Quotes[]
- "All I can say is that I will be in the movie, and it's going to be amazing."
- "You want the backstory of the character, but I think this is also a universe that David Ayer is going to create – there’s a lot more. Also, when you’re doing the first movie in a comic book, you always have the leeway of you’re going to move it from a comic book to a film and put it in real life – you’re always going to make a lot of changes and create a new universe. So you’re kind of setting a precedent. When you’re remaking a movie that’s already been made and a character that was made for the film, then it becomes a different thing and it’s more difficult to create something new without offending some people."
- "Flag is the highest level operator working for the government. He's had lots of friends die and has killed many, many people. Deadshot gives him the most problems. Harley is easily distracted, but up for following orders if it means destroying things..."
- "He wants to solve this with his team of operators that he can trust, but now he has these psychopaths that do no follow orders. Over the course of the movie he sees how effective they are and also that they have a moral foundation that they stand on."
- "She's got my back. We have a history but it doesn't really get explained."
- "Some of the stuff she said really pissed me off, and I felt really betrayed. And that’s exactly what David wanted me to feel...And now it’s in the movie. That’s some pretty high-level direction through manipulation."
