Frances Conroy in Talks to Play JOKER’s Mother

Right after news about Robert De Niro being in negotiations to join Joker, The Wrap reports that Frances Conroy (who you might recognize from Sleepless in
Seattle and American Horror Story) is in talks
to play the mom of the title role that Joaquin Phoenix is playing.

The Joker movie would not be the first time Miss Conroy would visit the world
of DC Comics. She has lent her voices to
projects like All-Star Superman and
Superman Unbound.
