Harley Quinn was sporting a new look in a since-deleted set video for director James Gunn's The Suicide Squad.
The video was posted on Twitter by the HarleyMovieNews Twitter account, and featured Margot Robbie hailing a taxi on a city street. What stood out in the short video was the revelation that Robbie's Harley Quinn had red and black hair, which was a staple for her in the comics.
The video was removed from Twitter with the message, "This media has been disabled in response to a report by the copyright owner." This possibly means Warner Bros. contacted Twitter and requested the video be taken down.
The red-and-black-haired Harley Quinn was featured heavily in Jimmy Palmiotti and Amanda Conner's early run on DC's Harley Quinn comic, as the titular character participated in playing roller derby. Coincidentally, a roller derby scene was featured in Birds of Prey (And the Fantabulous Emancipation of Harley Quinn).
Written and directed by James Gunn, The Suicide Squad stars Margot Robbie, Viola Davis, Joel Kinnaman, Jai Courtney, David Dastmalchian, John Cena, Joaquin Cosio, Nathan Fillion, Mayling Ng, Flula Borg, Sean Gunn, Juan Diego Botto, Storm Reid, Pete Davidson, Taika Waititi, Alice Braga, Steve Agee, Tinashe Kajese, Daniela Melchior, Peter Capaldi, Julio Ruiz, Jennifer Holland, Idris Elba and Michael Rooker. The film arrives in theaters Aug. 6, 2021.
