'Gotham City Sirens': 'Suicide Squad' Director to Helm Harley Quinn Movie

It's official! Suicide Squad director David Ayer will be returning to the DC comic villains world, as he is set to helm Gotham City Sirens, a movie that focuses on the major female villains in the DC universe. As we previously learned, Margot Robbie will not only be reprising her role as the wacky Harley Quinn, but she will also executive produce the film alongside Ayer. 

The Hollywood Reporter made the spinoff announcement back in May, long before Suicide Squad premiered, stating that it won't only focus on Harley but other DCEU “female heroes and villains." Geneva Robertson-Dworet (the forthcoming Sherlock Holmes 3 and Tomb Raider) is writing the screenplay.
