The official teaser trailer for musical Joker: Folie à Deux is here, and it looks like the Clown Prince of Crime has found his queen.

The sequel to the 2019 supervillain origin story, Joker: Folie à Deux catches up with clown-themed criminal Arthur Dent (Joaquin Phoenix), whose life doesn't appear to have gotten much better since we last saw him. Now a patient at Arkham State Hospital, Arthur dreary existence is changed when he finds a kindred soul in fellow patient Harley Quinn (Lady Gaga).

Of course, their mad love can't be kept to the confines of a hospital. The pair soon begin wrecking havoc as a dangerous duo, set to a cover of "What the World Needs Now is Love."

Joker: Folie à Deux arrives in theatres Oct. 14.
