In addition to all the action-packed madness, they dropped new character posters which you can check out below. They also debuted a new CCXP trailer which included McGregor donning the Black Mask for the first time, Smollett-Bell’s metahuman Canary Cry and tons of new footage to leave the crowd hyped for the pic which opens February 7, 2020. “It was so much fun.”Īnd just because its a female-driven superhero pic primarily made for women and by women, Robbie insists that “feminism isn’t just for the ladies.” She assures, “Dudes can be feminist too!” Robbie adds that it was great to have Yan on board to bring a fresh female perspective to the narrative. The footage and the cast explodes with unapologetic feminism - something we haven’t seen in a comic book film before. More than that, considering the opening scene sets the tone and thematic elements of the movie - particularly the theme of womanhood and feminism. Robbie shares that each of the characters has a score to settle with Roman Sionis aka the Black Mask (Ewan McGregor). “We worked so hard on this movie to see your reaction - especially the ladies in the audience.” Spinning out of the events of 2020's Birds of Prey, Black Canary would be written by Green and would star Smollett as the titular hero, who fights crime with the help of her martial arts skills. “That was amazing to watch your reaction - that is why we do what we do,” said an excited Yan. The footage from the envelope-pushing R-rated film was the first time the majority of the cast saw it and it was met with unhinged cheers from the crowd. But in the footage shown, it is clear that Harley is looking for a new group of gal pals to cause some trouble. It’s clearly a moment reminiscent of Waiting to Exhale when Angela Bassett’s character sets her ex’s car and clothes on fire in an act of catharsis. We then see Harley return to the scene of the crime where she met the Joker and she demolishes it. She cuts her hair, eats junk food, gets a new tattoo and buys a pet hyena named Bruce (that dines on the leg of a man who inappropriately propositions Harley). As many do, she looks to create a new version of herself to get over her ex. “Behind every successful man there’s a badass broad,” said Harley Quinn in a voiceover as we cut to her getting thrown out on the street in tears after her break up. The crowd erupted again as they shared the opening scene from the film which showed Harley getting over her break up with the Joker. Jurnee Smollett-Bell: Oh man, we tried to capture the essence of Dinah Lance from the comic books as a street fighter raised in Gotham, the daughter of a crime fighter. As she further went into making the new DC film, she paused and said, “how about we just show you?” “Our world is crazy unpredictable - as you can expect,” said Robbie. Robbie explained how the movie came about and was excited to create this story of unlikely friends. Go watch it.Margot Robbie On The Sexualization Of Barbie & Why She Wanted To Cast Gal Gadot As for Birds of Prey, it's currently streaming on HBO Max right now. ![]() Birds of Prey, and Netflix's Lou, which she also executive produced. Smollett has real movie star charisma, and she absolutely killed it in Lovecraft Country. Marc Maron (GLOW), Jurnee Smollett (Lovecraft Country), Alison Oliver (Saltburn), and Odessa Young (The Daughter). ![]() Of all the characters in Birds of Prey to get their own spin-off, Black Canary is an interesting, but not unexpected choice. She worked as a singer at the nightclub owned by the villainous Roman Sionis/Black Mask and secretly informed on his actions to Gotham City cop Renee Montoya. In the film, Black Canary was a metahuman (that's what they call superheroes in the ole DCEU) with a supersonic scream she inherited from her mother. Smollett played Black Canary/Dinah Lance in Birds of Prey (And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn), a damn good movie that deserves some respect, thank you very much. Guess the Canary is out of the cage! □ So excited to finally embark on this adventure with my creative soul sis □□ #blackcanary #dinahlance #lettttssssssgoooooo ahhhhhhhhh!!!!!
