Willem Dafoe has "fantasized" about playing an imposter Joker opposite Joaquin Phoenix
You know, I'm something of a Joker myself

Willem Dafoe hasn't exactly imagined himself playing the Joker – but he does have an idea about playing a fake version of the Clown Prince of Crime opposite Joaquin Phoe♏nix.
Phoenix played the Joker in the 2019 film of the same name, and while a sequel 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:may or may not be happening, Dafoe has🔯 an idea revolving around what he calls a "Joker imposter."
, in reference to people telling him he'd be perfect for the villainous role. "So it would be possible to have not duelling Jokers but someone that says to be the Joker that isn't the Joker. And that kind of opens up the possibility of an interesting story, particularly if you had Joaquin Phoenix's Joker, and then you had someone who was either imitating or riffing off what he did. I fantasized about that. But other than that I am not talking to anybody [about it], you're the first one."Dafoe recently reprised his role of Green Goblin in 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Spider-Man: No Way Home, and considering his part involved a lot of maniacal laughter and evil schemes, he does seem the 🅠perfect fit to play the Joker, real or fඣake.
As for when we'll see the DC villain on screen again, while nothing has been confirmed about the upcoming 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:The Batman, there is a rumor linking Eternals star Barry Keoghan to the role. At the moment, that's purely speculation – but 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Keoghan has been confirmed for𒊎 the cast.
The Batman arrives this March 4. In the meantime, check out our guide to watching 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:DC movies in order to get up to speed on the DCEU.
