Following her big screen debut in Suicide Squad, it seems that Harley Quinn could be heading to Gotham, with producer John Stephens teasing the possibility of Dr. Harleen Quinzel popping up in the Batman prequel series during a panel at the Television Critics Association summer press tour.
“We’ll be seeing a character, perhaps not this season, but in times to come, who can be a forerunner for Harley Quinn, which I think will be really exciting as well,” said Stephens (via Slash Film). “That might just be writer talk for ‘we haven’t quite figured it out.’ It’s kind of like you see the first version of it, and you see how it comes from it after the fact.”

Stephens was a little more reluctant to commit to any other members of Task Force X turning up in the show, at least during the upcoming third season:
“A lot of those characters, because they’re in Suicide Squad, we’re not going to be seeing them this season. We will be seeing proto-versions of some of those characters. We see them as sort of a proto-Killer Croc version. So if you see someone who has a scientific anomaly so their skin grows in a certain way, and someone says, ‘Oh, I’m going to take that’ and then grow Killer Croc from that in the future.”
As it happens, we may have already seen a Killer Croc tease with the set photos released by executive producer Danny Cannon last month.
Gotham season three is set to get underway on Fox on September 19th.
