Filmmaker Todd Phillips has made it clear that there are no plans to develop a sequel to Joaquin Phoenix-starrer "Joker" as they intended it to be a standalone story.

His comments come days after he teased the possibility of the sequel, saying he is ready to do "anything Joaquin wants to do".

Now, in an interview to IGN, Phillips said, "We have no plans for a sequel. The quote was, 'I will do anything Joaquin wants to do.' And I would. But the movie's not set up to (have) a sequel. We always pitched it as one movie, and that's it."
