Joaquin Phoenix breaks silence on controversial Joker 2 ending

As a seasoned gamer and a die-hard fan of DC Comics, I’ve seen my fair share of sequels that either lived up to or fell short of expectations. Joker 2 has certainly stirred up quite a storm among fans, and after watching it myself, I can’t help but feel a mix of emotions.


Regardless of whether you loved or hated it, the Joker 2 ending is here to stay. It’s sent the internet into meltdown, but Joaquin Phoenix hasn’t weighed in… until now.

In just a few days, it’s clear that Joker 2 isn’t exactly the film DC enthusiasts were expecting. The divisive ending, in particular, has sparked much discussion – though it could potentially set the stage for another Harley Quinn movie.

In summary, Arthur was convicted for all charges of murder, learned that Harley no longer wanted anything to do with him, was sent back to prison after being apprehended again, and ultimately met his end at the hands of another prisoner.

The Joker 2 ending – particularly the final death scene – was deemed “pretty good” by one person at least: Joaquin Phoenix himself.

As a gamer, I recently shared with IGN my thoughts about a particular death scene in a game that left quite an impact on me. What struck me was the sense of warmth it carried, which made the moment more genuine and heartfelt. In this scene, there’s a young character who cracks a joke, and you can tell he’s nervous as hell before sharing it with you. But I decided to listen anyway because it turned out to be a pretty good one.

Joaquin Phoenix breaks silence on controversial Joker 2 ending

In simpler terms, Director Todd Phillips, who has received a significant share of criticism for the poor reception of Joker 2, concurred with Phoenix’s viewpoint. He suggested that the ending of the film achieved something for the character of Arthur that the initial movie had not managed to do before.

I find Joaquin incredibly beautiful in that particular scene. It’s a minor detail, not the focus, you know, aside from the death aspect. The moment when he looks at the child and offers a polite laugh – it seems like an expression of appreciation for the comedy and for taking risks.

While Phillips and Phoenix might feel positively about it, that doesn’t mean everyone else does.

“A fan expressed on Twitter that the ending of ‘Joker 2’ was so disappointing it could potentially spawn a real-life Joker character.

In our own words, “Arthur’s story doesn’t have a terrible conclusion, but the issue lies in the fact that the film lacks the payoff from Phillips’ U-turn. The entire movie feels ambiguous: its portrayal as a comic book adaptation, its casual references to broader Gotham (Harvey Dent ends up with half his face scarred, a subtle detail added merely as an Easter egg), and its disappointing, frustrating musical sequences.

As a die-hard fan, I’m excited to share my insights about the latest release, Joker 2! Ever wondered who really pulled the trigger on poor Arthur Fleck? Look no further as we delve deep into the mystery. And brace yourself for the most chilling scene that will leave you utterly terrified.
