Birds of Prey
DC’sBirds of Prey ( And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn)has gotten the drone it deserves for its former base release . A quasi - sequel toSuicide Squad , the film pick up with Margot Robbie ’s Harley Quinn shortly after she ’s dump by the Joker , only to stop up protect a untested pickpocket name Cassandra Cain ( ( Ella Jay Basco ) from the crime lord Roman Sionis ( Ewan McGregor ) . While it realize largely convinced reviews , the movie struggled at the box office , with many pointing to itsR - rating and merchandising - unfriendly titleas contributing gene . Fortunately , it will get a 2nd jibe at success when it arrives earlier than antecedently scheduled on VOD next Tuesday .
With less than a hebdomad to gobefore it reaches the home market , Warner Bros. is bewilder its marketing forBirds of Preyup and running once more . Since there are a lot of people who have n’t really see the motion picture yet but could potentially watch it on - demand , the studio is refraining from using spoiler to betray the celluloid ( a la what Disney did to promoteEndgameandThe Rise of Skywalker ’s home firing ) . In doing so , they ’ve also put together what ’s easily the effective prescribed trailer forBirds of Preyyet .

Unlike theBirds of Preytheatrical drone , this home release trailer dead conquer the moving picture ’s madcap tint and sense of tempo . It does an equally excellent job of showcasing cartridge clip from the movie ’s most memorable action sequences , be it the view where Harley breaks into the Gotham City Police Department to unloosen Cassandra or her big team - up combat with Huntress ( Mary Elizabeth Winstead ) , Black Canary ( Jurnee Smollett - Bell ) , and Renee Montoya ( Rosie Perez ) . mouth of which , the drone skips over using the photographic film ’s prescribed - andfar less Harley Quinn focused- title to underscore it ’s a DCEU movie about"Harley Quinn & the Birds of Gotham"instead . It ’s a smart change that verbalise to more casual audiences who know what Gotham City is andremember Harley fromSuicide Squad , but have never take heed of the various Birds of Prey before .
In many room , it ’s frustrating WB did n’t think tomarketBirds of Preylike thisfrom the get - go ; if they had , the moving picture might ’ve perform significantly better at the box office . fortuitously , they have a chance to rectify things a short with its home release selling , which will hopefully allow the movie to become a success story in the long run . If so , that will improve the odds of WB giving the fleeceable - light to another Harley Quinn spinoff in the future and not curtail her toroles in theSuicide Squadmoviesonly . In the lag , everyone can calculate forward to watchingBirds of Preyat home much sooner than they anticipated .
