The opening of @birdsofpreywb shows Harley Quinn getting a new place, pushing away from her relationship with Joker, adopting an animal, and blowing up a very large building. The crowd here was so loud and cheering so hard I couldn't understand a lot of the dialogue. Looked cool. pic.twitter.com/VYlPLHUxLr

The opening scene for the upcoming Margot Robbie seems to immediately address where Harley Quinn is at after Suicide Squad. There’s no mention of Jared Leto’s Joker, but its apparent that his presence will be felt throughout Birds of Prey as Harley Quinn tries to come to terms with their toxic relationship. In addition to her stepping away from Joker, Margot Robbie’s Harley Quinn seems to be having the time of her life by blowing up a building! Details are are unfortunately slim regarding the exact contents of the opening Birds of Prey scene, but we’re sure we’ll get more context from fans as the day goes on.

Here is the official synopsis for Margot Robbie’s Birds of Prey:
“You ever hear the one about the cop, the songbird, the psycho and the mafia princess? Birds of Prey (And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn) is a twisted tale told by Harley herself, as only Harley can tell it. When Gotham’s most nefariously narcissistic villain, Roman Sionis, and his zealous right-hand, Zsasz, put a target on a young girl named Cass, the city is turned upside down looking for her. Harley, Huntress, Black Canary and Renee Montoya’s paths collide, and the unlikely foursome have no choice but to team up to take Roman down.”
Directed by Cathy Yan from a script penned by Bumblebee writer Christina Hodson, Birds of Prey stars Mary Elizabeth Winstead as Huntress, Jurnee Smollett-Bell as Black Canary, Ella Jay Basco as Cassandra Cain, Rosie Perez as Renee Montoya, Chris Messina as Victor Zsasz, Ewan McGregor as Black Mask, and Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn. Ali Wong, Robert Catrini, and Michael Masini have also been cast in undisclosed roles.
Birds of Prey will be released in theaters on February 7, 2020.
