Lady Gaga once again captivated audiences with her stylish appearance at the Venice Film Festival. The multi-talented star arrived in a breathtaking black gown and dazzling Philip Treacy headgear for the premiere of 'Joker: Folie a Deux,' as reported by People magazine. She dazzled on the red carpet alongside co-star Joaquin Phoenix, director Todd Phillips, and her fiance Michael Polansky.

Gaga's black gown featured a plunging neckline, but it was her glittering lace headpiece that truly caught everyone's attention. The highly anticipated sequel to the 2019 'Joker' film is slated to hit theatres on October 4, 2024, following its Venice debut.

The original 'Joker' film garnered critical and commercial success, winning the Golden Lion at Venice in 2019 and earning 11 Oscar nominations, including a Best Actor win for Joaquin Phoenix. In the sequel, Phoenix returns as Joker, with Lady Gaga joining the cast as Harley Quinn. The film will also feature Brendan Gleeson, Catherine Keener, Jacob Lofland, Harry Lawtey, and Zazie Beetz, who reprises her role as Sophie.

According to reports, the sequel will be a musical, building on Phoenix's memorable dance scenes from the first film. Lady Gaga emphasized the uniqueness of her interpretation of Harley Quinn, stating, "My version of Harley is mine, and it's very authentic to this movie and these characters." She urged fans to experience the film in theatres for its full impact, adding, "This film has music, it has dance, it has amazing acting in it. I loved working with Joaquin and Todd. I've never done anything like this before, so it's all going to be completely brand new and really fun."
