Y'all, I think we might finally get to see the iconic moment when Bruce Wayne's parents get killed.

If there's pearls hitting the ground in slow motion I'm walking out.
Todd Phillips (“The Hangover” franchise) is on board to co-write and direct. Jared Leto will not appear in this Joker film. Leto played the Joker in 2016’s “Suicide Squad” and is expected to be back for the “Suicide Squad” sequel, along with another standalone Joker movie that will be separate from Phoenix’s Joker project.

Scott Silver is a co-writer with Phillips on the Joker origins film, which will delve into how the Joker became a criminal mastermind. Robert De Niro is portraying a talk-show host who plays a part in driving Phoenix’s character to go mad. Zazie Beetz and Marc Maron are also starring.
Baldwin and Joaquin won't have much help it seems.

EDIT:
It's rumored that Baldwin will be playing a Trump-like 80's businessman interpretation of Wayne. Oh no.

Probs not even really filming anything for the role; they will use footage from his SNL bits with some dialogue voiceovers.

todd phillips?

looks i'm VERY immature, so i love phillips' work (road trip, old school, the hangover trilogy, due date, project x, war dogs)...but these are all stupid comedies (even war dogs...had some dramatic moments, but was def a comedy)

is this joker movie a comedy? why in the world would anyone think he can pull of a dramatic-type move that the joker would require?
the film will likely get an R rating due to female nudity and carry a modest $55 million budget which is much smaller compared to other comic book based movies.
have a feeling this will be a disaster (even with phoenix in it to try and save it)

Yes, the "I'm here for the gang bang" guy is directing the film.

Didn't that tragic event happen in the original Batman with Michael Keaton?

They're probably going to adapt "The Killing Joke" which is the joker origin story where he went from a nobody stand up comedian to the joker through a series of tragicomedic mishaps.
