Todd Philips' JOKER Movie Adds THE HANGOVER Actor Bryan Callen As "An Aging Dancer/Stripper"

Though it doesn't sound like it's going to be a substantial part, The Hangover's Bryan Callen has revealed that he'll rejoin director Todd Philips on his upcoming Joker movie.

Here’s what the actor/comedian had to say during the latest episode of his The Fighter & The Kid Podcast:


“I’m doing the Joker. I was offered a part. That’ll be fun, but i think it’s only a couple days. Play an aging dancer, stripper. I don’t want to go into the details. I can’t go into the details, but just know it’s gonna be good. And I hope my psoriasis is flaring cause that’ll be very funny. I’ll be in a Speed-O, I can’t wait. I have some ideas for it.”

Well, that certainly sounds... interesting!

Philips' take on The Clown Prince of Crime remains shrouded in mystery, but we do learn a little more about it with every new casting announcement. How Callen's character fits into the plot is anyone's guess, however.

Joker stars Joaquin Phoenix in the title role, and he'll be joined by Robert De Niro, Zazie Beetz, and Frances Conroy. The film is expected to commence production this September.

Yeah, seems like he’s good buds with Todd Phillips. He was the diner waiter in Old School too.

That's funny because he was the strip club owner in the Hangover.



He and Phillips are good friends.
