It’s also been rumored that Seydoux has auditioned for Catwoman, which may mean that the studio is going to begin paying more attention to David Ayer’sGotham City Sirens, which will likely star fan favorite Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn, Poison Ivy, and Catwoman, who are the typical members of the DC femme fatale trio. There is definitely a feminine focus from the studio here, if true. However, all of this news should be taken with a grain of salt, but we are likely to find out more about many of the upcoming DC Extended Universe projects, including casting announcements in the coming future at San Diego Comic Con 2018 during Warner Bros.’ Hall H panel.
For those who do not know, Black Canary is the love interest of DC superhero Oliver Queen/Green Arrow and a street-smart vigilante who inflicts justice on criminals after being inspired by her father, who was a police officer in Gotham City, but she herself could not join the police force. Her crusade against crime has seen her become a leader of the Birds of Prey alongside fellow DC heroines Oracle and the Huntress and a member of the Justice League of America. How this version of the character will differ from the numerous versions that have appeared on the popularDC televisionseriesArrowis unknown.
