Director Todd Phillips may be going in another direction for the sequel to ‘Joker’. Lady Gaga is in talks to take the role of Harley Quinn opposite Joaquin Phoenix in a musical, which would be a departure from the dark tone of the first movie. Joaquin hasn’t yet signed on officially, but was photographed reading the script.
