Margot Robbie says her upcoming film ‘Birds of Prey’ explores an aesthetically and tonally different world that sets it apart from Joaquin Phoenix’s ‘Joker’.
Titled ‘Birds of Prey: And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn’, the movie is a spin-off of ‘Suicide Squad’ that introduced Robbie’s character Harley Quinn.
Talking to a news agency, the actor said she has seen and liked Phoenix’s performance in ‘Joker’, directed by Todd Phillips.
“I did, yeah. He did a phenomenal job. Our world in ‘Birds of Prey’ is very different the aesthetic, the tone. Very, very different. Ours is certainly a heightened reality. There’s a clear distinction between real life and what you’re experiencing on the screen. I feel like the ‘Joker’ film was much more grounded. Ours is different,” Robbie said.
‘Birds of Prey’, directed by Cathy Yan, also features Mary Elizabeth Winstead as Huntress, Jurnee Smollett-Bell as Black Canary, Ella Jay Basco as Cassandra Cain and Rosie Perez as Renee Montoya.
The movie is slated to be released on February 7. PTI
