Harley Quinn’s new look inThe Suicide Squadhas been revealed. Margot Robbie just putBirds of Preyout into theaters and she’s already back on set as the villainous character. The standalone movie hasn’t been able to catch on at the box office, despite getting positive reviews from fans and critics. Warner Bros. decided to shorten the project’s gigantic title to make searching for it online a bit easier. It also puts Harley Quinn first, as opposed to the other way around.
The Suicide Squadunofficial set image featuresMargot Robbiedressed in a red dress with black, red, and white hair. Robbie looks a lot more like the comic version of Harley Quinn. In addition to the image, there is a separate video of the character dressed in the same outfit as she hails a cab. This should be a look that comic book fans are familiar with and it is wildly different from herBirds of Preyclothing. James Gunn can also be spotted in the image.
Margot Robbie recently spoke aboutplaying Harley Quinn again in The Suicide Squad. WhileBirds of Preyand the upcoming movie aren’t directly connected to each other, there are some similarities that they share, including an Easter Egg that refers to a certain character from 2016’sSuicide Squadin the Harley Quinn movie. Robbie had this to say when asked about the differences in playing the character this time around.
“You get to see another side of Harley [inThe Suicide Squad]. It’s interesting. You keep getting to meet her at different points in her life, as if a couple of years have gone by. Of course, the films aren’t directly connected, but as an actor, I can map it out in a chronological sense. So, it’s fun to see ‘Okay, what was she like a couple of years ago when she was with Mister J?’ ‘What is she like now, after they’ve broken up? And what is she going to be like in another couple of years’ time?' I love seeing her at these different stages of her life.”
One thing that bothBirds of PreyandThe Suicide Squadwill share is the fact thatJared Leto’s Joker won’t be included. He will more than likely be referred to, but he won’t be in the movie. James Gunn assembled a huge talented cast for the movie, so it will be interesting to see how he’s able to balance everything out when the movie hits theaters. Leto is currently in the middle of reshoots forMorbiusin Los Angeles.
The Suicide Squadwill more than likely wrap principal photography in the coming weeks before going into post-production. As for reshoots, it isn’t clear if James Gunn will need them at this time. Even he does, they will probably only be for minor adjustments.
