The ensemble cast includes returning 'Joker' star Zazie Beetz alongside newcomers Brendan Gleeson, Catherine Keener, Jacob Lofland, and Harry Lawtey.
The original 'Joker' stirred both controversy and acclaim upon its 2019 release, amassing over USD 1 billion globally and earning the title of the highest-grossing R-rated film in box office history.
