The 2019 film Joker was primarily filmed in locations around the New York City metropolitan area, including several boroughs of New York City like the Bronx and Harlem, as well as cities in New Jersey such as Newark and Jersey City. Key filming locations include:

  • The iconic "Joker stairs" in the Bronx at West 167th Street between Anderson and Shakespeare Avenues, where the famous dance scene was shot.
  • Street scenes in the Bronx and Harlem, New York City.
  • Newark, New Jersey, including Market Street near the disused Newark Paramount Theatre and Kenny's Music Shop on Market Street, which helped create the gritty atmosphere of the film.
  • Jersey City, New Jersey for various street scenes.
  • Manhattanville and Yonkers areas also contributed locations for the film's setting.

Filming took place from around September to December 2018, using these locations to depict the grim, decaying urban environment central to the story's tone and atmosphere.
