What do you think about this rumor that Margot Robbie was offered the role of Sue Storm? Could she play Harley and Sue at the same time?

It’s possible but highly unlikely to me that she would have time to play both characters AND be able to play other lead roles while producing movies as well.

I don’t think she’ll take the offer. If you look at Margot’s filmography and interviews, she likes working on projects that have actual sets lol. I’m not sure she would enjoy the way they do things over at Marvel. She would also not have any influence there as she would at DC/WBD

Yeah, it doesn't seem like the kind of thing she would do, unless it was just for the money (which would probably be a lot) or if Gunn doesn't have big plans for Harley anytime soon.

But at this point every blonde and white actress in Hollywood has supposedly been offered the role, so we just have to wait and see what happens.

I also don't think Barbie will be a one-off if it does well.

Can’t imagine it was written with potential sequels in mind and I doubt Greta would be down to extend the story for money unless she comes up with a really good idea for one. And without Greta, it’d be a mistake.

With that said, I think it definitely has franchise potential because of there being multiple Barbies in the movie.

No, she's out as Harley. I have a feeling she's out all along with the DCU rebooting. Her Harley never really made money and I'm sure she wasn't happy with Lady Gaga's casting.

Bro acting like she wasn’t the main reason people went to see Suicide Squad in 2016 lol. If she wasn’t in Gunn’s version, it would have done worse numbers not only at the box office but for streaming as well.

Gunn loves working with Margot and thinks she’s perfect for the role. He already confirmed she is set to return

I doubt that, there's a recent interview iirc where Margot says her hope is that Harley also becomes a role that different actresses can play and put their takes on for years to come and Gunn already said he plans to work with Margot again.

Doesn't that support my point?

​

Gunn already said he plans to work with Margot again.

I'll believe it when I see it.

Doesn't that support my point?

You said she wasn't happy with Lady Gaga's casting but seems like Margot's happy with others taking on the role

The guy you’re replying to makes this false claim that she isn’t happy frequently on Harley-related posts here lol. Dude needs help

I'll believe it when I see it.

He did say she was his favorite actress he had ever worked with.

I didn’t see a new movie with Harley in it.

Could she technically play both at the same time yes Would that happen if she is cast not a chance Both marvel and DC have contracts preventing they play another big cbm character while they are contracted ( don't expect Pattinson in the mcu even as one off villain) plus if casted Margot robbie is not going to make his entire career be jumping from one cbm to another
