People showed up because that guy was Joker.'<br> <br> <br> <br> In an apparent snub by Phillips, the opening sequence of the <br> <br> film does not include a DC Studios logo.<br> <br> <br> <br> A Warner spokesman added that a DC logo appears at the <br> <br> end of the Joker sequel, while Phillips declined to comment to the publication.<br> <br> <br> <br> Several frictions are said to have developed between Phillips, DC and Warner- with claims that Michael <br> <br> DeLuca, Chairperson of Warner Bros. Entertainment, <br> <br> and CEO Pamela Abdy seemed 'unwilling' to say no to Phillips due to <br> <br> his huge past successes.<br> <br> <br> <br> It is claimed Phillips would 'only' speak with DeLuca and <br> <br> Abdy rather than Gunn and Safran - who took control of DC two months before production began on Joker 2 in December 2022.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> Gunn and Safran did attend the first director's cut <br> <br> screening for the studio but Phillips fueled rift speculation when he told a reporter: 'With all <br> <br> due respect to them, this is kind of a Warner Bros.<br> <br> movie.'<br> <br> <br> <br> Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav also met with Phillips shortly after WarnerMedia and Discovery <br> <br> merged in April 2022 and was 'open to filming in Los Angeles if the director would make the sequel at <br> <br> a lower price point.'<br> <br> <br> <br> The studio wanted to film in London which would have cost <br> <br> around 20 per cent less.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> A source directly involved with the film recently shared:<br> <br> 'The one thing about genre stuff: If you don't listen and pay attention to what the fan expectations are, <br> <br> you're going to fail'; director Todd Phillips <br> <br> seen with Gaga and Phoenix at the LA premiere September 30<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> However, Phillips insisted on filming in LA with the budget remaining static.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> A Warner spokesman told the publication the studio <br> <br> 'supported the decision to film in Los Angeles'.<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> A source directly involved with the film said: 'No one <br> <br> could get through to Todd. And the one thing about <br> <br> genre stuff: If you don't listen and pay attention to what the fan expectations are, you're <br> <br> going to fail.<br> <br> <br> <br> Insiders also claim studio bosses did not want to premiere the film at the Venice <br> <br> Film Festival, but Phillips pushed back - with a Warner spokesman saying the studio <br> <br> 'fully supported the decision to bring the <br> <br> film to Venice. <br> <br> <br> <br> Along with Gaga and Phoenix, other stars that had appeared in the sequel include Brendan Gleeson, Catherine Keener, Zazie Beatz and Steve Coogan. <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> Christopher NolanJoaquin Phoenix<br> <br> <br> <br> Also visit my page; คําหน้าพวงหรีด - http://pr.lgubiz.net/bbs/board.php?bo_table=free&wr_id=915249
