Joker To Return To Cinemas After 11 Oscar Nominations

Get those clown shows, grab that makeup, and put a big smile on your face as Joker will return to cinemas this weekend.

Earlier this week it was announced bythe Academy that Joker will be participating in the annual Oscar awards. The film about the clown prince of crime has been nominated for a total of 11 Oscars including Best Picture and Best Actor. 

It would seem that in an effort to boost the publicity of the film, Warner Brothers. has decided to re-release Joker this weekend starting Friday, January 17.

It was confirmed with a statement made by Warner Brothers. Distribution Head Jeff Goldstein. He said, “With the continued interest in Joker as a result of its recognition during this exciting awards seasons, we wanted to give audiences the chance to see the film on the big screen, whether for the first time or again.”

Of course, this would be a smart move as Joker is going against some stiff competition this year with ffilms such as Marriage Story, Little Women, 1917, Once Upon A Time in Hollywood, Jojo Rabbit, Parasite, and Ford vs Ferrari.

Releasing Joker again means more publicity, especially now with the Oscar nominations, and it would also mean the film would have a higher chance of winning.

However, while all we can do is speculate on who’ll win which Academy award, it’s not a sure thing. Joker is one of many high-quality movies that came out in 2019.

Little Woman starring Saorsie Ronan, Florence Pugh, and Emma Watson is still on its theatrical run. While 1917 is getting a lot of attention right now as it was also just recently released. It will all be a close call for the Oscar season, and fans will have to wait and see if Joker will win.

Until then, let us know down in the comments if you play on re-watching Joker in the cinema!
