A teaser for Birds of Prey (And The Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn) has arrived with a first glimpse at the star-studded cast.

The teaser starts out with a quick shot of Harley Quinn's boots and signature mallet, before cutting to Huntress' crossbow and another character downing a bottle of alcohol. Another shot shows a close-up of Cassandra Cain's plaster cast, which is covered in writing, drawings of playing cards and phrases like "fuck you," "Gotham" and "bitch." The 19-second video then cycles through the entire main cast, revealing glimpses of stars like Jurnee Smollett-Bell (Black Canary), Mary Elizabeth Winstead (Huntress) and Ewan McGregor (Black Mask) in costume.

As Harley Quinn dances with a margarita and a shrug made of caution tape and silver tinsel, the teaser promises to "see you soon," which could suggest another, fuller teaser will drop in the near future. It concludes with a red lipstick imprint against an all-black frame.

Inspired by the DC comics team of female heroes, Birds of Prey will feature Harley alongside Black Canary, the Huntress, Renee Montoya and Cassandra Cain.

Directed by Cathy Yan from a script by Christina Hodson, Birds of Prey (And The Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn) stars Margot Robbie, Jurnee Smollett-Bell, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Rosie Perez, Ewan McGregor, Steven Williams, Derek Wilson, Dana Lee, Francois Chau, Chris Messina and Matthew Willig. It is scheduled to be released on Feb. 7, 2020.
