Cathy Yan could be set to direct theย Birdsย of Prey movie. The news that Warner Bros. was in the process of completing a deal with the director came via Deadline. This would make Yan the third female director to helm a DC Comics movie, with the first beingย Patty Jenkins, who directed Wonder Woman, and the second being Ava DuVernay who is helming the upcomingย The New Gods. Yan would also be the first female Asian director ever to direct a superhero film.

The film currently has no officialย title, but it would star Margot Robbieย as the character Harley Quinn. Robbie had reportedly lobbied hard to get a female director for the film. This would be a big deal for Yan as she has only previously directed one movie, the indie film,ย Dead Pigs. Theย film won the World Cinema Dramatic Award For Ensemble Acting at Sundance last January. Despite being a relative newcomer, Yan gave “a spectacular” presentation for Birds of Prey.

The movie will beย based on theย Birds of Prey comics,ย which teams Harley Quinn with several other female crime fighters. Some of the most prominent of these have been Black Canary, Barbara Gordon (Batgirl) and Huntress. It is currently unknown if any or all of them will be characters in the film. The script was written byย Christina Hodson, who wrote theย Transformersย spinoffย Bumblebee, and was recently hired to write theย Batgirlย movie.

In addition to Birds of Prey, there are several other movies in some state of production featuring Harley Quinn. These include a Harley Quinn solo movie, Harley Quinn Vs The Joker, Gothamย City Sirens, and the sequel to Suicideย Squad.ย This film looks like it could start production by yearโ€™s end or early next year after Robbie completesย Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.
