During a recent appearance on Josh Horowitz’s Happy, Sad, Confused podcast, Keoghan and Austin Butler came up with a collaboration idea with respect to their psychopathic arcs of Joker and Feyd, respectively.
It all started with Horowitz asking the actor duo-
“Who’s more of a psychopath, Feyd or Joker?”
To which Austin Butler replied-
“Wow! I don’t know. I mean, Feyd is pretty psychotic. I mean, but I mean they’d probably like hanging out together.”
