10 Things You Need To Know About Gotham City Sirens

There is no denying that Suicide Squad was one heck of a divisive film. While critics largely lambasted it, the movie has garnered quite a lot of fans. Overall, Warner Bros will be pretty happy with it, seeing as it made nigh on $750 million at the worldwide box office. So happy, it turns out, that they have paired Suicide Squad's director up with its breakout star for a new project.

In addition to reprising her fan favourite role as Harley Quinn, Margot Robbie will be working behind the scenes as well as the executive producer of the film.

This is an interesting appointment and could have a positive affect on how Harley’s depicted in the movie. Previously, Robbie has said that if she has anything to do with it, the character’s costume won’t be so skimpy the next time around. The actress also has a lot of insight into the history of Miss Quinzel, which might allow for a fuller exploration of her.

4) It Has A Female Writer

Apart from David Ayer in the director’s chair, Gotham City Sirens has several women behind the scenes, as two female writers have been attached to the script so far.

Originally, Christina Hodson was set to pen the screenplay for the Harley solo movie but she has now apparently left the project. This might because she’s busy with the Transformers Cinematic Universe instead; Hodson is working on the scripts for both Transformers 6 and the Bumblebee solo spinoff.

Instead, Geneva Robertson-Dworet will now be on writing duties. A Hollywood newcomer, she hasn’t had a script make it to screen just yet, but she is attached to an impressive seven movies to come this decade. Most notably, she’s working on the Alicia Vikander-led Tomb Raider reboot and the mooted Sherlock Holmes 3 starring Robert Downey Jr. Not mention the Dungeons and Dragons movie and a reboot of 80s animated series M.A.S.K.
