January 11, 2020 by Amie Cranswick

With its February release date fast approaching, the official running time for Warner Bros. and DC Films’ Birds of Prey (And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn) has been revealed, and it will be the shortest DC Extended Universe movie to date.

Comic Book is reporting that Birds of Prey will run for 108 minutes, making it the first DCEU release to clock in at under two hours (the previous shortest, Justice League, ran for exactly 120 minutes, while Harley Quinn’s first outing in Suicide Squad came in at 123 minutes for its theatrical release).
