Watch the Joker movies in release order, starting with Joker (2019) and continuing through Joker: Folie à Deux (2024). The series spans 2 films, released between 2019 and 2024. Audiences rate the franchise 6.8/10 on average.
For most viewers, release order is the recommended way to watch Joker. This is how the story was crafted and revealed to audiences — earlier films seed details, callbacks, and twists that pay off in later entries. Watching in release order preserves those reveals and matches the pacing the filmmakers intended.
Joker largely tracks its own in-universe chronology, so release order and chronological order overlap closely. You can use either without losing much, though release order is still the safest first watch.
A series centering on a failed stand-up comedian who is driven insane and turns to a life of crime and chaos in Gotham City while becoming an infamous psychopathic crime figure.
Each film builds on the previous one, rewarding viewers who watch in sequence.
