Guess why they chose a singer for the role. Spoiler: the Joker sequel will be a musical! This time Lady Gaga created some buzz among her fans and fashion lovers as well.

It wasn’t just an outfit of the day though. We’re going to see her on the big screen as Harley Quinn. We bet the critics will have to make the difficult decision — which Harley is better? In any case, we’ll enjoy watching them both.

She was spotted in New York.

Those strolling around Lower Manhattan might have seen a bit of chaos happening at City Hall. A bunch of people gathered around and a mysterious-looking person was walking down the stairs. Turns out it was Lady Gaga dressed up like Harley Quinn! By the way, the crowd was just a bunch of extras hired for the new movie Joker: Folie à Deux.

Gaga’s participation in the movie has been confirmed and is now official. She’ll be starring alongside Joaquin Phoenix in the Joker sequel directed by Todd Phillips. Yep, it’s the sequel to that incredibly successful movie that made a ton of money and won an Oscar back in 2019.

The sequel will be a musical.

Grace Randolph spilled the beans and revealed that the new movie is gonna give us different perspectives. Joker and Harley will also have some music therapy sessions in Arkham Asylum. The music’s gonna be similar to those Liza Minelli musicals — Cabaret and That’s Entertainment!

The costume is more than a cool outfit.

Harley Quinn has always been portrayed as a sexualized character. But, now she’s being reimagined as a strong and empowered character thanks to the feminist movement and the need for more diverse representation. Lady Gaga’s outfit in the movie is a tribute to this new and improved version of Harley Quinn. Besides, it makes a statement about how important it is to have diverse representation in pop culture.

Margot Robbie is excited to see the movie.

Margot played Harley Quinn in Suicide Squad in 2016, and she can’t help but want to see Gaga’s representation of the character. “I think she’s going to do an amazing job. It’s all I could’ve ever hoped for Harley was that she would become one of those characters, kinda like Batman or Hamlet, that gets handed from actor to actor. Everyone gets a go at playing them. I think it’s just a credit to her as a character that people want to see her in multiple iterations. I’m excited.”
