But yeah i wish this was an actual Birds Of Prey adaption.

Harley and Poison Ivy's relationship is one of the best parts of Harley's character and Harley has never really been a two dimensional character. Have you ever read Mad Love? A large part of her character has always been about trauma and a commentary on toxic relationships and her relationship with Ivy is important because it shows growth for both characters.

Poison Ivy's a great match for Harley because it's a relationship that deepens both characters further, Harley isn't stuck in a cycle of abuse when she's with Ivy and you get to see more of what makes Ivy tick when they're together since she's not just a murderous seductress with a somewhat relateable goal.

It would be a true disservice to the character of Harley if they ever made her a two dimensional character because that's not who she is.

They should have just done a Gotham City Sirens film tbh, it's dumb that they turned the Birds of Prey into Harley's sidekicks when they could have hit hte jackpot with a film that brings Harley together with Ivy and Catwoman. The amount of speculation and coverage over such a film would be insane, especially since the media often speculates about who would play those two characters although they aren't attached to a film yet.
