MTV News caught up with Margot Robbie at the Sundance Film Festival to talk Suicide Squad, and they started off by asking the actress how she feels to be the first actress to bring Harley Quinn to life on the big screen. "Yeah, I guess it’s intimidating because there’s obviously a lot of people I want to please, and a character I have to do justice, but it’s a challenge, I’m definitely up for it, and hopefully I don’t disappoint." Unfortunately, when the site asked if she has a specific voice in mind, she couldn't give too many details away about the project as it's still in such early stages. "We haven’t gotten too far into it, we’re still pretty far off. I’m actually shooting a movie before that, so my focus is kind of on that at the moment, we haven’t really gotten into the logistics of everything yet." She then went on to express her excitement to work with Jared Leto (he plays The Joker in the movie), describing him as a "Great, great co-star." What do you guys think?

If she doesn't refer to the Joker as "Puddin" at some point, I'm gonna be pissed

I just hope this version of Harley Quinn, is going to be like BTAS version. That's the original one, plus her suit and history is better then the New 52 one.

On a serious note, I'm ridiculously curious to see how they adapt her outfit. None of the New 52 stuff, please. Not even the Arkham game stuff, either. Obviously they won't go with the traditional one-piece outfit, but a blend of those elements would be nice.

Margot should go out and buy BTAS and use that for the inspiration of how to play the character. If she was playing another character, I'd say she should go buy some comics, but because Harley first was in BTAS that's what she needs to go by instead.

I don't see Ayer giving Harley her OG costume. That's something only Snyder/Wilkinson would go for.

" I like the relationship where she pines for him but hes too focused on being a psycho to return any affection"

I second this.
