Basically!

In a change from the comic books/Harley Quinn character origin, it seems in this movie that Gaga will play Harley Quinn as a fellow inmate of the Arkham Asylum with Phoenix.

Originally in the comics, Harley was a clinical psychologist working FOR the Asylum who gets manipulated and "turned to the dark side" by Joker during their sessions, eventually falling in love with him.

The aesthetic of this movie looks stunning, the references to classic musicals (Singin' in the Rain for one) as well as modern ones (I see big La La Land inspo in certain scenes) is wonderful. Very pleasantly surprised after being somewhat dubious about the idea of a sequel, especially seeing as the first movie was really incredible as a stand-alone piece.
