'I've made a whole record about her': Lady Gaga still thinking about Harley Quinn at Joker sequel premiere

Lady Gaga has opened up about her difficulty in moving on from portraying her take on the well-known comic book character Harley Quinn in the upcoming Joker sequel.

In an interview with Sky News during the UK premiere of Joker: Folie à Deux, she confessed, "I'm not entirely sure if I did, since I've created an entire album focused on her."

As movie fans get ready to watch the Oscar-winning actress play the "true love" of Joaquin Phoenix's Joker, the singer of "Poker Face" revealed that she's going to release a 13-track album that will accompany the film.

"I believe the entire experience deeply motivated me," Lady Gaga confessed.

It was truly wonderful to discover this character through the combination of music, the script, dance, and the incredible teamwork involved.

Following the success of Joker in 2019, which earned two Academy Awards and grossed over $1 billion globally, director Todd Phillips and his star decided to explore a new direction. They aimed to revisit the complex character of Arthur Fleck/Joker with a fresh perspective.
