Harley Quinn follows the titular supervillain after she kicks Joker to the curb and sets out to make her own identity in the criminal underworld of Gotham City. Her friendship with Poison Ivy has since progressed into a romantic relationship which will be further explored in season 3. Meanwhile, the dangerous duo takes their crimes to the road with Commissioner James Gordon in hot pursuit.
Justin Halpern, Patrick Schumacker, and Dean Lorey developed Harley Quinn for HBO Max. Halpern and Schumacker also serve as series showrunners. The animated series features the voices of Kaley Cuoco, Lake Bell, Alan Tudyk, Tony Hale, Ron Funches, Jason Alexander, J. B. Smoove, Diedrich Bader, Phil LaMarr, and Christopher Meloni.
A Harley Quinn Spinoff Series Is Also in the Works
Warner Bros. Television Distribution
There’s more to come from this animated world as HBO Max has also greenlit Noonan’s, a spinoff series focusing on Kite Man after he buys Noonan’s Bar. The establishment serves as a hangout spot for Gotham City’s criminals which allows for many interesting characters to be explored from Batman’s Rogues Gallery. The series has been described as “Cheers for supervillains” with Lex Luthor, Bane, and other familiar baddies making frequent appearances.
“We love the wild and fun world of Harley Quinn so much we just had to make a spin-off and who better to center it around than the outcast Kite Man,” an HBO Max/Adult Swim statement read when the project was announced, per Variety. “Justin, Patrick, and Dean have created the perfect local hangout for Gotham City’s not-so-finest at Noonan’s, where bar patrons can blow off steam after a long day of mayhem.”
Warner Bros. Animation’s Peter Girardi added, “Harley Quinn unlocked a world of hilarious possibilities with the iconic Super Heroes and Super-Villains of the DC Universe. Exploring this world further with our partners at HBO Max and DC is going to be a lot of fun. Plus, after getting dumped by Poison Ivy, the least we could do was give Kite Man his own show.”
Harley Quinn is streaming on HBO Max. Season 3 will arrive in July with an exact date soon to be announced.
