Stunning new Joker 2 poster breaks records on X

We've already seen plenty of stunning movie posters in 2024, with illustrated, 80's style designs very much back in vogue. But judging by the online response to the new poster for the upcoming Joker sequel, we may already have a winner.

Joker: Folie à Deux arrives this October and stars Joaquin Phoenix in the titular role alongside Lady Gaga as Harley Quinn. The stunning new poster features the two mid-dance, apparently under by a spotlight, along with the tagline "The world is a stage". It's strikingly minimal – but not without a hidden detail for eagle-eyed fans.
