Actress <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/celebrities">Margot Robbie</a> said she’s keen on playing <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/comics">Harley Quinn</a> and exploring her romance with Poison Ivy for the first time on the big screen. 
The 32-year-old native Australian, who has played the role of Quinn in several projects, made the comments during a recent <a href="https://comicbook.com/tv-shows/news/twitter-reacts-dc-universe-harley-quinn-poison-ivy-first-kiss/">interview</a> with ComicBook.com while promoting her new <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/entertainment">movie</a>, “Babylon.” When asked about bringing the romance between the two characters front and center in a potential film version, Robbie said she’s not just open to it, she’s also been asking for it.
&#8220;I have been pushing for that for years. I cannot tell you how hard I&#8217;ve been pushing for that. I want it too,&#8221; the actress said of a future project with their lesbian romance front and center. 
When asked who should play Poison Ivy opposite her, she said, &#8220;Honestly, when I pictured, I always picture like Poison Ivy in the comics. I don&#8217;t really actually picture an actress doing it, but I agree, that would be so good.&#8221;

The romance between these two DC Comics characters won’t be new, but so far, it hasn’t been included in any film adaptations. A 2020 episode of the adult animated TV series “Harley Quinn” featured the first kiss between Harley and Poison Ivy. Some fans started calling the couple &#8220;Harlivy&#8221; after the reality of their romantic feelings became clear.
Series co-creator Justin Halpern <a href="https://comicbook.com/dc/news/harley-quinn-showrunners-confirm-harlivy-romance-season-two/">explained</a> to ComicBook.com, &#8220;We tried to play the reality of how messy, uncomfortable, and awkward it would be to figure out that you&#8217;re in love with your best friend. It&#8217;s messy, it takes a while, and it&#8217;s not smooth at all. And there are definitely a lot of two steps forward, one step back kind of thing going on.&#8221; 
For now, it’s unclear if Robbie will reprise her role as Harley Quinn in the future. Next up to take on the character is Lady Gaga opposite Joaquin Phoenix in “Joker: Folie A Deux,” which is scheduled to be released in October 2024. The publication notes that since “Joker” is not set in the same cosmos as the DC Extended Universe, it means Lady Gaga isn’t technically replacing Robbie.
Robbie said she’s excited to see the “Bad Romance” singer interpret the character.
&#8220;It makes me so happy because I said from the very beginning that all I want is for Harley Quinn to be one of those characters, the way Macbeth or Batman, always gets passed from great actor to great actor,&#8221; Robbie told <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n88nYIEBQSU&amp;t=493s">MTV News</a>. 
“&#8230; It&#8217;s such an honor to have built a foundation strong enough that Harley can now be one of those characters that other actors get to have a go at playing. And I think [Lady Gaga will] do something incredible with it.&#8221;
