Harley Quinn is obviously the one 'Suicide Squad' character that fans are looking forward to seeing, second only to the Joker. The character, who will be played by Margot Robbie, received the most cheers when she first appeared in the Hall H trailer viewing during Comic-Con.
It is no surprise that director David Ayer might actually feature an origin story for Harley Quinn in 'Suicide Squad.' The Comic-Con trailer already showed that Harleen Quinzel is the Joker's victim, who he promises not to kill, but to hurt "really, really bad."
It looks like audiences will actually get to see how Harleen Quinzel turned into the crazy Harley Quinn. Margot Robbie's movie stunt double actually posted an Instagram photo showing the ACE Chemicals logo, but immediately deleted it. Although the picture has been removed, Birth. Death. Movies managed to get a screenshot of the image before it got taken down.
It seems like an innocent photo, and an unusual picture to post unless you are Bryan Singer trying to tease fans. However, the image actually suggests that the film will adapt Harley Quinn's origin story as mentioned in the 'Suicide Squad' comic book, where the Joker dumps Harleen Quinzel into a vat of chemicals.
Harley Quinn's origin story somehow mirrors the Joker's own legend in the Alan Moore graphic novel 'Batman: The Killing Joke,' where the Clown Prince of Crime falls into an ACE Chemicals vat.
The appearance of the ACE Chemical logo may not necessarily mean that Harley Quinn's origin story will be shown. It also opens the possibility that the Joker's origin story will be tackled as well.
'Suicide Squad' also stars Will Smith as Deadshot, Joel Kinnaman as Rick Flag, Jai Courtney as Captain Boomerang, Cara Delevingne as Enchantress and Viola Davis as Amanda Waller. The Joker will be played by Academy Award winner Jared Leto.
The film is scheduled for release on August 5, 2016.
