Suicide Squad may not have been one of DC Comics' more critically well-received movies (though it certainly performed admirably commercially, making over $746 million worldwide), but one of its praised elements was Margot Robbie's portrayal of Harley Quinn, a character who was introduced in Batman: The Animated Series and has built a strong fanbase in the years since. Knowing a good thing when it sees it, Warner Bros has more plans for Robbie's Harley, and the character is next expected to appear in Birds of Prey. Since the announcement of Birds of Prey, there's been plenty of speculation as to who would make up the movie's main lineup, and according to a new report, said lineup will consist of Batgirl, Black Canary, Huntress and Renee Montoya.
Those first three heroines typically make up the core of the Birds of Prey team in the DC Comics universe, but according to The Wrap, instead of Barbara Gordon serving as Batgirl, it will be Cassandra Cain wearing the cape and cowl instead. Dinah "Laurel" Lance and Helena Bertinelli will still be suited up as Black Canary and Huntress, respectively, and like her comic book counterpart, Renee Montoya will presumably be a detective at the Gotham City Police Department. The report also mentions that Birds of Prey's villain will be a Batman villain who hasn't appear on the big screen yet.
