Interest in the untitled project has swirled since the first two pictures surfaced, with many speculating that this iteration of Batman&#8217;s arch-nemesis is a failed stand-up comic \u2014 especially following the casting of Robert De Niro, who&#8217;s said to be playing an inversion of his &#8220;King of Comedy&#8221; character.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"pmc-related-link read-more\">\n\t\t\t<strong class=\"pmc-related-type\">Read More:<\/strong><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.indiewire.com\/2018\/09\/joker-joaquin-phoenix-clown-makeup-camera-test-1202005876\/\" title=\"\u2018Joker\u2019: Joaquin Phoenix Debuts His Clown Makeup in Todd Phillips\u2019 First Look Screen Test \u2014 Watch\">\u2018Joker\u2019: Joaquin Phoenix Debuts His Clown Makeup in Todd Phillips\u2019 First Look Screen Test \u2014 Watch<\/a><br \/>\n\t\t<\/aside>\n<p>Phillips offered the following rationale for releasing the photos more than a year before the film arrives in theaters: \u201cHere\u2019s the issue.

So I figure, may as well put out some good ones.\u201d Beetz is said to be playing Sophie Dumond, the love interest of Arthur \u2014 Joker&#8217;s name before he becomes the Joker. She first came to widespread attention for her role in &#8220;Atlanta&#8221; and also played Domino in this year&#8217;s &#8220;Deadpool 2,&#8221; another comic-book movie.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"pmc-related-link read-more\">\n\t\t\t<strong class=\"pmc-related-type\">Read More:<\/strong><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.indiewire.com\/2018\/09\/the-joker-joaquin-phoenix-photo-todd-phillips-1202004125\/\" title=\"\u2018The Joker\u2019: Todd Phillips Shares First Look at Joaquin Phoenix in Character\">\u2018The Joker\u2019: Todd Phillips Shares First Look at Joaquin Phoenix in Character<\/a><br \/>\n\t\t<\/aside>\n<p>Marc Maron, Bill Camp, Brett Cullen, Glenn Fleshler, and Shea Whigham also star in the film; Alec Baldwin was cast as well, but had to drop out.
