Margot Robbie teases ‘Birds of Prey’ first look
Margot Robbie (“I, Tonya”, “Mary, Queen of Scots”) revealed a glimpse of herself as DC Comics antiheroine Harley Quinn on Instagram.
The upcoming spinoff starring Harley Quinn, scene-stealing star of 2016’s “Suicide Squad”, is directed by Cathy Wang and produced by Robbie.
The Australian actress shared a first look at Harley Quinn’s new costume on her Instagram, with the caption “Miss me?”
A short teaser video titled “See You Soon” was also released today, featuring shots of the cast set to a pop beat.
Along with her signature baseball cap, heart tattoo and red lips, in the new images, Harley Quinn sports a bright pink and red, confetti-fringed outfit, a silver choker and a new haircut.
Harley Quinn’s solo outing in “Birds of Prey” brings together “Suicide Squad” actors Ewan McGregor as Gotham City’s mafia boss Black Mask and Mary Elizabeth Winstead as Huntress. Jurnee Smollett-Bell plays Black Canary and Rosie Perez will take on the role of Renee Montoya.
