DC’s Birds of Prey gets a new official synopsis

November 15, 2019 by Amie Cranswick

With less than three months to go until the film’s release, Warner Bros. and DC Films have unveiled a new official synopsis for the Margot Robbie-led girl gang movie Birds of Prey (And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn); check it out here…

You ever hear the one about the cop, the songbird, the psycho and the mafia princess? Birds of Prey (And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn) is a twisted tale told by Harley herself, as only Harley can tell it. When Gotham’s most nefariously narcissistic villain, Roman Sionis, and his zealous right-hand, Zsasz, put a target on a young girl named Cass, the city is turned upside down looking for her. Harley, Huntress, Black Canary and Renee Montoya’s paths collide, and the unlikely foursome have no choice but to team up to take Roman down.
