Rumor: Megan Fox Eyed For Poison Ivy In ‘Suicide Squad’ Spinoff ‘Gotham City Sirens’
This week brought the news thatSuicide Squad’sDavid Ayerwould be directingGotham City Sirens, a female DC supervillain team-up.Margot Robbie’s Harley Quinn is slated to return (and Robbie herself is an executive producer on the project), but the question now is which other characters could join her — and who might play them.
Well, it should come as no surprise that Harley Quinn’s BFF Poison Ivy is believed to be involved in the movie, but what’s more interesting is who’s rumored to play her. According to a new report,Megan Foxmight be circling the role.
Just to be clear, this is very much just arumorfor now. With that said,Bleeding Coolis speculating that Megan Fox is looking to play Poison Ivy. They claim she’s recently had some very interesting comic book titles shipped to her Warner Studios address, includingHarley Quinn #14andHarley Quinn #17, both of which feature Poison Ivy. And for what it’s worth,Fox has said beforethat Poison Ivy is a character she’d like to play.
It’s definitely possible that all of this adds up to nothing. Maybe Fox just felt like reading some comics. Maybe she’s gunning for the role, but not in serious consideration yet. Even if sheisin the mix, it could be a while before Warner Bros. and Ayer make any decisions. This is sure to be the first of many rumors about this film, so stay tuned.
While details onGotham City Sirensare still sparse, Ayer has hinted that Catwoman could stand alongside Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn as one of the main characters. All three are prominently featured in theGotham City Sirenscomic books on which the film is based. The script comes fromGeneva Robertson-Dworet, whose other works include the upcomingTomb Raiderreboot,Sherlock Holmes 3, andDungeons & Dragons.

Robbie is the one whogot the ball rollingonGotham City Sirens, after her research into Harley Quinn forSuicide Squadled to her becoming interested in DC’s other female characters. She enlisted a writer to help develop the project and then approached Warner Bros. about making it a reality. The studio, naturally, was more than happy to get on board with a film featuring one of DC’s most popular characters and starring one of Hollywood’s most buzzed-about actresses.
Despite the severely mixed (to put it mildly) critical reaction toSuicide Squad, the film made a good chunk of money and Warner Bros. now has several follow-ups in development.Gotham City Sirensis the furthest along, but they’re also working on a properSuicide Squadsequel and a Deadshot spinoff featuring Will Smith.
