Joaquin Phoenix will be seen on the big screen in "Joker" opening Friday, but he already has his next movie lined up, and he'll be filming in New Orleans.

According to a new report, that King of Comedy connection is getting a little more obvious, as Robert De Niro is officially in talks to join Joaquin Phoenix in the DC standalone film.
