  Joaquin Phoenix has revealed that he spoke with
  filmmaker Christopher Nolan about playing Joker which ultimately went to Heath Ledger.
  
  
  The 50-year-old actor - whose latest flick Joker: Folie À Deux could be streamed now - got candid about
  potentially playing the supervillain before he actually portrayed
  him.
  
  Joaquin recently appeared on Rick Rubin's Tetragrammaton podcast as he revealed that he spoke to
  the 54-year-old Oscar-winning filmmaker Nolan about portraying
  Joker over a decade before.
  
  He said: That didn't… wasn't going to happen for a
  number of reasons. I wasn't ready then.
  
  'That's one of those things sometimes where you go: "Why am I not doing this project? What is stopping me from doing this? Well it's not about me, there's something else. There's another person that's going to do something that's like, I can't imagine what it would be if we didn't have Heath Ledger‘s performance in that film."'

  Joker: Folie À Deux heading to streaming after
  box office flop
  
  
  In 2020, Joaquin earned the Best Lead Actor Oscar for Todd Phillips directed Joker which was 11 years after
  Ledger posthumously earned Best Supporting Actor for The Dark Knight in 2009.
  
  
  Joaquin continued: 'I don't know whether Christopher Nolan was coming to me
  saying, "You are definitely the person." 
  
  'I can't remember the context of how we met. But I know that we met, and my feeling was,
  "I shouldn't do this." But maybe he also was like,
  "You're not the guy." I couldn't say.'
  
  Heath died in a New York City apartment on January 22,
  2008, after accidentally overdosing following months of physical and mental exhaustion.
  
  The Dark Knight actor died aged 28 after taking a
  fatal cocktail of drugs, leaving behind his daughter, who was two years old at
  the time.
  
  Meanwhile Joker: Folie À Deux can now be streamed,
  just weeks after its theatrical release. 
  
  The movie, starring Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga, is now available to rent from home starting October 29, in an effort
  to recoup some of Warner Bros. investment into the film, as
  per Variety.
  
  The musical, which bombed at the box office, is 'poised to lose at least $150 million to $200 million in its theatrical run' according to the publication.

  Terrifier 3 dethrones Joker: Folie À Deux as box office champ
  
  
  The movie studio spent about $200 million to produce the
  film and about $100 million on marketing and distribution, according to the report.
  
  
  It would need to gross about $450 million at the box office to break even —
  when factoring in the cut taken by theaters — though Warner Bros.
  sources claim the number is $375 million.
  
  A Warner Bros. spokesperson responded to the report, saying 'Any estimates suggested by anonymous "insiders" or "rival executives" are grossly wrong and continues
  a trend where rumor is reported as fact.'
  
  'The film continues to play in theatrical release, included with this week's opening
  in China, and will continue to earn revenue throughout its home viewing and ancillary run.'
  
  So far, the musical about Batman's nemesis has
  grossed $51.5 million domestically and $165 million globally after two weeks of release.
  
  
  In comparison, the first Joker grossed $96.2 million domestically and $248.4 million globally after three days of
  release.
  
  The hotly-anticipated sequel to the 2019 billion dollar Oscar-winning film was considered a surefire hit for Warner Bros Pictures,
  yet ended up being slammed by critics and failed to ignite at the box office. 
  
  Joker: Folie À Deux has garnered the lowest CinemaScore in comic book
  movie history as the film bombed at the box office on opening night. 
  
  The psychological musical thriller — which has been criticized as 'bleak' and 'disappointing' — officially released in theaters on Friday, October 4.

  Phoenix reprised his role as the Joker in the sequel, which had earned him an Oscar
  for his portrayal in the 2019 film, while Gaga took on the role of Harleen Lee Quinzel (Harley Quinn).
  
  
  
  However, Joker: Folie À Deux has been given a D
  rating on CinemaScore — the lowest score for a comic book movie.
  
  
  
  Madame Web — which notably also flopped in theaters earlier
  this year and also received terrible reviews — holds a
  higher score with a C+.
  
  On Rotten Tomatoes, the movie currently holds an audience score of 31% and a critic score of 32%.
  
  
  The sequel has been roundly criticized for being a musical and
  'ignoring' the DC fanbase - with an agent familiar with director Todd Phillips' process telling
  Variety he 'wanted nothing to do with DC' during the making of the film, with DC bosses
  James Gunn and Peter Safran notably absent from the film's LA premiere afterparty last month. 
  
  A source said: 'If the first movie was about some down-on-his-luck, mentally ill guy in a downtrodden city, it makes maybe $150 [million] worldwide.
  
  Not a billion. People showed up because that guy was Joker.'
  
  In an apparent snub by Phillips, the opening sequence of the film does not include
  a DC Studios logo.
  
  A Warner spokesman added that a DC logo appears at the end of the Joker sequel, while
  Phillips declined to comment to the publication.
  
  Several frictions are said to have developed between Phillips, DC and Warner- with claims that Michael DeLuca, Chairperson of Warner
  Bros. Entertainment, and CEO Pamela Abdy seemed 'unwilling' to say no to Phillips due to his huge
  past successes.
  
  It is claimed Phillips would 'only' speak with DeLuca and Abdy rather than Gunn and Safran -
  who took control of DC two months before production began on Joker 2 in December
  2022.
  
  Gunn and Safran did attend the first director's cut screening for the
  studio but Phillips fueled rift speculation when he told a reporter:
  'With all due respect to them, this is kind of a
  Warner Bros. movie.'
  
  Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav also met with Phillips shortly after WarnerMedia and Discovery merged in April 2022 and was 'open to filming in Los
  Angeles if the director would make the sequel at a lower price point.'
  
  The studio wanted to film in London which would have cost around 20 per
  cent less.
  
  
  
  
  A source directly involved with the film recently shared: 'The one thing about genre stuff:
  If you don't listen and pay attention to what the fan expectations are,
  you're going to fail'; director Todd Phillips seen with Gaga and Phoenix at the LA premiere
  September 30
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  However, Phillips insisted on filming in LA with the budget remaining
  static.
  
  A Warner spokesman told the publication the studio 'supported the decision to film in Los Angeles'.
  
  
  
  A source directly involved with the film said:
  'No one could get through to Todd. And the one thing about genre stuff: If you don't listen and pay attention to
  what the fan expectations are, you're going to
  fail.
  
  Insiders also claim studio bosses did not want to premiere the
  film at the Venice Film Festival, but Phillips pushed back - with a Warner spokesman saying
  the studio 'fully supported the decision to bring the film
  to Venice. 
  
  Along with Gaga and Phoenix, other stars that had appeared in the sequel include Brendan Gleeson, Catherine Keener, Zazie Beatz and
  Steve Coogan.

  PHUKET, Thailand, April 19 (Reuters) - Beneath the surface of the turquoise waters off a beach on Thailand's holiday island of
  Phuket, divers laboriously collect abandoned fishing gear, much of it made from plastic, that is tangled on coral and trapping sea life.
  
  
  This discarded or lost fishing equipment is known locally as "ghost gear" and is a growing problem in waters off Thailand and beyond, ensnaring marine
  life and adding to microplastics pollution as nets and
  ropes break down over time.
  
  According to Thailand's Department of Marine and Coastal Resources, estimates of the percentage of
  endangered marine life affected by plastic pollution in the upper Andaman Sea
  off Thailand have grown from 20% in 2021 to at least 30% as of 2023.
  
  
  Scuba diving groups and marine organisations in Thailand have been working to remove the abandoned fishing gear from reefs through
  cleanup missions, but have a problem tracking its scale.
  
  
  Experts say the lack of a coordinated strategy is hindering the
  pursuit of more comprehensive and effective solutions
  to track, manage or outlaw dumping of fishing equipment.
  
  
  "We constantly collect discarded fishing gear. We have a strong scuba diving community. We have many government sectors working on this cleanup drive," said Salisa
  Traipipitsiriwat, senior campaigner and Southeast Asian plastic manager from the Environmental Justice
  Foundation (EJF), which is partnering with other organisations to compile data.
  
  
  The aim is to help marine scientists assess the impact of abandoned fishing
  gear in Thai waters.
  
  "Even though there is collection of waste, there is no uniform data collection," Salisa added.
  
  
  Off the Phuket shore, about 20 volunteer divers equipped with submersible gear, scissors, nets, and notebooks dive down to collect discarded fishing nets, recording data during cleanup missions.
  They are also encouraging other recreational divers to join their initiative.
  
  
  The group also engages about 500 fishermen to collect abandoned
  nets.
  
  The trash is sorted and weighed and, where possible, sent
  for recycling. About 130 tons of used fishing equipment has been collected by EJF from local fishing communities along Thai coastal areas and recycled
  into new products.
  
  In one case, a dead turtle is found on the shore and taken for a necropsy performed by marine
  veterinarians. Inside its stomach are pieces of
  rope and plastic.
  
  "As of today, plastic waste is one of the main causes of endangered marine animals washing ashore," said Patcharaporn Kaewmong, head of the marine rescue centre in Phuket.
  
  
  "Waste management is a very big problem." (Reporting by Napat Wesshasartar; Editing

  The 'cataclysmic' Minoan eruption of Thera - one of the largest in the history
  of the planet - took place a century earlier than first thought, scientists
  say.
  
  The ancient eruption devastated the island of Terea,
  modern-day Santorini, and decimated fledgling societies across
  the Mediterranean as the volcanic activity also triggered an earthquake and a tsunami in the region.
  
  Folklore claims the eruption kickstarted a wave so big it drowned an entire city,
  creating the mythical realm of Atlantis.
  
  Researchers found an ancient olive branch buried under rocks on the island of Santorini and used radiocarbon analysis to reveal a more accurate date
  for the destructive natural disaster.
  
  It is now believed the eruption took place between 1,627 and 1,600 BCE, more than a century earlier than the 1,500 BCE date previously suggested
  by archaeologists.

  Scientists have found that the 'cataclysmic'
  Minoan eruption of Thera happened a century before previous estimates. It is now
  believed the eruption took place between 1,627 and 1,600 BCE, more than a century earlier than the 1,500 BCE date suggested by archaeologists (stock)
  
  Charred olive wood is found throughout the archaeological record and provides a consistent way to date ancient events, especially
  in the Mediterranean region.
  
  The latest research took samples from an ancient piece of wood unearthed in fragments of volcanic
  rock and compared it to two modern-era examples - one from a living tree and another from a specimen that had died a few years earlier.
  
  
  Dr Elizabetta Boaretto of the Weizmann Institute of Science in Israel took 20 samples from the living tree
  and 11 from the dead branches, which had been cut in 2013.
  
  
  These samples were used to asses how olive trees grow,
  and apply the latest findings to the ancient sample unearthed in Santorini.

  Until now, it was believed the outermost ring of wood
  in the 3,500 year-old olive tree sample was formed just before the branch was buried
  alive by the eruption.
  
  According to the study: 'The outermost rings of an olive
  branch buried during the Santorini volcanic eruption is regarded
  as crucial evidence for the date of this cataclysmic event.'
  
  However, Dr Boaretto and her colleagues discovered that olive trees are different to most trees and
  do not produce visible growth rings each year.
  
  
  Using this found knowledge, scientists tested other samples from the
  ancient olive tree branch to discovered parts of the branch almost a century older than previous estimates for the volcanic eruption on Thera.  
  
  
  
  
  This cross section of one of the olive tree trunks is an example
  of the samples used by the researchers. They say the growth pattern of the olive tree was unusual and therefore may mean the original estimation of the Santorini eruption was incorrect 
  
  
  
  
  
  The eruption is one of the largest in Earth's history and devastated the island
  of Terea - modern-day Santorini (pictured) - and decimated fledgling societies
  on the Mediterranean islands as it triggered an earthquake and a tsunami
