What is The People’s Joker about?
An aspiring clown grappling with her gender identity combats a fascistic caped crusader.
The People's Joker is a 2022 American superhero parody film directed by Vera Drew, and written by Vera Drew and Bri LeRose. The film unofficially parodies characters from the Batman comics, and the main character is a transgender woman based on the Joker, played by Drew. The film also features Scott Aukerman, Tim Heidecker, Maria Bamford, David Liebe Hart, Robert Wuhl, and Bob Odenkirk in supporting roles. The film premiered on September 13, 2022, at the 2022 Toronto International Film Festival, but subsequent planned screenings of the film at the festival were canceled due to "rights issues." However, the film did eventually receive wider release, with a screening at the Outfest film festival in 2023, followed by limited theatrical screenings and home media in 2024.
