Before the premiere of the new "Joker" is almost here: the film will debut at the Russian screens already on 3 October. To brighten up your anticipation, made a compilation of facts about the new picture of Todd Phillips.
1. The creators do not like movies on comics
Paradoxically, the fact is that for the film adaptation of the comic book Joker meet people who are not particularly fond of supergeroyschinu. In an interview with the AP News producer Emma Tillindzher Koskoff admittedThat literally "can not see" movies on comics, even though she was trying to force myself to fall in love with them. The director and screenwriter Todd Phillips also tried to move away from stereotypes superhero movie, based on the films of Martin Scorsese and detectives '70s and' 80s. The first audience, this approach I liked.
2. Joaquin Phoenix really started to go crazy live in role
No, the madness of the hero is not passed on to the actor. In a recent interview with ET Canada Phoenix I toldHe had much grow thin
for the role of The Joker. Without consequences has not done: "It turns out that the loss of the weight in such a short time effect on the psyche, you really start to go crazy." All in preparation for the film actor dropped about 23.5 kg.3. The film won the "Golden Lion"
The jury really gave "the Joker" the first prize of the Venetian Film Festival. This news caused a great resonance: in the event of this magnitude do not expect to see the winners in the tape from director "Bachelor Party in Las Vegas." For comparison, in 2017 and 2018 received the prize "form of water"And" Roma ", respectively.
4. Director for a year to convince Warner Bros. give the film a high rating
The "Joker" a lot of violence and brutality, but we could see in theaters version with a lot of censorship. When the script was finished, Phillips took a year to convince Warner Bros. I agree with his vision of painting.
It is logical that a major film company wanted to reduce the rating to make the film accessible to a wider audience. In the end, the majority of comic book movies are rated no higher than 16+ (except "Deadpool»). But the director remained adamant in their opinion that no cruel and dark motives of the film will be quite different - and eventually defended his script.
5. In the film, there is a reference to the "Batman vs. Superman"
Although the Joker was in several movies kinovselennoy DC, Phoenix version should be considered a separate work. But this does not mean that the creators did not allow myself to have some fun and add references to the earlier films.
After the release of the second trailer fan noticed in the movie poster of the film "Excalibur". The same poster was visible in the scene of the murder of the parents of Wayne in "Batman vs. Superman". It is unclear whether it will somehow beat, or is it just an episodic Easter eggs.
