Barbie star Margot Robbie has shared her thoughts on the future of her role as Harley Quinn in the newly rebooted James Gunn-run DC Universe. While details about Robbie’s return as Harley Quinn in the revamped DCU remain unclear, she has hinted that she might be passing on the torch to other actresses.
In a recent interview with Variety, Robbie expressed her openness to the idea of Harley Quinn being portrayed by different actresses, much like many iconic male characters. She stated, “I always wanted Harley to be a character that would get passed on to other actresses to play, the way there are so many iconic male characters. That was always the dream for her.”
Robbie emphasized the versatility of Harley Quinn as a character, suggesting that different portrayals could lead to exciting new directions. Her comments imply that she is supportive of the idea of another actress taking on the role.
With Margot Robbie’s future as Harley Quinn uncertain, fans are eager to see how James Gunn and Peter Safran will handle the character’s trajectory in the rebooted DC Universe, especially considering the majority of the cast will be recast. Lady Gaga is set to portray Harley Quinn in the upcoming Joker: Folie à Deux, set in a different universe as part of the DC Elseworlds category.
