Robert De Niro Addresses Jokers Connection To The King Of Comedy

After yesterdays big unveiling of the trailer for Todd Phillips Joker, there were many connections and references that sprang to mind as fans dissected every inch of the footage. As expected, one of the big ticket references baked in was our first look at Robert DeNiros talk show host, Murray Franklin; a character that has been pegged as a huge connective tissue between this DC experiment and Martin Scorseses dark comedy gem The King of Comedy. And in a recent discussion, DeNiro called it like he saw it, stating the following:

Theres a connection, obviously, with the whole thing. But its not as a direct connection as the character Im playing being Rupert many years later as a host.

So Murray Franklin is, indeed, a character set to invoke the spirit of Robert DeNiros Rupert Pupkin-- if he was to have gotten that fame hed always wanted by taking over Jerry Langfords show. Thats one hell of a deep cut for film fans to cheer for, as well as something for newcomers to latch onto, in hopes that Joker could turn the younger comic film audience onto the works of its executive producer, Martin Scorsese.

The connection only seems to make The King of Comedy required viewing for Joker, as Joaquin Phoenixs Arthur Fleck seems very much like a Pupkin-esque figure, waiting for one bad day to set him off on his path to become the clown prince of crime. Hes beat up and ridiculed by random folks in the neighborhood, leads a life of semi-quiet desperation, and ultimately want to become a standup comedian thatll be featured on a late night TV show. So casting DeNiro as that late night host that Arthur is fixated on is definitely a connection, and bordering on turning Joker into an official sequel.

Though, as Robert DeNiro has pointed out in his interview with IndieWire, the idea of Joker officially continuing where The King of Comedy left off didnt escape him. In that very same chat, DeNiro provided the following thoughts:

If they wouldve proposed that to me, I wouldve said, Thats interesting, maybe well try to do that. But by making this type of film, it is connected in a way, as youll see.

Deciding to pay homage to the 1983 film, rather than continuing its story in a direct capacity, was probably a better card for Joker to play out of its deck of winners. But thinking about how Rupert Pupkin could have not only returned, but also become the very thing he railed against, is something so subversive we would have totally been down to see it. But an homage can be just as effective as a direct lift. If it worked for Robert Redford in Captain America: The Winter Soldier, as he sent up various anti-authority characters he once played in the role of S.H.I.E.L.D. power player/traitor Alexander Pierce, then surely Robert DeNiro and Joker can pull it off as well.

Joker puts a smile on the face of the world on October 4th, though if youre looking for a chuckle way before then, take a look at the 2019 release schedule and find some laughs.

The modern era of James Bond under Daniel Craig gave more than a casual suggestion that the two were about to sleep together. That shaving scene in Skyfall, with Moneypenny and James skirting the edge of their office relationship oh so carefully, certainly did a lot to hint that history would be changed yet again in the 007 franchise.
