Margot Robbie will bring Harley Quinn for the first time in a live-action movie. Harley Quinn is one of the most popular female villains in the Batman mythology, yet her appearances so far confined to video games, TV shows and cartoons only.
Suicide Squad, set to be released August 5th, 2016, occasions Harley Quinn an unprecedented showcase. Margot Robbie was assigned a huge task. Cast as the Joker's one time twisted sweetheart and the partner in crime, Neighbors star has to face the challenge of the character proper, as well as the pressure of a flashy lineup.
Margot Robbie is "definitely up for it"
See the interview with MTV. Margo Robbie looks great and has a lot of energy, keeping an upbeat tone. Flanked by colleagues Chris Pine and Chiwetel Ejiofor (co-stars in Z for Zachariah), they finish off on a witty note you'll definitely savor. Enjoy!
"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, but it's a challenge, I'm definitely up for it, and hopefully I don't disappoint", said Margo Robbie when asked about her mission to portray the assigned character and the company of the likes of Jared Leto and Will Smith.
As to the actual looks of Harley Quinn, Margo Robbie claims they "haven't gotten too far into it, we're still pretty far off. 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".
Playing Harley Quinn in Ayer's upcoming Suicide Squad is, by far, the most momentous opportunity for Margo Robbie. We bet she'll pull of a rad Dr. Harleen Quinzel. She's got the looks, she's motivated, she's inspired. Don't you agree? Share your thoughts with us: do you think Margo Robbie is up for it, as she so confidently claims?
