![]() ![]() I think what is different about this film is that you see Harley in her element. “There was such limited segments onscreen that really showcased Harley’s personality in the first Suicide Squad, so it’s been amazing on this film because I just have more screen time. “I was so excited to play her from the beginning and the more I read the comics and the more I got to play her in real life during Suicide Squad, the more I just fell in love with her,” Robbie shared. Robbie is excited to share this other side to Harley. So, this is a great opportunity to explore the woman behind Harley Quinn and explore that duality and dive deeper into her psyche for sure.” We say that’s part of her superpower, but then she could be so easily manipulated and has really low self-esteem and has all the issues that Joker really brought out in her. ![]() She’s so capable of armchair diagnosing anyone. Harley vs Harley Quinn, and both sides of her is there and she is still very much the smart doctor that she once was. “I think there is such a duality in Harley Quinn,” said Yan. Fans will see the kooky and crazy that they are used to, but will also see the vulnerability of the character. This movie is all about Harley and her breakup with the Joker, but also her finding her own voice with the Birds of Prey. ![]() It’s definitely what was driving us when we were developing this.”ģ. In the movie, we’re inspired by the overall worldview of Harley Quinn, which is so fun and insane and absurd and subversive and kind of untouchable. It was important to us to have the pushed boundaries in this movie. “That allowed us to make a lot of bold choices - narratively and tonally. “The story is seen through her prism - her lens,” said Unkeless. So, are we expecting this film to be completely nuts since it’s told through Harley’s eyes? Not exactly. “She’s the narrator of the film, so, of course, because she’s so kooky and irreverent and nuts, her perspective allows for very distinct and unique kinds of stories that we’re telling.” “This is an origin story about the Birds of Prey told uniquely through Harley Quinn’s point of view,” said Kroll. The film is all in Harley Quinn’s perspective. The film will be entirely Harley’s point of viewĭon’t expect a Deadpool kind of fourth wall breaking. ![]() Don’t try to apply linear logic to how the two go because they don’t.”Ģ. “She and the Joker have broken up and her personal journey and discovery with these women. “This is about her emancipation,” Kroll continued. It’s not a continuation of that story.” Instead, the film touches on Harley’s break up with the Joker. This film has nothing to do with Robbie’s previous portrayal of the psychiatrist-turned-psychiatry-patient known as Harley Quinn from Suicide Squad. Birds of Prey and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn is a standalone movie. Here are a few things we learned from the upcoming production of Birds of Prey:ġ. Robbie also serves as a producer to the film alongside Sue Kroll and Bryan Unkeless. Written by Christina Hodson ( Bumblebee) and directed by Cathy Yan ( Dead Pigs), the movie stars Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn teaming up with several other known DC characters - Huntress (Mary Elizabeth Winstead), Canary (Jurnee Smollett-Bell), Renee Montoya (Rosie Perez), and Cassandra Cain (played by newcomer Ella Jay Basco). The Nerds of Color was invited to the set of Birds of Prey this past April to explore the dangerously fun production of the all-women led “superhero” movie and chat with the cast and creatives of the film. With the holidays around the corner, what better way to celebrate than with news from the anticipated Birds of Prey and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn. ![]()
