Academy Award winner Joaquin Phoenix becomes a Joker inspired by Mark Hamill’s version from Batman: The Animated Series in a stunning concept design.
The multiverse is upon us with both DC Films and Marvel Studios bringing back actors from previous superhero eras. From Michael Keaton returning as Batman to Alfred Molina back as Doc Ock, the possibilities for what can happen in comic book movies feels endless. Since continuity appears to be flexible nowadays, Joker was a massive success critically and financially, and instead of Joaquin Phoenix returning for a sequel, the actor could return to the role in Robert Pattinson’s The Batman trilogy as a different version.
Joaquin Phoenix’s Joker in the 2019 film was grounded in reality by applying clown makeup like Heath Ledger’s version in The Dark Knight. If Phoenix ever plays Joker again, he could return with a new look in the same way Jared Leto’s will look different in Zack Snyder’s Justice League. Digital artist William Gray created a new look for Phoenix’s Joker that is inspired by Batman: The Animated Series and it looks incredible. You can check out the fan art below.
