"Happy Valentine's Day," the director said in the post, along with a picture of Gaga with blond hair, staring into the eyes of an in-love looking Joaquin Phoenix, who plays the Joker. She also shared the photo on her Twitter account.
According to Variety, Harley Quinn's character was portrayed by Margot Robbie in the 'Suicide Squad' films and 'Birds of Prey'.
Lady Gaga confirmed her association with the 'Joker' sequel in August last year, the outlet further said. The film has been described as a musical.
The Hollywood Reporter said that Todd Phillips wrote the script of the film with Scott Silver. The filming is currently underway in New York and Los Angeles. The film is scheduled to release on October 4, 2024, five years after the release of the first film.
