Why so serious?
Well, the serious news is Barry Keoghan has more or less confirmed that he will be returning as The Joker in the upcoming DC sequel The Batman 2. In an interview, with an American magazine, it was mentioned that he would be returning as the psychopathic clown to which he did not deny.
Fresh off his success with Saltburn, Keoghan expresses desire to achieve different transformations, voices, and physical challenges — all of which he would be able to do with The Joker.
“For me, I physically want to go somewhere. I want to physically change and take on a certain walk or a certain voice and really do a character piece.”
All hail the Clown Prince of Crime!
