First in 2016\u2019s \u201cSuicide Squad,\u201d then in 2020\u2019s \u201cBirds of Prey,\u201d and then finally, Gunn\u2019s \u201cThe Suicide Squad\u201d in 2021.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tBack in 2020, Robbie told <em>Variety<\/em> she \u201cfell in love\u201d with Harley Quinn while shooting the first \u201cSuicide Squad.\u201d She explained that she dove into research for the character, listening to TED talks by women with schizophrenia and reading heaps of comic books.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tShe said at the time, \u201cHarley has this unpredictable nature that means she could react in any way to any situation, which as an actor is just a gift.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tFans may get a glimpse of Harley in Matt Reeves\u2019 highly anticipated \u201cBatman Part II,\u201d given her comic book connection to the Caped Crusader. However, the first \u201cBatman\u201d was released in March of 2022, several months before Gunn and Peter Safran took over DC Studios. So it\u2019s unclear whether or not that franchise will be woven into Gunn\u2019s interconnected universe.
