TheDiscussing Filmwebsite has just release a new synopsis forBirds of Prey , one that teases some major plot development and role arcs . The brief outline take :
" After splitting up with The Joker , Harley Quinn and three other female superheroes – Black Canary , Huntress and Renee Montoya – follow together to save the life of a little girl ( Cassandra Cain ) from an malevolent criminal offence lord . "
The website claim to have a number of source inside DC Films , using them to verify other rumour and report that have circulated over the last few weeks . At this leg , however , it ’s hard to properly measure the rumors , and they should be treat as unsubstantiated .
Assuming this precis is exact , though , there are two prompt points . The first is that it seems Harley Quinn has broken up with the Joker , mean Jared Leto is improbable to look inBirds of Prey . That ’s an important detail , perhaps suggesting the studio has recognized what laughable book fans have always known : That Harley Quinn ’s best growing as a fibre make out when she is separated from the Joker , when she actualise the abusive nature of their human relationship and decide to move beyond it . The R - valuation may well mean viewers get an inner look at Harley ’s attempt to recover from the Joker ’s abuse .
The 2d key takeaway is that , as recently rumored , Batgirl is n’t mentioned in the synopsisat all . According toDiscussing Film , the character has been completely cut . That would make thoroughgoing sense since there have long been reports that Warner Bros. is interested in evolve aBatgirlmovie inspired by the popular " Batgirl of Burnside " arc . But that variant would seat very uncomfortably indeed with an roentgen - rated franchise likeBirds of Prey . Instead , it seems the squad members are Harley Quinn , Black Canary , Huntress , and detective Renee Montoya .
Only meter will distinguish whether or not this rumored synopsis is truly accurate . If it is , then a number of primal female DC characters - admit even Cassandra Cain - are designate to make their DCEU launching before long .
