- Story Text: Actor Joaquin Phoenix and director Todd Phillips brought their 'Joker' - a movie about the iconic DC Comics villain - to the Venice Film Festival on Saturday (August 31).
Phoenix looked relaxed as he and Phillips arrived by boat on the Venice Lido.
He took time to greet fans and sign autographs and could be seen hugging a woman holding a banner reading "Joaquin you are my favourite actor, may I take a photo with you?'.
In "Joker", Oscar-nominee Phoenix plays Arthur Fleck, a failed stand-up comedian who turns into a psychotic murderer.
The movie, screening in competition in Venice, receives its world premiere at the festival later on Saturday. It is slated for release in the United States on October 4.
