From Yahoo! Movies UK: Also, CBR.com reports they could begin shooting as early as January 2019.I think the biggest news out of this is that the Birds of Prey film is going to center around Harley. That "R-rated girl gang" line gives me a feeling they're going for a Birds of Prey/Gotham City Sirens crossover.

R-rated Girl Gang starring Harley Quinn doesn't really sound like Birds of Prey at all.

R-rated birds of prey is a bad idea

They shouldnt be calling this Birds of Prey if it isnt.
It's just a Harley solo with others.
I've no time for it anyway, it's DCEU and therefore will suck regardless. They should Flashpoint that whole project and start over.

My wires are getting crossed. I thought Harley was in Gotham City Sirens film which makes sense. If they're going to change Birds of Prey by having Harley a member, then it might as well just be called Gotham City Sirens.

It is Sirens DC's wires are crossed I would have thought but Cathy Yan was announced to direct Birds of Prey and Sirens was a David Ayers project. I think they've scrapped that and whatever they had developed there, they've moved onto Birds of Prey.

Just make a Harley & Ivy movie. Keep all the other heroes out of it.

The weird thing is, it's not like "Birds of Prey" is that much bigger a brand for them to use that title for what is clearly a "Gotham City Sirens" film. It's not like Marvel using "The Defenders" for what more closely resembled Marvel Knights. The whole thing is weird.

Let's try an R-rated movie with Harley Quinn again, because it worked so well the last time. I sometimes wonder if DC suffers from insanity.

Funny thing is all those characters have been members of the BoP, even Catwoman and Poison Ivy, at some point except for Harley. I know it's because Robbie's directing the movie, but it just sounds like they're combining the rosters of GCS and BOP and making it R-Rated for reasons. And it'll probably end up being a Harley movie featuring the BoP more than anything, especially as it already sounds like Huntress and Black Canary (who, besides Barbara as either Batgirl or Oracle, are THE Birds of Prey people tend to think of) are going to be supporting cast instead of mains.
And they're still planning on making a Sirens movie, too? Blech. DC needs to stop failing at this cinematic universe and look at why it's worked so damn well for Marvel instead of just haphazardly copying the concept but DARK AND EDGY!

How's about the actors that apply for it get the job and role for it because they are best suited for it instead of for the sake of diversity? No reason to make Black Canary a Korean just because you want a Korean actor

No reason to make Black Canary a Korean just because you want a Korean actor Because if you don't aim for diversity in the movie business, you usually don't get it. Whether it's a case of just not auditioning people outside the white cis space, or having preconcieved ideas of 'hey, this person is known, they must be good', or just the producers' and casting agents' own internal prejudices. Hence why some people somehow, against all logic, think that Scarlet bloody Johansson is 'best suited' to play this guy.

Yeah, outside of Wonder Woman, it's been their biggest hit, having a lower budget than Man of Steel while also outperforming it.

I feel like DC is trying to make their own Deadpool like movie series with Harley Quinn without understand what made Deadpool a hit.

R-rated Girl Gang starring Harley Quinn doesn't really sound like Birds of Prey at all. No, but girl gang does sound like a Cinemax after dark movie. I don't want to spoil the ending, but it made me very happy.
