And now, whispers swirl through the comic book grapevine: could Margot Robbie be stepping back into red, black, and blue? 

While Gotham braces for corporate Justice Gangs and new Supermans, fans clutch their seats, wondering if the sassiest clown of all might crash this carefully curated chaos.

"That will be revealed down the line," James Gunn tells Entertainment Weekly. A line so cryptic it could be tattooed on a fortune cookie. Fans of Harley Quinn instantly spun it into their own chaotic theories, torn between excitement for inevitable mayhem and mild existential dread over Gunn’s mysterious timing. The man who brought Peacemaker into living rooms everywhere is now playing chess with the DC multiverse, and Margot Robbie’s iconic grin might just be the queen piece.

While James Gunn remained tight-lipped, the DC cinematic machine churns ahead. Superman got rebooted, Batman is lurking somewhere in a casting spreadsheet, and Wonder Woman is still a mystery wrapped in spandex. The corporate Justice Gang is now running the streets, leaving fans debating if Harley Quinn fits in this bureaucratic chaos, or if she will pop back in to remind everyone why rules exist only to be broken, pun fully intended.

Margot Robbie and Elba could collide onscreen again as the DC family expands, creating a cinematic bromance-slash-chaotic-queen moment that makes one wonder if Gunn is secretly running a chaotic matchmaking service for fan favorites.
