Joker
Screenwriter Max Landis squeeze a conversation between Lois Lane and The Joker , enigmatically hinting at things to come for the DC duo . The acclaimed film writer is known for his work onChronicleandVictor Frankenstein , but has also turned his talents to writing for strip in the past . He wrote DC’sAmerican Alien , a 2015/2016 miniseries exploring the origins of Superman , a well - received series that has led to DC fans calling for more of his employment in the larger risible universe .
American Alientells the Superman origin story in a novel way , focus on several separate incident in Clark Kent ’s immature life , from childhood through to his other daylight as the Man of Steel . The series stop after only seven issues ( which was always the intent , and the short run is not related to the reception of the serial ) , but a recent tweet from Landis advise that he may be returning to the DC population - or even combining the two with a move to the DCEU .
Landistweetedseveral paragraphs of duologue this workweek , captioned only"some sketching of something for later . “The dialogue is between Lois Lane and the Joker , with the reporter interviewing the Clown Prince of Crime . The interview reveals a unlike side of the Joker , one where he fully admits to the ' Joker ' being a form of persona , or exaggeration of his ' real ' ego . “I’m not saying the Joker is a whole different person than me , he ’s an hyperbole of me , you know?“Take a look at the full exchange in the tweet below :

The screenwriter does not clarify exactly what he is crop on this dialogue for , but it ’s clear that he ’s break to be collaborating with DC again on some kind of project in the near future . Of of course " later " could refer to any clock time , so this may not be something that fans will see finished presently , but the fact that he is mention it in public , even as cryptically as this , suggests that the project will be announced in the coming weeks or calendar month .
It ’s highly likely that this is a trace at a proceeds to the comic side of DC , with some variety of follow up toAmerican Alien . Several fans asked the writer if this is something that would be appearing in that laughable universe . While Landis did not affirm or abnegate the connection , he did expand on the tweet inresponseto a input that mentionsAmerican Aliento say:“The inquiry I take my Joker to enquire is : if he still murdering people with an acid spitting heyday , what does " literal " even think ? "
While any mention of DC , especially of characters who have already appear in the DCEU , is likely to spark speculation about the possibility of this talks appear in future films - that ’s a in particular unlikely scenario . The Joker ( Jared Leto ) of the DCEU is not one who would be probable to have this sort of self - aware conversation with Lois Lane ( Amy Adams ) , nor is there any obvious coming film where the two would interact . Instead , this seems to be a look at an upcoming comic series that will bring in together Lois and one of the greatest villains of the DC human beings - which may have in mind that Landis is bringing his style to a wide mountain range of characters , and even taking a crack at Batman as well as Superman at some level in the future tense .
