Exclusive: Margot Robbie confirms January production start for Birds of Prey, will have “much smaller budget” than other DC movies

July 6, 2018 by Freda Cooper

Margot Robbie is set to reprise her Suicide Squad role as Harley Quinn as many as four times in the next couple of years.  For now, though, her mind is on the first of those projects, Birds of Prey.  As well as playing Harley, she’s also producing the movie and now she’s confirmed exclusively to Flickering Myth that shooting starts in January 2019.

In an interview to discuss Terminal, her latest film as both star and producer, Robbie pin-pointed January as the start date for Birds of Prey and described the film as “different” from the other DC titles featuring Harley Quinn.  Not only will it be R rated but it’ll be made with a “much smaller budget.”

Birds of Prey is a DC Comics series featuring an all-female line-up of heroes.  Which characters will appear in the film hasn’t been revealed, but Batgirl, Black Canary and Huntress are emerging as the favourites to keep company with Robbie’s Harleen Quinzel.  Director Cathy Yan and screenwriter Christina Hodson are already attached.

No release date for the film has been revealed so far, but we may get an official announcement later this month during Warner Bros.’ DC Films panel at the San Diego Comic-Con International.

Terminal is released in UK cinemas today and will be available on DVD, Blu-ray and Digital from 6th August. Check back at the start of August for our full interview.
