Birds of Prey Takes Flight
Margot Robbie, who sparked a new wave of Halloween costumes with her explosive portrayal of Harley Quinn inSuicide Squad, has confirmed toFlickering Myththat her “R-rated girl gang” Harley Qunn spin-off movieBirds of Preywill begin filming inJanuary 2019.
The film will be “different” from the other DC titles featuring Harley Quinn, Robbie told Flickering Myth. Not only will it be R-rated, it will be made with a “much smaller budget.”
Robbie is producing and starring inBirds of Prey, which will be helmed byCathy Yanand penned byChristina Hodson. The title refers to an all-female comic book team usually led by DC Comics superheroes Batgirl, Black Canary, and the Huntress — though with Harley Quinn involved, it will now likely include a few villains and antiheroes.
But most importantly: will Harley Quinn have a new look forBirds of Preythat will turn into the hottest Halloween costume and Hot Topic T-shirt of the year? “The costumes haven’t been designed yet, but yes she’ll have new looks,” Robbie confirmed toYahoo Movies. “There will be new Halloween costumes out there, one day.”
