http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/joker-harley-quinn-movie-scores-crazy-stupid-love-filmmakers-write-direct-1032210

Writers/directors are in final negotiations: Glenn Ficarra and John Requa (script: Bad Santa, dir:"Crazy, Stupid, Love", Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, script & dir: I Love You Phillip Morris, Focus)
Jared Leto and Margot Robbie will reprise their roles.

Quote:
The film is described as a “criminal love story,” according to one source, featuring the two murdering maniacs who are cornerstones in the Batman mythos. One insider offered this: "an insane and twisted love story. When Harry Met Sally on benzedrine."


Will release after Suicide Squad 2, which is looking for a director.


TWIN PEAKS is "something of a miracle."
"...like nothing else on television."
"a phenomenon."
"A tangled tale of sex, violence, power, junk food..."
"Like Nothing On Earth"

What happened to Joaquin Phoenix being the new Joker? Too bad those turned out to be just rumours. Sad

The Joaquin Phoenix Joker one is a different film then the Leto Joker film. It seems they are trying to just make DCEU films and see if any will hit the right cord as only Wonder Woman has done well for them. The Joaquin Phoenix one is supposed to be a standalone Joker film not tied to DCEU.

With the Phoenix Joker, they are doing these films as standalones that are not part of DCEU in an attempt to attract bigger name actors that do not want to be tied to a role for multiple films.

my 2 cents:


Letos joker looked like, and acted like, a mash up of if macklemore and macaulay culkin had a bratty spoiled scene/rave kid always high on molly.

Nothing about that character did I personally like. Not once in the movie when he was on screen did I think he was a good joker.
it was always
...wtf...is this crap? So edgy mr leto! Quit trying to do an episode of 'Pimp My Joker' here.

I really could no see him in any scene and not make a connection of this is just what kevin from home alone would be in 20 years due to his abandonment issues, and he embraced the edgy alternative scene lifestyle.

That makes absolutely no sense to me if you're trying to create a universe or whatever. I'd love to see Phoenix as the joker, but seeing someone else as Joker in another movie after that would be ridiculous. I assume Leto would be pissed also.

If done right. Pheonix could be original joker that kills letos robin who becomes the joker. If the get a younger batman for pheonix joker. Tell two tales. And in the mean time deage leto in pheonix joker movies so hes todd. And then dies in movie two when pheonix retires. Do a suicide squad three with the prequel where they find todd, wounded on the beach somwehere infected and get hauled into the asylum. And suicide squad could have todds origin as the joker.

Quinn doesnt have to be original jokers she could be todds quinn.

But wb is just doing mainstream stories with no idea how to bind them into a universe. They dont need to. Just do live action dc animated movies. And thats it. Dont need to sign on actors for 10 or so years. Dont do the mcu formula cause they cant figure out connections. Just do bad ass movies.

Quote:
Glenn Ficarra and John Requa, who are writing said spinoff, reveal in a new Metro interview that the film lies somewhere in between “Bad Santa” and “This Is Us.”

“It is great. The whole thing starts with Harley kidnapping Dr. Phil. Played by Dr. Phil hopefully. Because her and the Joker are having problems with their relationship,” Ficarra says. “We had so much fun, I don’t know if we have had more fun writing a script in our career.”

“It was sort of like, we wrote ‘Bad Santa’ a couple of years ago, and it was that sensibility mixed with our ‘This Is Us’ sensibility. We kind of meshed them together,” he Ficarra. “We were doing a relationship movie but with the sensibility of a ‘Bad Santa,’ f—ed up, mentally deranged people. It was a lot of fun.”

Looks like another hit for WB and DC Laughing
