James Gunn Teases Margot Robbie COULD Return as Harley Quinn in the DCU

by

The second season of “Peacemaker” is fast approaching, and once again fans and media alike are curious about which elements from the old DCEU will be relevant in the new DCU. A common question among these groups is whether Margot Robbie will reprise her role as Harley Quinn in the show. While we may not have an answer just yet, James Gunn, the show’s creator and studio co-CEO, has expressed a strong desire to bring back one of her “The Suicide Squad” co-stars, specifically Idris Elba’s character Bloodsport.

In simpler terms, according to Gunn, we don’t yet know if Margot Robbie will continue as Harley Quinn in the DC Universe or if a new actor will take on the role. He mentioned that this information will be disclosed at a later time.

Where along the timeline will that information surface? It’s possible it could be revealed as soon as next week, or it might take years for us to find out. This uncertainty is due to Gunn not making up his mind completely yet. However, he could have already made a decision and is keeping it under wraps to avoid spoiling things. He may also be waiting for Robbie herself to come to a decision.

In this rephrased version, I’ve aimed to simplify the original sentence while maintaining its core meaning: Gunn hasn’t commented on Margot specifically, but he has hinted at wanting another actor from his 2021 film to return. He stated, “I am always considering where Bloodsport can fit in, and we’ll see how that works out.

James, go ahead! Elba excelled as Bloodsport, and we’re eager for him to reprise the role in the DC Universe. Gunn’s “The Suicide Squad” was one of the top-notch movies in the DCEU. If Christopher Smith and the 11th Street Kids can endure the franchise renewal, there’s no reason why Bloodsport’s former partner, Peacemaker, can’t do the same.

Furthermore, Elba’s reprisal could potentially pave a smoother path for Margot Robbie’s future portrayals of Harley Quinn.
