People Want To Have Sex With The Joker After Watching New Film

Namely, that they want to bonk the maniacal clown.

But if you don't believe us, just have a look at some of the thirrrrrrrsty tweets people have been sharing just moments after watching the film.

See. Told you.

But this isn't the only showing of, let's call it appreciation, for Phoenix's acting.

A statement from the erotic giant, said: "Our statisticians found that in just four days, searches containing 'Joker' reached 741K with a peak of 291K on October 6th. Bang!"

And it's not just Pornhub that has witnessed an engorgement of interest in the Crown Prince of Crime. The guys over at xHamster say they have seem more than a 1,300 percent increase.

Alex Hawkins, VP of xHamster said: "People are now fantasising about the f***ing Joker. Human sexualisation is weird sometimes, but the Joker searches have risen over 1,300 percent, which is astounding."

And who knows, there may be more Joker content in the pipeline as Phoenix has already said he would be up for a sequel.

Phoenix said: "I wouldn't have thought of this as my dream role. But now, honestly, I can't stop thinking about it.

"I talked to [director] Todd [Phillips] a lot about what else we might be able to do, in general, just working together, but also specifically, if there's something else we can do with Joker that might be interesting.

"So, it ended up being a dream role. It's nothing that I really wanted to do prior to working on this movie."

Joker is in cinemas now.
