Pictures shared highlights of the event on Instagram, including a video where Phoenix and Gaga are seen embracing. The post was captioned, "Joker and Harley. Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga reunite on the red carpet in London. #JokerMovie." The duo was joined by director Todd Phillips as they interacted with fans and posed for pictures.

Phoenix surprised fans at the event with tickets to the premiere, while Lady Gaga took time to meet and greet attendees. Joker: Folie à Deux is highly anticipated and was among 21 films competing for the prestigious Golden Lion award at this year’s Venice Film Festival. The film is scheduled to release in India on October 2, followed by a global release on October 4.

Joaquin Phoenix’s portrayal of the Joker in the 2019 film earned him the Best Actor Award at the 92nd Academy Awards. Directed by Todd Phillips, the first Joker film told the story of Arthur Fleck, a struggling comedian who descends into madness, reshaping the fate of Gotham City. The movie also starred Zazie Beetz, Frances Conroy, Marc Maron, Brett Cullen, and featured Robert De Niro in a cameo.

In Joker: Folie à Deux, Lady Gaga takes on the role of Harley Quinn, a character previously portrayed by Margot Robbie in the Suicide Squad films and Birds of Prey.
