Todd Phillips will be paid a massive $20 million each to return to star and direct the movie. Meanwhile, Lady Gaga has been roped to play the iconic Harley Quinn in "Joker 2", and she will be getting $10 million for the same. ## The final cost of making the movie is expected to reach $150 million, including salaries, combined with the cost of producing complicated musical sequences. It is going to be one of the costliest DC films, however, it is still cheaper than most superhero movies. ## While only "Joker 2" has been greenlit yet, several other DC properties have been in development as feature films, some for years — "Wonder Woman 3", "Superman", "Zatanna", and "Static Shock". Writer-director Matt Reeves is also on track for a sequel of "The Batman" with star Robert Pattinson. ## Stay tuned...
