LOS ANGELES, July 20: “Deadpool 2” star Zazie Beetz is close to lock a deal with Warner Bros for a role in “Joker”.
The film, to be directed by Todd Philips, will feature Joaquin Phoenix as the Joker, one of the most notorious DC supervillains.
It will centres around the iconic arch nemesis of The Batman and the studio has described it as an “original, standalone story”.

Warner Bros has set a release date of October 4, 2019 for the film, which expected to start production in September this year.
Beetz most recently appeared in “Deadpool 2”, alongside Ryan Reynolds and Josh Brolin. She played Domino in the David Leitch-directed film.
