Warner Bros.’ plans for the DC Extended Universe are still... how should we put it... in flux, at least one film is moving forward: Birds of Prey, starring Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn, which the studio has selected indie filmmaker Cathy Yan to direct.
Whoever would have thought that Harleen Quinzel, everyone’s favorite well-adjusted psychiatrist from Gotham City, would one day find herself jetting off into space to rendezvous with the Apokoliptian New Gods who’ve caused the Justice League so much trouble over the years? DC Comics is setting Harley off on a very…
A lot of bad edits, behind-the-scenes antics, and other questionable decisions turned DC’s Suicide Squad from a cool antihero saga into a weird, confusing mess. Jared Leto’s Joker took the biggest hit—making the much-hyped “method” character a glorified cameo. Now, director David Ayer is shining another light on the…
There’s been Old Man Logan and Old Man Hawkeye storylines showing Wolverine and Clint Barton kicking butt when they’re past their prime. Now Dr. Harleen Quinzel’s making fun of that trend with an all-new arc that starts in Harley Quinn #42.
Robert Zemeckis is creating a new scifi saga. Get a look at one of Mission: Impossible - Fallout’s wild new stunts. The Charmed reboot is finally looking for its new witches. Plus, new looks at the return of iZombie and Ash vs. Evil Dead, and a whole host of DC villains coming to the Harley Quinn animated show.…
Sean Murphy’s Batman: White Knight is a slow burn of a comic that favors scene setting and world building over huge narrative payoffs from issue to issue. While this week’s issue doesn’t push the series’ plot forward terribly far, it does reveal an interesting tidbit about Gotham’s finances, and a brand-new Joker.
There’s no doubt Margot Robbie’s Harley Quinn was the standout character in Suicide Squad. It’s why, since then, we’ve heard the character will not only be in Suicide Squad 2, but possibly a Gotham City Sirens movie as well as a Harley and Joker movie. But the actress is reportedly working on a fourth Harley movie…
Margot Robbie hints at more Harley Quinn in her future. Get up close and personal with T’Challa’s new suit in a new Black Panther poster. Plus, a teaser for Supergirl’s midseason finale, Legion loses its big bad, and mysterious casting for Game of Thrones’ final season. To me, my spoilers!
Episode three of Batman: The Enemy Within delivers a compellingly sympathetic portrait of a character that we’ve been trained to immediately hate on sight.
When, or if, we’ll see Harley Quinn back on the big screen remains a mystery. On the small screen, though, she’ll be back sooner than expected, and she’ll have a starring role.
Though Batman: White Knight is technically an Elseworlds story about a rehabilitated Joker seeking to convince Gotham that Batman is the true source of its problems, it’s also a love story. The Joker’s had many a great loves in his life: comedy, crime, Batman himself. But he’s never hurt a loved one as much as he’s …
The premise to DC and Archie Comics’ crossover special Harley and Ivy Meet Betty and Veronica reads like a piece of fan fiction, something television or film studio executives dream about but would never dare actually writing. Obviously, this is why the comic’s first two issues, written by Marc Andreyko and Paul Dini…
Even though DC was built on the backs of its iconic trinity, there’s no denying that in more recent years, the comics giant’s brand has been largely bolstered by one Harleen Quinzel, everyone’s favorite clown-themed antihero-cum-medical health professional.
Twenty-five years ago today, Batman: The Animated Series aired its seventh episode, about the Joker forcing an ordinary man to help him assassinate Commissioner Gordon. The story wasn’t memorable, but the episode always will be—because it featured the first appearance of a character that grew into an icon of DC…
Margot Robbie, who played Harley Quinn’s baseball bat-wielding live action debut in Suicide Squad, is pretty sure she knows when she’ll be filming more material as the character. But she’s much less sure about what movie it’ll be for.
Though Warner Brothers and DC were slow to begin building their own shared cinematic universe in a fashion similar to Marvel’s, there was no reason to believe that they wouldn’t be able to pull it off successfully in their own time. Looking at the current state of things, though, that’s becoming increasingly difficult…
It’s been a confusing few days for people trying to keep track of what’s going on in Warner Bros.’ movie universe, called the DC Extended Universe (DCEU). So we’ve compiled a list of all the movies currently planned and their statuses.
Thought yesterday’s Joker-centric movie news was a huge surprise? Today’s newest development makes that look ho-hum: Warner Bros. is reportedly developing a Joker and Harley Quinn film, with Jared Leto and Margot Robbie coming back as Mr. J and Dr. Quinzel.
25 years after her debut on Batman: The Animated Series, Harleen Quinzel’s gone through a lot of changes. Harley’s various iterations have offered up different proportions of wackiness, tragedy and, uh, randiness. The one coming to Batman: The Enemy Within looks like she doesn’t take any guff. From anyone.
There’s a moment in Batman and Harley Quinn when Nightwing asks Harley why she’s working for minimum wage in a superhero-themed bar inspired by Hooters instead of using her background as a psychiatrist to help people, make some legit money, and truly get back on the straight and narrow.
