We know that pop music royalty, Lady Gaga has been actively continuing her acting path with a role in "Joker: Folie à Deux", the upcoming sequel to the 2019 Oscar-winning comic-book based film, "Joker", playing Harleen Quinzel, the love interest to the notorious Arthur Fleck (Joaquin Phoenix) where they are both patients at Arkham State Hospital. Their feelings are expressed through musical numbers performed throughout while the followers of the deranged Fleck attempt to break him out.
But what was unexpected was a companion album from Gaga, "Harlequin" that was just released and features songs performed in the movie. There are Gaga versions of Hollywood musical showtunes ("Good Morning", "That's Entertainment", "If My Friends Could See Me Now") and classic pop songs ("Get Happy", "That's Life", "Close To You"). The record also features two original tracks; "Happy Mistake" and "Folie à Deux" written by the singer and inspired by her character. But Gaga has also made clear that her next studio album is still on the horizon.
"Joker: Folie à Deux" is due in US theaters on October 4, 2024
