Lady Gaga's Harley Quinn Debut: A Brand New Take in 'Joker: Folie a Deux'

Los Angeles, May 27 (PTI) - Lady Gaga discusses her fresh interpretation of Harley Quinn in the highly anticipated 'Joker: Folie a Deux.' Gaga's version promises a unique and authentic take, setting it apart from previous portrayals by Margot Robbie. Starring alongside Joaquin Phoenix, the film releases on October 4.

Singer-actor Lady Gaga says her version of Harley Quinn, her character in the much anticipated movie ''Joker: Folie a Deux'', will be different from its previous iterations.

In the film, a sequel to Todd Phillips ''Joker'', she will star opposite Joaquin Phoenix, who reprises his Academy Award-winning role of Arthur Fleck aka Joker from the 2019 movie.

Gaga said her Harley Quinn will be a ''completely brand new'' rendition of the character from the DC comic books or previous films in the franchise.

"My version of Harley is mine, and it's very authentic to this movie and these characters. I've never done anything like I've done in this movie before, so it's all going to be completely brand new and really fun,'' the Oscar winner told entertainment news outlet Access Hollywood.

The character has been previously portrayed by Margot Robbie in franchise films such as ''Suicide Squad'', ''Birds of Prey'', and ''The Suicide Squad''.

''Joker: Folie a Deux'' also stars Catherine Keener, Brendan Gleeson, and Zazie Beetz. Phillips' film is part of DC Elseworlds and is not set in the universe taken care of by new DC Studios heads Peter Safran and James Gunn.

The musical will hit the screens on October 4.
