Margot Robbie first captivated audiences as Harley Quinn in 2016's "Suicide Squad," quickly gaining a massive fanbase with her unique charm. She reprised the role in "Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn)" and again in James Gunn's "The Suicide Squad."
However, with DC Studios rebooting its universe and launching the all-new DCU, Robbie's potential return has become a major question mark.
While DC Studios has not yet cast the Joker or Batman for this project, and theoretically, Harley Quinn could still be played by Robbie, foreign media outlets believe the chances are slim.
Despite Robbie's critically acclaimed performance in the role, she also carries the baggage of the previous DCEU. However, a similar situation applies to "Peacemaker" star John Cena, who will continue to portray his character in the show's second season.
The report also noted that DC Studios co-CEOs James Gunn and Peter Safran plan to be cautious with the use of Batman-related characters. This is because Matt Reeves is currently developing "The Batman 2" and potentially "The Batman 3," and they want to avoid "stepping on toes" by duplicating villain characters across different universes.
She expressed that Harley Quinn is highly adaptable, allowing for fresh interpretations when played by different individuals. Robbie also reiterated her desire to explore a live-action romantic relationship between Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy, revealing she had been pushing for that storyline for years, believing it would be fantastic.
