What Margot Robbie said after Lady Gaga was cast as Harley Quinn
Gaga will take on the role of Harley Quinn, who Margot Robbie played in films like Suicide Squad (2016), Birds of Prey (2020) and The Suicide Squad (2021). Robbie has expressed his excitement for the new version of the character after learning that Gaga was cast in the role.
“It makes me very happy because I said from the beginning, all I want is for Harley Quinn to be one of those characters, in the same way that Macbeth or Batman always go from great actor to great actor“Robbie told MTV News in 2022.
He continued: “It’s a great honor to have built a solid enough foundation that Harley can now be one of those characters that other actors can try to play. I think he’ll do something amazing with it.”.
