Suicide Squad was a box office hit, but a lot of fans were left disappointed by the movie and are still anxious to see the franchise taken in a new direction with The Suicide Squad. James Gunn is at the helm, and it now looks like the director may have confirmed the involvement of Margot Robbie's Harley Quinn.

Plenty of rumours have pointed to her making an appearance, but a social media post from Gunn is what's got fans talking today.

As you can see below, he shared some photos of an arcade/lounge that Microsoft has seemingly provided for the team working on the DC Comics adaptations, and in the third image Gunn has spelled out "Harley" on an oversized game of Scrabble along with "King Shark" (we know that character is set to appear, and the prevailing theory is that he'll be played by Michael Rooker). 

This may mean something or absolutely nothing, but we know that Gunn like to tease fans on Twitter and that he's not shy about correcting them about certain reports or rumours.

We'll have to wait and see when it comes to Harley Quinn's future after Birds of Prey, but here's hoping she's in The Suicide Squad!

What are you talking about? Variety confirmed Harley Quinn's return back in April
With this decision, it looks like the only three characters expected to return are Harley Quinn with Margot Robbie, Jai Courtney’s Captain Boomerang, and Viola Davis’ Amanda Waller.

Not entirely excited to see what Gunn will do with this film. I also keep forgetting it's supposed to be happening. That being said he does seem to be taking it seriously and has his own vision, but it's so odd to me after Suicide Squad was seen as a Guardians wannabe, WB got James Gunn to do their sequel. But he was a free man because of Disney anyway.

@Jeight8 - Well....comics were always aimed at 12 year old boys. It's not surprising really when you think about it

You can't do the Squad without Harley now.

SMH, why the secrecy? Just say she is in it or not, which makes me think she is not because with Harley in it would only help get people excited

I get Margot Robbie is a big actress, is super talented and people like her character, but I really don't care about Harley, hope it turns out great though.

@JustAChillFan - she is a good actress but she is not good as HARLEY---AT ALL imo.
