               With the current nature of the movie industry being saturated with comic book films it’s no surprise that a report has surfaced per, The Hollywood Reporter, that Warner Bros. is developing a female-centric comic book that will heavily feature Margot Robbie’s portrayal of Harley Quinn. We will see the character first in Suicide Squad, which comes to theaters in August that follows a team of villains put together by the government to take down The Joker.

               Though Robbie is expected to be the star in the film, she is also producing, yet, the project won’t revolve completely around Harley Quinn as it will also focus on several other DC Comics’ female heroes and villains. Current rumors attached to the project say that names such as Batgirl and Birds of Prey might be included but the current extent of how involved they are is still unknown.
               Robbie was able to bring in a writer quickly who is working on the script as we speak, though the identity of the writer is not known at this time but we do know that she is female.

               This isn’t the only project that the Australian actress has upcoming, along with the Suicide Squad film in August, she also plays Jane in The Legend of Tarzan coming out in July, as well as recently signed on to play iceskater, Tonya Harding, in a film titled I, Tonya.
