Will Joaquin Phoenix's Joker Meet Robert Pattinson's Batman in Future Movies?

Will Joaquin Phoenix‘s Joker ever encounter Robert Pattinson‘s Batman in future movies?

Joker director Todd Phillips shut down that notion and says it will never happen.

“No, definitely not. There will be many more Jokers, I’m sure, in the future,” Todd told Variety.

Perhaps another actor will take on the role of Joker to play the iconic character for Robert Pattinson‘s Batman universe.

Joker will be released in theaters on October 4, while Robert Pattinson‘s The Batman won’t hit theaters until 2021.
