(UTV | COLOMBO) – A week ago “Batman: The Animated Series” celebrated its 30th anniversary, and today it celebrated another milestone – the debut of the character Harley Quinn.
Arleen Sorkin voiced the iconic girlfriend of The Joker. She wasn’t from the comics, rather she was a creation of Paul Dini & Bruce Timm’s famed series and quickly became one of the show’s most enduring legacies.
To celebrate, “The Suicide Squad” director James Gunn took to Twitter to share his love of the character and one he adores creating stories for like he did in that 2021 film in which Margot Robbie played the role in live-action for a third time (following “Suicide Squad” and “Birds of Prey”).
Then, in a surprising admission, he directly answered a fan’s question on Twitter if Harley Quinn could potentially return to the DCEU to which he responded with a quick “Yes”.
How exactly? That’s not clear. An animated version of the character stars in her own self-titled series on HBO Max, but Gunn’s comment likely refers to one of several DC projects he has in the works be it the second season of “Peacemaker,” or more likely something yet to be announced.
