As a dedicated follower of cinema and a connoisseur of Joaquin Phoenix’s transformative acting abilities, witnessing his brother-sister duo grace the red carpet at the Joker: Folie à Deux premiere during the 81st Venice International Film Festival was nothing short of magical. The sibling bond between Joaquin and Rain was palpable, adding a heartwarming touch to an already highly anticipated event.


On a star-studded Wednesday night, I couldn’t help but gaze adoringly at my sister Rain as she stood by my side on the red carpet for the premiere of Joker: Folie à Deux. Her unwavering support means the world to me

At the 81st Venice International Film Festival, the siblings posed together with smiles for cameras outside Sala Grande during the event

In the upcoming movie “Folie à Deux,” Joaquin, aged 49, will once again take on the character of Arthur Fleck, also known as the Joker, with the film scheduled to hit theaters on October 4th

The actor wore a smart black tuxedo with a white shirt, bow tie and a pair of sunglasses for the hotly-anticipated event.  

In a brown velvet dress and oversized sunglasses, Rain, aged 51, stood alongside her brother, striking poses

This upcoming movie serves as the long-awaited sequel to the 2019 blockbuster hit, “Joker,” which not only won an Academy Award but also raked in over $1 billion at worldwide box offices, making it the highest-grossing R-rated film ever

In the next part, we find Arthur Fleck confined within Arkham, waiting for his trial after being accused of his criminal acts, known as the Joker

In the midst of his battle with his twofold personality, Arthur encounters genuine affection, all while uncovering the music that had long resided within him, as stated in a recent press release

Previously, when Joaquin portrayed The Joker as Arthur Fleck, he needed to shed approximately 15 kilograms. His meal plan consisted primarily of lettuce, asparagus, and apples

After five years, he reprised his Oscar-winning role and stated that he needed to shed almost the same amount of weight yet again, a feat he claims he will not repeat

At the Venice Film Festival, he mentioned: “I won’t delve into details about my diet, as I believe people generally aren’t interested in hearing about it.”

However, this experience seemed slightly complex due to the abundance of dance practices compared to my previous occasion, as I lacked such extensive rehearsals last time

As thrilling as it was, pushing my limits seemed a tad tougher, yet secure. You hit the nail on the head; at 49, I might not be able to relive these moments again. This could very well be my swan song

He added: ‘I know I was responsible last time for talking about it, but it’s difficult to do so. 

‘That becomes your obsession because you’re working the entire time to get to a certain weight.

In the end, it’s as if they’re discussing the topic, and their conversation seems like an actor who keeps boasting about their weight loss

After completing that run, I felt exhausted of my own self and annoyed with myself for overreacting about that particular issue, as it’s just a matter of doing what one is expected to do. This time, I decided, ‘I won’t make such a fuss about it’
