His Mark Over His Mouth Is Thought To Be A Cleft Lip
There is a widespread misconception that Joaquin Phoenix was born with a cleft lip because of the mark that can be seen above his mouth. On the other hand, there are many who feel that the scar on the actor’s face is just a result of an accident that occurred on set.
In the meantime, there are many who maintain that the wound is a birthmark. The most recent hypothesis has a better chance of being accurate than the others, according to Vanity Fair, which states that the actor has confirmed this information personally, despite the fact that they did not provide a direct quotation.
