Joker Origin Movie Title & Release Date Officially Revealed
Warner Bros. gives Joker an official title and late 2019 release date. While WB is still flirting with the idea of a cinematic universe, the big move they've made is starting another branch at DC that focus on smaller, darker, and riskier projects. The label, reportedly titled DC Dark or DC Black, already has its first project gearing up. Todd Phillips is directing a Joker origin movie and it was recently confirmed that Joaquin Phoenix is set to star.
Production is rapidly approaching on the character piece as September is the targeted start. Casting is also progressing as Robert De Niro is reportedly being eyed for a role, while Frances McDormand passed on playing the Joker's mother. With everything falling into place, WB now has given Joker a release date.
Warner Bros. officially announced today that Joker is the title of the Joaquin Phoenix-led film and that it will hit theaters on October 4, 2019. This will give the project just over a year to film and then go through the post-production process.
