Joker: Folie À Deux is heading to streaming, just weeks after its theatrical <br>
<br>
release. <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
The movie, starring Joaquin Phoenix and Lady <br>
<br>
Gaga, will be available to rent from home starting October <br>
<br>
29, in an effort to recoup some of Warner Bros. investment into the film, as per Variety.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
The musical, which bombed at the box office, is 'poised to lose at least $150 <br>
<br>
million to $200 million in its theatrical run' according to the publication.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
The movie studio spent about $200 million to produce the film and about $100 million on marketing and distribution, according to the report.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
It would need to gross about $450 million at the <br>
<br>
box office to break even — when factoring in the cut taken by <br>
<br>
theaters — though Warner Bros. sources claim the number is $375 million.<br>

<u><strong>Terrifier 3 dethrones Joker: Folie À Deux as box <br>
<br>
office champ</strong></u><br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
A Warner Bros. spokesperson responded to the report, saying 'Any estimates <br>
<br>
suggested by anonymous "insiders" or "rival executives" are grossly wrong and continues <br>
<br>
a trend where rumor is reported as fact.'<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
'The film continues to play in theatrical release, included with this week's opening in China, and will continue to earn revenue throughout its home viewing and ancillary run.'<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
So far, the musical about Batman's nemesis has grossed $51.5 million domestically and $165 million globally after two weeks of release.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
In comparison, the first Joker grossed $96.2 million domestically and $248.4 <br>
<br>
million globally after three days of release.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
The hotly-anticipated sequel to the 2019 billion dollar Oscar-winning film <br>
<br>
was considered a surefire hit for Warner Bros Pictures, yet ended up <br>
<br>
being slammed by critics and failed to ignite at the box office. <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Joker: Folie À Deux has garnered the lowest CinemaScore in comic book movie history as the film bombed at the <br>
<br>
box office on opening night. <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
The psychological musical thriller — which has been criticized as <br>
<br>
'bleak' and 'disappointing' — officially released in theaters on Friday, <br>
<br>
October 4.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Phoenix reprised his role as the Joker in the sequel, <br>
<br>
which had earned him an Oscar for his portrayal in the 2019 film,<br>
<br>
while Gaga took on the role of Harleen Lee Quinzel (Harley Quinn).<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
However, Joker: Folie À Deux has been given a D rating on CinemaScore — <br>
<br>
the lowest score for a comic book movie.<br>

Madame Web — which notably also flopped in theaters earlier this year and also received terrible reviews — holds <br>
<br>
a higher score with a C+.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<u><strong>On Rotten Tomatoes, the movie <br>
<br>
currently holds an audience score of 31% and a critic score of 32%.</strong></u><br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
The sequel has been roundly criticized for being <br>
<br>
a musical and 'ignoring' the DC fanbase - with an agent familiar with director Todd Phillips' process telling Variety he <br>
<br>
'wanted nothing to do with DC' during the making of the film, <br>
<br>
with DC bosses James Gunn and Peter Safran notably absent from <br>
<br>
the film's LA premiere afterparty last month. <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
A source said: 'If the first movie was about some down-on-his-luck, mentally ill guy in a downtrodden city, it makes maybe $150 [million] worldwide.<br>
<br>
Not a billion. People showed up because that guy was Joker.'<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
In an apparent snub by Phillips, the opening sequence of the film <br>
<br>
does not include a DC Studios logo.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
A Warner spokesman added that a DC logo appears at the 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 DeLuca,<br>
<br>
Chairperson of Warner Bros. Entertainment, and CEO Pamela Abdy seemed 'unwilling' <br>
<br>
to say no to Phillips due to his huge past successes.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
It is claimed Phillips would 'only' speak with DeLuca and Abdy rather <br>
<br>
than Gunn and Safran - who took control of <br>
<br>
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 screening for the studio but <br>
<br>
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 merged in April <br>
<br>
2022 and was 'open to filming in Los Angeles if the director would make the sequel <br>
<br>
at a lower price point.'<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<b><u>The studio wanted to film in London which would have cost around 20 per cent <br>
<br>
less.</u></b><br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
A source directly involved with the film recently shared: 'The one thing about genre stuff: If <br>
<br>
you don't listen and pay attention to what the fan expectations are, you're <br>
<br>
going to fail'; director Todd Phillips seen with Gaga and Phoenix <br>
<br>
at the LA premiere September 30<br>

<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<b>However, Phillips insisted on filming in LA with the <br>
<br>
budget remaining static.</b><br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<b>A Warner spokesman told the publication the studio 'supported the decision to <br>
<br>
film in Los Angeles'.</b><br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
A source directly involved with the film said: 'No one could get through to Todd.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
And the one thing about 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 Film <br>
<br>
Festival, but Phillips pushed back - with a Warner spokesman saying the studio 'fully supported the <br>
<br>
decision to bring the 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, <br>
<br>
Zazie Beatz and Steve Coogan. <br>
