We’ve been down this road before with this project as SUICIDE SQUAD director David Ayer was originally tapped to direct a GOTHAM CITY SIRENS movie for WB. There’s a report that this is going to be based on BIRDS OF PREY, but with Harley, it sounds more like GCS than BOP, yes? I suspect that this film is a different thing altogether. Also, where does this film when it comes to DC on film and Batman? Clearly, if a film with Harley Quinn, the Birds of Prey and/or the Gotham City Sirens, it’s pretty-much a “Batman Film,” right?
It’s going to be interesting to see how this project plays out and if it ends up coming to fruition in the end. – Bill “Jett” Ramey
