Margot Robbie Talks Harley Quinn, Joker & Suicide Squad (Video)

Margot Robbie is set to play Harley Quinn and join the Suicide Squad.

MTV recently caught up with the actress to get her thoughts on playing the part.

“Yeah, I guess it’s intimidating because there’s obviously a lot of people I want to please, and a character I have to do justice,” Robbie said, “but it’s a challenge, I’m definitely up for it, and hopefully I don’t disappoint.”

Margo Robbie is also asked if she knows the voice of Harley Quinn (as Tara Strong is strongly associated with voice of the character).

“We haven’t gotten too far into it, we’re still pretty far off…” Robbie continued. “I’m actually shooting a movie before that, so my focus is kind of on that at the moment, we haven’t really gotten into the logistics of everything yet.” 

Margot Robbie also comments on Jared Leto getting cast as the new Joker.

“Great, great co-star,” Robbie said. “Big shoes to fill, but he going to do his best.”

Suicide Squad has an August 6, 2016 release directed by David Ayer.
