Suicide Squad' News & Update: Margot Robbie, Playing Haley Quinn in ‘Suicide Squad’, Calls Her Character the Coolest Baddie

Harley Quinn's representation as a baseball wielding, skimpily hot-pants clad, girlfriend of Joker (Jared Leto), makes her one of the most sought after characters in the upcoming movie. Robbie says that her character is bound to get all the attraction as the demented character is the best in the squad of baddies.

In an interview with Nicole Prickett of Oyster Magazine, Robbie said that what fascinated her about the character of Quinn was simply the fact that she is coolest in the bunch. "For the first time, I thought that I had the best character in the movie. I wouldn't trade my character in Suicide Squad for anyone else's...The comics are rad...I hadn't read any growing up, but now I'm obsessed. I read them in my own time. We went to Comic-Con...and I didn't get to be in and amongst it because we were shooting, but the energy is insane. People are nuts. I could go as Harley Quinn in the actual costume from the movie, and somebody there would have a better one."

According to Robbie, she didn't have to audition for the role and that her enthusiasm for her character is still strong, even when she feels a little conscious about the scanty punk-rock costume donned by Quinn.

Whether or not Robbie really does steal the show in "Suicide Squad" is a question that can be best answered when the movie hits the theaters on Aug. 5. However, looking at the film trailers, her coolness and performance only proves her enthusiasm.
