This isn’t strictly answering your question but back in the day Brittany Murphy would’ve been amazing 


[deleted]

She would’ve been perfect


btwndreamnreality

If it was made in the late 90s/early 2000s I think Fairuza Balk would have been perfect. I wouldn't even mind her doing it now tbh.


confusinglylarge

Victoria Pedretti because she is amazing.


_helloalien

I need her in more things in general because she just lights up the screen. She’s so talented!


macabruhhh

Victoria Pedretti lmao


FickleBeans

This is the only reply that considers aesthetics *and* sheer talent. I would pay MONEY to see Victoria as Harley


Niiiccc

Ella Purnell or Imogen Poots


Bubbly-Ad1346

Y’all gona hate but hear me out Anne Hathaway


Kate090996

Is the mouth, isn't it?


watchberry

Julia Roberts could make it work too then lol


bagelsneedcreamchz

Anya Taylor Joy. I would love to see her go completely unhinged. She has the look and the acting chops


heids7

Krysten Ritter


discourse_commuter

Hunter Schafer would kill it.


xena_70

This was what I came here to say!


BlueFox5

Kate McKinnon. ![gif](giphy|pyzQbGN88F7vJiknes)


ToLiveAndDieInICT

I think that Drew ca. 1995 would have been great.


grandciel

Victoria Pedretti and Mia Goth are the two that immediately come to mind for Harley in a traditional comic book movie. And I think Kirsten Dunst could've also totally pulled off a darker Harley alongside Heath's Joker tbh. Flipping it around a little bit, I've always imagined that, if Harley Quinn had already existed back when the first Batman movie came out, the perfect actress for a Harley opposite Jack Nicholson's Joker would've been Carol Kane: https://preview.redd.it/3gxypm7hzxcc1.png?width=730&format=png&auto=webp&s=d46004d4895842c1fa174c9ad1b51e098be82181 \+ Jennifer Tilly but in Joel Schumacher's campier Batman films


watchberry

* Evan Rachel Wood * Miley Cyrus * Amanda Seyfried * Saiorse Ronan - would probably make it special and like her own imo


societyofv666

Evan would be excellent!


helahuset

After the episode of Black Mirror that she was in I feel like Annie Murphy could really pull off the roll! I could also picture Sydney Sweeney doing a good job with it


mansonfamily

I know she’s problematic af but ![gif](giphy|xTiTnj0yBC3LkzuLu0) She’d kill as Harley


OctoberSong_

I admittedly haven’t seen her act in years, but I can’t see her pulling it off. Any roles that show her depth as an actor I should check out?


43XStitchX21

Didn’t she turn the role(of Harley Quinn) down for Scream Queens? Or at least that’s what I always see on the internet


Bubbly-Ad1346

But she is in Scream Queens? Or do you mean initially?


43XStitchX21

I could’ve worded that better sorry, I meant the role of Harley Quinn in Suicide Squad


Bubbly-Ad1346

Oooooh okay, I didn’t know that. She would kill it


kissingdistopia

I'd like to see Emilia Clark's eyebrows be menacing.


tpdwbi

Kaley Cuoco


tpdwbi

Downvoted but she is the best Harley already.


herinaus

Lindsay Lohan. She was dressed as Harley Quinn once iirc, and I thought she would have been amazing too.


ToLiveAndDieInICT

Unlike Robbie and Gaga, I don't think she would have been acting.


FeralBaby7

cara delevingne. Not sure she has the full acting chops, haven't seen her in enough things to know, but she has the right look and vibe.


confusinglylarge

OMG I thought she was terrrrrrrrible in Suicide Squad (the first one by David Ayer). I used to touch friends who saw the movie and whisper "Enchantressss ...." because I knew they hated it, too. I only saw the movie once (and parts of it twice), so I don't have the best recollection of whether she was totally competent and it was all the script/editing/direction. I don't think so, though.


FeralBaby7

Wow, I hadn't seen that and didn't even know she was in it. Truthfully, I've seen her in one movie (Valerian) and she was kind of wooden in that. I was just going from her look and vibe in modeling!
