Margot Robbie will most likely not be the
DC Universe"s Harley Quinn. Though she played the character for three films, including one directed by DC Studios" James Gunn, the actress appears to be moving on to other roles. Moreover, the DCU is rebooting the Batman franchise, so new actors will be cast in both the heroic and villainous roles. Robbie will perhaps be the most difficult actor to replace. She is the first to play Harley in a live-action film, and though Robbie starred in some of DC"s more divisive movies, her performance was lauded.
Even so, DC appears to be moving on with Harley.
Lady Gaga will portray a new version of the character in Joker: Folie A Deux, who will be more grounded to match the tone of Joker. Aside from Joker, The Penguin has teased their potential take on Harley. Regardless, Robbie is iconic in the role, and she will be missed by fans.
The DCU Is Yet To Confirm Margot Robbie's Return As Harley Quinn Margot Robbie Supports Recasting Harley Quinn Close After The Suicide Squad in 2021, Robbie"s future as Harley Quinn was somewhat up in the air. The DCEU was flailing, with Wonder Woman 1984, Black Adam, and Shazam! Fury of the Gods meeting negative reception. Then, Gunn and Peter Safran took over as co-heads of DC Studios, and the DCEU slate was canceled altogether. However, Gunn stated that he"d "love to work with [Robbie] again as Harley or as someone else." As for Robbie herself, she"s not stressed about Harley being recast, adding:
"I always wanted Harley to be a character that would get passed on to other actresses to play, the way there are so many iconic male characters. That was always the dream for her. Harley’s so fun and can go in so many different directions. You put her in someone else’s hands, and it’s like, ‘What are they going to do with her?’ The options are endless."
Between Robbie"s comments and the cancelation of the DCEU, the actress reprising Harley seems like a long shot. Per Gunn, "there are no plans at this time for anyone else to play Harley" in the main DCU, however. Even so, a few Elseworlds projects are making their own spins on Harley.
Lady Gaga's Lee Is Joker 2's Reimagining Of Harley Quinn Joker 2 Creates A Totally Unique Harley Quinn Close
Lady Gaga will play a completely different version of Harley Quinn for Joker: Folie à Deux. Instead of being Joker"s therapist led astray, this iteration of the character, renamed Lee Quinzel, is a patient at Arkham Asylum. This recontextualizes their relationship, which is no longer rooted in Joker manipulating Harley. The two are equals craving connection and power yet unable to help themselves. According to director Todd Phillips, Gaga"s Lee doesn"t have many of the character"s trademarks. He further explained to Variety that he "wanted her to fit into this world of Gotham that we created from the first movie."
