They didn't replace Margot. This is a totally different universe of Batman. In reality, we don't even know if Batman exists in this particular universe.

[@TenkoVA]

At the very least I don't think he exists yet, we saw a young Bruce Wayne in the first one but who knows

[@TexanEagleFan]

​@@TenkoVA the parents were killed at the end of the first movie so Batman does exist just really young 🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️

[@darlalathan6143]

He does, but he's a little boy.

[@Aleksandr_Skrjabin]

@@TexanEagleFan So he will fight grandpa Joker once maybe

[@lynpachuau]

In reality, batman never existed 😂😂

They didn’t replace her though, it’s just a different series

I thought lady gagas voice sounded to cool and sexy to play Harley Quinn but they're right it is a fresh take on a character

[@meowiamacat3764]

I don’t know about you, but I feel like Lady Gaga would be a good poison ivy with the voice, but that might just be me

[@AdventureTimeOut800]

…..ur on to something

[@kumottakun6089]

They really should've made her as Ivy. Have her do an origin movie THEN make a Harley/Ivy movie with Margot. That would've been epic. Gag's a bit short on the height tho 😅

[@CarlosGonzalez-jh2cw]

REPLACEMENT? IS LITERALLY ANOTHER UNIVERSE

[@sjc4]

thank u

[@bringerod5141]

I think she will fit perfectly beside Juaquin Phoenix

[@litjellyfish]

Why would Margot give her blessing? She did not create the character

[@LaPaisiblePetiteGnomette]

Exactly. Harley Quinn was inspired by Arleen Sorkin not Margot Robbie.

[@litjellyfish]

@@LaPaisiblePetiteGnomette she was the original voice actor yes. Still that is not what I meant I meant that Margot did not create Harley, Paul Dini and Bruce Timm did. So if anyone should give their blessing it’s them.

[@LaPaisiblePetiteGnomette]

@@litjellyfish Yes, I agree the original creator are the only one who should judge if the cast is good 👍

[@darlalathan6143]

No, but she played her first.

[@LaPaisiblePetiteGnomette]

@@darlalathan6143 And so ? This is so childish to say that the character belongs to her just bc she played it first. This version of Harley Quinn is also supposed to be different to the og comic version.

[@martincanga6484]

I'm so excited to see Lady Gaga as Harley Quinn

[@Wahinies]

Gaga is perfect, the connection she can portray with other characters is so palpable you can feel it. I cant wait.

[@PeachHeadzAddiction]

I love it, we need the dark concept for Harley again! Refresh the whole reason why she became popular as a cartoon character 😍

[@MayerClassicTheater]

I hope we see Margot Robbie Harley again. My fav character of the DCU

Real reason : Gaga is the harley quinn for Joaquin's joker ! See they even look like they are made for each other 😊

[@Knoboddie]

Lady Gaga's Harley Quinn looks like it better matches that universe's joker

[@neilrivera4194]

I'm excited for this, it's giving American Horror Story Hotel vibes. Nice work Lady Gaga! Both are Oscar winners btw

[@davidariyan7915]

Why they replaced her? Well consider this is in different multiverse. They already replaced Joker right? Beside this universe is better

[@LaPaisiblePetiteGnomette]

Real

[@ATR000]

Also, considering how bad Margot Robbie's portrayal of Harley, you can only get better

[@xneurotoxic]

i wouldn't say "replace", because in most of these movies they would get a new actor for batman, joker, everyone.. whenever i watch these films i don't expect to see the old actors again

[@LaPaisiblePetiteGnomette]

@@xneurotoxic Lady Gaga was 37 years old during the filming of the movie, she's not old.

[@davidariyan7915]

@@LaPaisiblePetiteGnomette he meant the "old" actors is the former actors who portrayed the sama characters from previous movies. 37 is still young

[@bittersweetmadam]

I love Robbie, she is such a positive woman

[@mariusg8824]

Margot Robbie hated her role as Harley Quinn. She hated the outfit, she didn't like several of the director's decisions. And despite getting very popular, she didn't like where her career was going.

[@darasagan7479]

What I like about Margot is that she speaks in a calm and collected way, she’s humble and still entertaining in interviews. Some big actresses in Hollywood nowadays resort to fake compliments, over exaggerated gestures, try hard jokes, ego feeding ( I do this and I do that) and they often are extremely vain. She may not be the best actress out there but she’s very hard working and I’m sure soon it will bear fruits in terms of awards, accolades and greater chances.

[@dcmastermindfirst9418]

This is an Elseworlds movie so GaGa is in a different universe. Nothing to do with Robbie.

[@antfolchiable]

Been gaga over Gaga for a long time. Gorgeous woman, beautiful voice and she looks awesome as Harley Q. Cant wait!!!

[@audreysmith6221]

A lovely lady supporting another lovely lady…that’s cool to see. ❤

[@Igor_Dust414]

Mirrored Margot Robbie Harley Quinn clips😤 She's always 🩷🩵

[@dramagirl890]

Im so excited. I love every version of Harley❤❤

[@dramagirl890]

DC is a multiverse, every reimagined Harley and joker will not be the same. It's a whole different dimension, so they can take as much creative freedom to create their version of the characters in unimagined images. That's doesn't make them any less Harley and Joker, just not the universe or version you used to.

[@Kastle9498]

easy answer. two different universes

[@educaracas726]

I love both universes, and love both actresses. They fit their purpose. Can't wait to see Gaga's performance.

[@KawaiiPrincess_Love]

Gotta love Margot for being so graceful and mature as to give Gaga her blessing ❤

[@hightopv1352]

I think gaga will play Harley beautifully. I'm excited to see her take on the character ❤

[@user-er1xh4ul7u]

Yeees, billions of people work hard, and never give up! And few people achieve everything, something biggest thing! Thank for this motivation!

[@UnkxwnEvan]

So how come no one says Phoenix replacing Heath? Because he's not, he's just another joker in another movie

[@Quartzking25]

Gaga is such an icon. I’m so excited to see how she does in this role

[@dmhq-administration]

GOSH! 😲 Margot Robbie's SO pretty without makeup! 🥰🤗💖

[@NaReRa2013]

joker berbeda harley yang berbeda. kenapa tidak.. saya tetap mencintai margot menjadi harley, tapi saya yakin dia tidak cocok bersama phoenix dan gaga menurutku sudah sangat yang paling cocok. ayolah mereka dari flm yang berbeda hentikan untuk membanding-bandingkan dari ke dua wanita super keren ini

[@emilyschmidt95]

im excited to watch both renditions but i already know you both OWNED your characters. cant wait to get inspiration from you both :)

[@GrungeGalactica]

Gaga will fit the role and feel of that joker so well, might have to go watch it ❤

[@AndDeathForAll82]

It’s a different Joker. Why wouldn’t it be a different Harley? It wouldn’t make sense if it wasn’t.

[@u.r.m.o.m1]

Personally I think margot just does a better job since lady gaga is more of a singer and the makeup looks better in suicide squad then joker 2

[@LaPaisiblePetiteGnomette]

Lady Gaga studio method acting for 10 yo

[@LaPaisiblePetiteGnomette]

Also the costume of suicide squad doesn't fit to Joker 2 which is more vintage and take place in the 70s. And I prefer personally Gaga's costume which looks more like an harlequin.

[@nicholaswright2011]

@@LaPaisiblePetiteGnometteexactly

[@l3x1010]

Yo suicide squad make up is bad!

[@IanBrady-lc6si]

They haven’t replaced her Margot will be playing her own incarnation of Harley as usual thankfully. It’s a different tradition to Joker. So Harley can have simultaneous separate incarnations and hopefully no alleged curse therefore 😻

[@JulieLewis-bl6ut]

Lady Gaga will do an AWESOME job!!❤❤

[@noodlem5000]

Wow, that’s like, so considerate of Margot Robbie to give her blessing to Stefani Germanotta. I totally didn’t realize it was up to her and not like, ya know, the people above the line.

[@Samira9129]

I do believe lady gaga will be amazing as Harley Quinn, can’t wait for joker 2

[@gushernandez25]

Creative freedom is the reason why I don't have favorites in the comic book universe. Seeing different versions of a character ruins what makes those characters unique. That's just my opinion.

[@TheGarrbear3]

They didn't replace her, it's not the same universe and nor part of the DCU. This is dumb

[@LittlePrettySunnyIdol0209]

"If You Work Hard And You Don't Give Up, You Can Do Anything." - Lady Gaga

[@stevrgrs]

Margot Robbie was never Harley Quinn. She did a nice job but didn’t have all the bitterness, backstabbing, and psychosis . Lady Gaga on the other hand fits the role perfectly 😂

[@CCN589]

I love Gaga, her Harley is different from Harley in SS that very lively and crazy. But both of them still beautiful. I think Gaga suits this Harley because this HQ seems more real to human who has a strong vision in her head in what she believes.

[@abdizur8765]

That reminds me I need to re-watch Joker before Joker 2. Technically Margo is still Harley just in a different universe.

[@ZodiacBoi42]

I’m glad they didn’t put Margot in here cuz it really would ruin the tone of the first. I’m genuinely excited to see Gaga’s performance because the director had to have something he really could see from her as Harley. I think people have been hating on the movie so much without seeing it yet.

[@missdiamond169]

when i first saw her, i thought she was average, but i realize my mistake now because my gosh, she is so hot, not to mention she is also talented. It really surprised me when I found out she could act

In the Gaga, Phoenix version of DC comics' Batman should be played by Pete Holmes.

Because they are two different versions of the character. That's like wondering why Margot Robbie was cast and not Tara Strong. Two different versions.

It's because of the second reason, cause in the comics they have a crossover of the other universe, so that's most likely they are going to do that in the future
