BIRDS OF PREY Team Lineup Details Have Been Confirmed - With One Significant Character Change!

It looks like the earlier report on the DC heroines that will make up the core team in the Birds of Prey movie was pretty accurate, although one significant character will be different. More past the jump.

The Wrap has now published their report on Warner Bros. and director Cathy Yan's upcoming Birds of Prey movie, and it looks like Grace Randolph was spot on about the DC characters that'll make up the core team.

Well, almost!

The Birds of Prey will indeed consist of Black Canary, Huntress, Cassandra Cain and Harley Quinn, but instead of Lady Shiva, Renee Montoya will take the final spot.

The Wrap also mentions that the film's antagonist will be a "Batman comics villain who has never before appeared on the big screen," which could well turn out to be David Cain as previously reported.

There's also no mention of the plot, although these details do seem to suggest that Cassandra will be a part of the team and not someone the others are tasked with rescuing.

The movie is said to be "centered around a revolving group of female heroes and villains," so the team members may be subject to change - but if this does turn out to be the final lineup, what would you think? Drop us a comment in the usual place.

@L0RDbuckethead - Since Casandra and Shiva are in it Barabara should be Oracle and Cassandra should become Batgirl in a sequel or solo movie

@dracula - That's probably what they'll do. Especially if the rumors of Cassandra's father being involved are true.

@L0RDbuckethead - They should also cast someone young for Cassandra, someone around 10 to 13 years old, kind of like Dafne Keen, except of course asian. Use Shiva as big bad, and have Cassandra turn against her, and be taken in by the Birds at the end of the film, and develop her in the sequels before giving her a solo batgirl film where she finally takes on the mantle. Wound be nice to have an actual teenage sidekick, and not a 20 something playing a teenager

I like what I hear. Here's to hoping DC doesn't screw this up.

@Super12 - yeah the only reason Harley should be in a Birds Of Prey movie is if, they are doing a Birds of Prey vs Gotham City Sirens plot

Fans of Cassandra Cain will be happy. But Harley is unnecessary here.

I wish the Batman villain they haven't used was Hush. So underappreciated. I'll have to look up who is this David Cain fellow.

@NinnesMBC - Yeah Harley should not be here, if they want her on a team just do Gotham City Sirens. Would have proffered Barbara Gordon, teamed up with just Black Canary and Huntress for the first film, but I am a big Cassandra Cain fan. Although if Lady Shiva is going to be in it, maybe they can still include Barbara, maybe they should use Birds Of Prey to also adapt the Cassandra cain origin, Lady Shiva be the villain, have Barbara be Oracle, and have her eventually be taken in by the Birds and turn against her mother. Maybe make Cassandra younger than usual, maybe 10 to 13, and maybe have her take on the Batgirl mantle in the sequel

@NinnesMBC - Eh, Hush is so tied to Bruce Wayne though.

I agree in that I’m dying to see Hush as a live-action Batman villain (and The Court of Owls, and Red Hood), but I think they should be saved for Matt Reeves’ movie(s)
