  • Joker (2019 Film) - Wikipedia
    Joker (2019 film) - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joker_(2019_film) Joker (2019 film) Joker is a 2019 American psychological thriller film directed by Todd Joker Phillips, who co-wrote the screenplay with Scott Silver. The film, based on DC Comics characters, stars Joaquin Phoenix as the Joker. An origin story set in 1981, the film follows Arthur Fleck, a failed stand-up comedian who turns to a life of crime and chaos in Gotham City. Robert De Niro, Zazie Beetz, Frances Conroy, Brett Cullen, Glenn Fleshler, Bill Camp, Shea Whigham, and Marc Maron appear in supporting roles. Joker was produced by Warner Bros. Pictures, DC Films, and Joint Effort in association with Bron Creative and Village Roadshow Pictures, and distributed by Warner Bros. Phillips conceived Joker in 2016 and wrote the script with Silver throughout 2017. The two were inspired by 1970s character studies and the films of Martin Scorsese, who was initially attached to the project as a producer. The graphic novel Batman: The Killing Joke (1988) was the basis for the premise, but Phillips and Silver otherwise did not look to specific comics for inspiration. Phoenix became attached in February 2018 and was cast that July, while the majority of the cast signed on by August. Theatrical release poster Principal photography took place in New York City, Jersey City, and Newark, from September to December 2018. It is the first live-action Directed by Todd Phillips theatrical Batman film to receive an R-rating from the Motion Picture Produced by Todd Phillips Association of America, due to its violent and disturbing content.

Noth, best known for his longtime stint as Detective Mike Logan on Law & Order and as the (in)famous Mr.Big on Sex and the City, is a fellow cast member from the Atlantic Theater Company’s NY production, while Pine, who is starring as the young Captain Kirk in the new film Star Trek and was recently seen in the Geffen’s production of Neil LaBute’s Fat Pig, is new to the LA production.

    CHRIS EAT CHRIS WORLD NHS students vote on which Hollywood Chris is the best of the best Addie Doherty//[email protected] Bergan Zebrauskas//[email protected] ttention all diehards, stans, and memers! Fans everywhere have debated this topic and it seems the time has come to finally answer the question pressing on everyone’s minds (yes everyone): Who is the best Chris? AHollywood is made up of many stars, and with a common name like “Chris,” it’s even harder to stand out. Of the four most famous Chrises -- Chris Evans, Chris Hemsworth, Chris Pine, and Chris Pratt -- with numerous collabs and crossovers between them during their careers, audiences have debated which of them is the best. In an attempt to answer this question, NHS students voted for their favorites, as well as for the funniest, hottest, the best actor, and the best role. Listen up folks, Chris Evans is the only single Chris on our list. (We’re not saying there’s a chance, just that no one’s looking to crush that dream anytime soon.) Evans, best known for his role as Captain America, is 39-years old, and has had many di erent iconic facial hair styles over the years. Evans is known to be more sensitive and passionate, o en supporting charities and visiting children in hospital...what a cool guy. He has also performed on Broadway, starring in “Lobby Hero.” Another big aspect of Evans’ life is his pooch, Dodger. Evans even got Dodger a matching sweater to repeat his iconic look in the movie “Knives Out” (2019).
