Joaquin Phoenix‘s next role is going to be an explicit one.
The 48-year-old Joker actor worked with Carol director Todd Haynes to create the script for a gay love story that should go into production in 2024.
Todd opened up about the project during a recent interview and informed fans that it would be rated NC-17 when it arrives in theaters.

Speaking to IndieWire during the 2023 Cannes Film Festival, Todd explained that Joaquin was the one pushing for the film to “go further.”
“The next film is a feature that’s an original script that I developed with Joaquin Phoenix based on some thoughts and ideas he brought to me,” he said. “We basically wrote with him as a story writer. Me and Jon Raymond and Joaquin share the story credit. And we hope to be shooting it beginning early next year. It’s a gay love story set in 1930s L.A.”
Joaquin recently wrapped shooting another movie – Joker: Foile a Deux, which co-stars Lady Gaga.
