The Heyman Hustle can confirm that Joaquin Phoenix’s Joker movie will begin filming on September 22nd in New York City and is expected to wrap around December-February of next year with production offices said to be closing at the end of February.
The cast consists of Phoenix, Frances Conroy, Robert De Niro, Zazie Beetz, and Marc Maron.
There is word that the standalone DC Comics film is possibly targeting an R-rating as nudity is said to be involved in some smaller female roles, most likely female strippers as the Joker origin movie is apparently going by the story the title character was a failed comedian who performed in strip clubs.
Warner Bros. has set the release date for October 4th, 2019.
