Lady Gaga has announced a brand new album called Harlequin, with the project serving as a companion piece to Joker: Folie à Deux.
The upcoming movie, a sequel to the 2019 film, sees Joaquin Phoenix reprise his role as Arthur Fleck, with the character meeting Harleen ‘Lee’ Quinzel (Gaga) during his stint at Arkham State Hospital.
With fans looking forward to the film’s release next month (October 4), the singer announced via X/Twitter that she has recorded a companion album, with the title referencing the alter ego of her character.
“Harlequin. September 27. A companion album to Joker: Folie à Deux,” the singer wrote, with the post also including the album cover as well as an accompanying image of a milk carton.
With the release of the album set for Friday (September 27), the track listing for the project has been unveiled, with the 13 songs totalling 41 minutes and 20 seconds in all.
The track listing can be read below:
1. Good Morning
2. Get Happy (2024)
3. Oh, When the Saints
4. World on a String
5. If My Friends Could See Me Now
6. That’s Entertainment
7. Smile
8. The Joker
9. Folie à Deux
10. Gonna Build a Mountain
11. Close to You
12. Happy Mistake
13. That’s Life
Whilst Harlequin will be released in the coming days, fans still have a couple of weeks to wait for Todd Phillips’ film, though Gaga did recently tease that her portrayal of Quinn would be different to her predecessors.
“You know my version of Harley is mine, and it's very authentic to this movie and these characters,” she said. “I've never done anything like I've done in this movie before, so it's all going to be completely brand new and really fun.”
Lady Gaga's Harlequin is released on 27 September, whilst Joker: Folie à Deux is scheduled to be released in cinemas on 4 October.
