In a no-brainer (and possible spoiler), Margot Robbie has signed a multi-picture deal to play Harley Quinn.
Robbie will first play Harley Quinn for David Ayer in Suicide Squad, which starts filming this Spring in Toronto.
“You don’t need to have commitment issues to be frightened by the fact that you might have just signed 10 years of your life away,” Robbie told AZCentral. “But with her, it’s a character I don’t think would ever get boring. Ever. So if they did ‘Suicide Squad One,’ ‘Two’ and ‘Three,’ I would be over the moon about it.”
Obviously with Margot Robbie signing a multi-picture deal and hoping for sequels, the character of Harley Quinn survives Suicide Squad.
Suicide Squad has an August 5, 2016 release date also starring Will Smith as Deadshot, Jared Leto as the Joker, Cara Delevingne as Enchantress, Jai Courtney as Boomerang and Viola Davis is playing Amanda Waller.
Margot Robbie stars in Focus with Will Smith out this Friday.
