Margot Robbie gets a new Harley Quinn costume in The Suicide Squad, and the first official look at her updated look has finally been released.
Margot Robbie's new Harley Quinn costume for The Suicide Squad has been revealed. Ever since Robbie made her debut as Harley in 2016's Suicide Squad, she has quickly become one of the most popular characters in the DC Extended Universe. Harley was such a scene-stealer in her first appearance that Warner Bros. and DC Films quickly began developing new projects for her to appear in. She just recently starred in Birds of Prey (And The Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn), but more is on the way.
Harley is set to return to the big screen in 2021 with the release of The Suicide Squad, directed by James Gunn. While the end of Birds of Prey has left fans wondering how she'll go from being free to once again being entangled with Task Force X, most are just excited to see what comes next for the character. Margot Robbie has teased that her third appearance in the DCEU will show even more sides of Harley, and that will include getting a brand new look for The Suicide Squad.
As part of The Suicide Squad's DC FanDome panel, the first look at the film's incredible cast of characters was released. While this included confirmation of which characters new cast members are playing, fans already knew Margot Robbie is playing Harley. But, the panel still included some new looks at her in a fresh Task Force X design.
The new tactical look for Harley Quinn is a great change of pace for her character design as she gets back into the action with Task Force X. Her original look in the DCEU was far from combat-ready, while Birds of Prey gave her a more casual look for the latest adventure. Now that Harley is carrying around a bazooka and going on a dangerous mission with Task Force X, it makes sense that she once again received a makeover. She's still just a mortal, but at least now she appears to have some protection in her outfit. And, this won't be Harley's only costume in The Suicide Squad, as there are at least a few other suits she'll wear.
Harley Quinn's new costume is just the beginning of the looks at The Suicide Squad's that DC FanDome provided. The same marketing materials that revealed Harley's suit also provided the reveals for how Idris Elba's Bloodsport, John Cena's Peacemaker, and many others will look during the movie. Plus, with a behind-the-scenes featurette being released to showcase the on-set action, fans have now even had the chance to see Harley in action already. Judging by these early pieces of marketing, Harley once again looks ready to steal the show in The Suicide Squad.
