Joker (2019) runs 122 minutes — 2 hours and 2 minutes — from the opening frame to the final credit. The 2024 sequel, Joker: Folie à Deux, runs 138 minutes, or 2 hours 18 minutes. Both figures are the theatrical cut lengths certified by the distributor, and neither film has a longer alternate version in circulation.

Runtime at a glance

  • Joker (2019): 122 minutes / 2 hours 2 minutes
  • Joker: Folie à Deux (2024): 138 minutes / 2 hours 18 minutes
  • Director: Todd Phillips (both films)
  • Extended or director's cut: none released for either title

What the 122 minutes includes

The listed runtime covers the feature only. End credits on Joker run roughly eight minutes, so the story itself resolves around the 114-minute mark. If you are planning a screening around a fixed window — a lunch break, a flight, a babysitter's arrival — budget the full 122 minutes plus a few minutes of buffer rather than the story length alone.

Why streaming services show slightly different numbers

You may see 121 or 123 minutes on a streaming platform. That variance comes from how each service rounds, where it places the studio logo cards, and whether it counts the distributor vanity card at the head of the file. A one- or two-minute spread between a disc, a digital purchase, and a rental is normal and does not indicate a different cut of the film.

How to confirm the runtime before you watch

  1. Open the title page on a database site such as IMDb and read the runtime line under the release details.
  2. Cross-check against the studio's own press kit or the back of the physical case, which lists the official feature length.
  3. Compare the platform's listed runtime with the database figure. A gap of more than three minutes usually means the listing includes a preview or an autoplay bumper.
  4. Check the sequel separately. Joker and Joker: Folie à Deux are often grouped in search results, and their runtimes differ by 16 minutes.

How it compares with other comic-book films

At 122 minutes, Joker sits at the shorter end for the genre. It is tighter than most Batman and Marvel entries, which commonly land between 130 and 150 minutes. The sequel adds 16 minutes, largely through its musical sequences and courtroom passages. If you found the first film's pace slow, the second one gives you more of it, not less.

Home release and extended cuts

The Blu-ray, DVD, and digital versions of Joker carry the same 122-minute cut that played in theaters. Warner Bros. has not issued an extended edition, and Todd Phillips has not announced one. Any online listing advertising a longer "full version" is describing a fan edit or a mislabeled file, not an official release.
