Margot Robbie confirms R-Rated 'Harley Quinn' spin-off

While Suicide Squad was an absolute pile of steaming hot pap, Margot Robbie's portrayal of Harley Quinn was pretty spot-on. In fact, she was the only decent thing about that movie. The producers clearly thought so too, as Harley is about to get her very own movie spin-off.
Even though there's a Suicide Squad sequel on the cards, it's the Harley movie that really has everybody talking. Apparently it's been in the making for a while too, with Margot pitching the idea to execs two years ago. She said:
Quote:I pitched the idea of an R-rated girl gang film including Harley, because I was like, 'Harley needs friends'. Harley loves interacting with people, so don't ever make her do a standalone film.She's got to be with other people, it should be a girl gang. I wasn't seeing enough girl gangs on screen, especially in the action space. So that was always a big part of it.
In the comics, Harley is friends with Catwoman and Poison Ivy, but Margot had other ideas for her character. She likes the idea of teaming up with Huntress, the Oracle and Dinah Redmond, who is the daughter of the Black Canary.
Margot has already secured Cathy Yan to direct the film and is currently looking for other women to fill the roles of lead production as she felt it was important to have more females in these types of films. Well I'm pretty darn excited. As long as Jared Leto doesn't make an appearance with his god-awful Joker we'll be all good!
