The reaction around Joker 2: Folie a Deux has been nothing but negative, leaving audiences and critics disappointed.

With the first Joker film (2020) being so successful and winning multiple awards, it was a shock how poorly the sequel performed.


However, some believe it was destined to fail from the beginning, such as comedian Tim Dillon.

The 39-year-old stand-up comedian starred in the film as a security guard working in Arkham Asylum.

Although participating in the film, Dillon still labelled it a “disaster”, pointing blame towards its leading woman Lady Gaga.

“[Gaga] had no business of being on a movie screen,” he said.

Dillon shared how most of the other cast members knew the movie was going to fail during production, which isn’t common.
“You rarely know how bad something’s going to be,” he said.

“Everybody knew it was going to fail.”

The comedian didn’t stop there – labelling Lady Gaga as “irrelevant” in Hollywood.

Dillon did not comment on Gaga’s performance in A Star Is Born, released in 2018 in which multiple awards, including 4 Grammy’s, were won.

Yet, Dillon insisted: “Lady Gaga is simply not a good actress; she has no business being on screen.”

He continued to share how he didn’t enjoy the experience much, sarcastically sharing his “gratitude.”

“I’m grateful for the opportunity to spend three months sitting in a trailer in makeup while my face broke out. I’m now a small part of probably the worst film ever made.”

His embarrassment didn’t stop there, as he went to watch the film in theatres – which people were leaving halfway through.

“I saw it in Laguna Beach, and people were walking out of the theatre confused, befuddled, and angry.”

“I had a lot of suggestions on that set,” he added.

“Nobody listened to me because I was an unimportant nobody.”

These suggestions were to fire Lady Gaga.

“‘Fire Lady Gaga!”

“Fire her, fire her right now!”

“You’re paying her a lot of money, and what I’m seeing ain’t working.”

“Get her out of here!’”

He ended his rant by sharing how he won’t be showing this film to anyone.

“I cannot show this to anyone, ever.”

He concluded: “If I said I was in a movie and showed this to someone years from now, they would go, ‘Are you pranking me?’”
