The superhero parody film is directed and co-written by Vera Drew, who also stars as the titular character — Joker the Harlequin — with Bri LeRose also co-writing.
The People's Joker Is A Hilarious Take On DC Comics Vera Drew's superhero film is parody at its best Close One of the best corners of Hollywood is the superhero parody genre. Given the apparent superhero movie fatigue in audiences in the 2020s, satire of these movies is warmly welcomed.
Of course, DC isn't the only element being parodied in The People's Joker — Drew also incorporates a satirized version of the NBC sketch comedy variety series Saturday Night Live . A caricature of Lorne Michaels, the famous creator of Saturday Night Live, is also featured in the dark comedy. No one and nothing is safe from the parody's criticism, and although it can't be described as "on the nose," the meaning behind the satire is difficult to miss.
