Lady Gaga's Alias 'Lee' on 'Joker 2' Set: Cinematographer Reveals the Surprising Connection

TL;DR Summary
Lawrence Sher, the cinematographer for the upcoming "Joker: Folie à Deux" sequel, revealed that he never met Lady Gaga on set because she was presumably in character the whole time. Sher initially felt a disconnect with Gaga until he started calling her "Lee," a nod to her character Harley Quinn, which improved their connection. The plot details for "Joker 2" are unknown, but it has been described as a drama with musical elements set in and around Arkham Asylum. The film wrapped production earlier this year and is set to release on October 4, 2024.
