According to ComicBook.com, DC has released footage from the new Joker movie that shows Joaquin Phoenix's Arthur Fleck smoking a cigarette after seemingly causing some kind of chaos. This scene of Fleck making his way out of the subway seems to fit with earlier photos and videos released, which reveal a sequence featuring Fleck and a bunch of other characters dressed like clowns invading a train. The subtle suggestions are that there will be a definite socio-political angle to this version of the Joker, with Phoenix's Arthur Fleck possibly being the metaphorical embodiment of a certain major political figure of today.
