Hollywood actor Joaquin Phoenix shared how he struggled to maintain his weight when he prepared for his role in the sequel, “Joker: Folie à Deux.»
When preparing for the «Joker» sequel, Hollywood actor Joaquin Phoenix admits it was a struggle to stay fit for the film.
During a press conference for «Joker: Folie à Deux», Phoenix revisited his controversial diet and said it was more difficult to maintain the second time around.
«I’m not going to talk through specifics of the diet, because I just think nobody wants to hear that. But this time, it felt a bit more complicated just because there was so much dance rehearsal that we were doing, which I didn’t have last time», Phoenix said at the Venice Film Festival, according to Variety.
«So, it felt a bit more difficult, but it is safe… you’re right, I’m now 49, I probably shouldn’t do this again. This is probably it for me.»
Phoenix referred to his diet regimen in 2019 when he revealed he lost more than 50 pounds to play the DC comic villain, Arthur Fleck.
