Warner Bros. says 'Joker' team won't give interviews at red carpet premiere

In “Joker,” Joaquin Phoenix stars as the iconic DC Comics character in an origin story that explores how a mentally ill clown is driven to violence after being oft-mocked by the residents of Gotham. The plot has raised questions about whether viewers — mistakenly viewing the character as a hero — might be inspired to commit violence in his name.

It’s really been eye-opening for me,” Phillips added in an. “Isn’t it good to have these discussions about these movies, about violence? Why is that a bad thing if the movie does lead to a discourse about it?”
