As it usually goes with first teasers, this one doesn’t reveal much, but it was enough to get fans excited. It did, however, give us a general vibe of the movie that, according to the director Todd Phillips, is still taking shape.

This gripping teaser has been described as an homage to Martin Scorsese’s Taxi Driver and King of Comedy, which certainly isn’t a coincidence. After all, the Joker movie just happens to star Robert De Niro, who played the lead roles in both of these classics.

This film will serve as the origin story of Gotham’s clown prince of crime, and it offers a series of snippets into his past before he fully embraces his villainous persona. It’s safe to expect that future trailers will reveal more about actual plot, but we’ll have to wait until October 4 to see this movie in full.

Todd Phillips (The Hangover) will co-write and direct the movie, and Martin Scorsese will produce it with Phillips.

The untitled movie about the origins of The Joker, is the first to be produced under a yet-to-be announced separate banner with the intent of creating unique storylines for the studio’s iconic heroes and villains.

The Joker has played a memorable part in several Batman movies, portrayed by Jack Nicholson, Heath Ledger, and most recently Jared Leto in the first Suicide Squad film. Leto will reprise his role in the Suicide Squad sequel, however, Philips’ film is most likely going to feature a different and perhaps younger actor.

The Clown Prince of Crime origin movie will feature an intriguing setting in the form of a gritty and grounded crime film set in early 80’s Gotham City, much like and similar to a Scorsese film from that era, rather than a DC movie.

A source reports that Phillips and Silver have begun writing but there’s no decision where this movie will fit into the DC schedule.
