Margot Robbie (The Wolf of Wall Street) has been on the rumored list of actors for David Ayer's Suicide Squad since the movie was officially announced. Collider is now reporting that the beautiful actress has been cast in the role of Harley Quinn in the film, which is freakin' awesome! I can totally see her in the role, and rocking that iconic Harley Quinn voice. There's no official confirmation, but the site who broke the news is a trusted source on this kind of info, so it has that going for it. I hope it's true, because I would absolutely love to see Robbie in the role.
Just a few days ago it was reported that Jared Leto might be cast as The Joker in the movie, which a lot of fans seemed happy about. Seeing Leto and Robbie working alongside each other as Joker and Harley could be insanely cool. It will be interesting to see how these characters are portrayed in the movie.
Quinn was introduced in Batman: The Animated Series and quickly became a fan favorite. Just this weekend I took my kids to Designer Con, and one of them saw a piece of Harley Quinn and blurted out to the artist, "That's my dads favorite girl villain!" She knows me too well.
Suicide Squad is about a group of supervillains who are given a chance to redeem themselves through dangerous missions that they are sent on by the government. The film is slated for release on August 5th, 2016.
What do you think about the possibility of Robbie taking on the role of Quinn?
