Moviegoers who went to see “Joker” at the Alamo Drafthouse in downtown Los Angeles got a big surprise on Saturday night when Joaquin Phoenix showed up for an unexpected Q&A session.
Dressed in a grey hoodie supporting the Animal Liberation Front — one of his longtime personal social causes — Phoenix went from theater to theater to say hello to fans and answer questions about his performance as Arthur Fleck, the mentally ill outcast of Gotham City who becomes the infamous Joker.
In the clip above, you can see Phoenix talk about the scene featured in the trailer where he dances on a set of stairs.
