Stunning new Harley Quinn cosplay images bear an uncanny resemblance to the DC Universe’s original actor in the iconic role, Margot Robbie.
Beautiful new Harley Quinn cosplay bears a striking resemblance to Margot Robbie. Created by Paul Dini and Bruce Timm in 1992 for the critically acclaimed Batman: the animated series, the villain proved immensely popular and was then introduced to the DC’s comic book pantheon of characters shortly after. The Joker’s love interest and partner-in-crime has since adapted to various media outlets to include her own popular animation show on HBO Max, Harley Quinn.
Although David Ayer’s suicide squad (2016) was reviled by critics and the public alike, Robbie’s portrayal as Quinn received nothing but praise. The actor’s playful yet dangerously eccentric take on Joker’s partner captured the essence of the character Dini and Timm created over a decade earlier. The two also praised her for portraying nailing the character. Robbie reprized the role Birds of Prey (and the fantastic emancipation of one Harley Quinn) and the action comedy of James Gunn, The Suicide Squad (2020).
In response to DC’s Harley Quinn account, asking fans to share their villainous costumes, @martycipher replied with images of her awesome and faithful Harley Quinn cosplay. Wearing three different outfits, Marty bears an uncanny resemblance to Robbie as the evil DC character.
Why Margot Robbie’s Harley Quinn Is So Popular
Marty clearly has great attention to detail with her costumes, but she also captured the essence of Robbie’s portrayal of Quinn beautifully. Her broad smile and piercing eyes, combined with a fake The Suicide Squad (2020) outfit show why Robbie’s Quinn is a popular cosplay choice. Based on the original character portrayal in 1992, the Australian actor clearly enjoyed the role. However, Robbie has transformed the villain into her own playfully terrifying image through acrobatics, vicious one-liners and a terrifyingly wide grin.
Although director James Gunn revealed that Quinn will one day return to the DCU, it’s unclear whether Robbie will reprise the role in a future film or television appearance. The actor previously stated that she wanted to take a break from the role after the shooting Birds of prey and The Suicide Squad (2020) one after the other. However, she later admitted that she would be open to the white makeup and red lipstick one more time. Harley Quinn opportunity arose. Although the character will return in Joker: Folie à Deux, she will be played by pop star Lady Gaga as the film takes place outside of the DCU. With relatively few films in the DCU’s upcoming theatrical slate, it’s unclear how and when Robbie will return to one of her biggest roles yet.
