"Harley Quinn (DC Universe)" Animated Series News & Discussion, Part 1 (Spoilers)

[RoyalRubble]

I was thinking they would split the show in two, like with Young Justice Outsiders, and also have 2-3 episodes per week. But going just by how they premiered Titans this year, I guess it's possible to have a show last from October to the end of the year.

Speaking of which, the second batch YJ episodes should also overlap with Swamp Thing, I think.

True, they could do the first half of Harley then put out Titans season 2, then the second half after in early 2020. That option would probably be for the better considering the animating process.

Don't recall if this was put here before, but Shane Glines mentions that he's the supervising character designer here.

 

[Pfeiffer-Pfan]

Good stuff... always did like Glines' work.

Awesome! Happy to see Shane Glines doing character designs on another DC cartoon .

It's not much, but here are some comments from Alan Tudyk about his portrayal of Joker. NOTE: The article contains some foul language.

He also mentions Tony Hale voices Doctor Psycho.

Hey, they're Joker voice buddies .

February 18th:
It's a minor thing, but Amber Blade Jones is working as a revisionist on the show, and shared some character studies.

March 8th:
Looks like more images from the show leaked online. There's also one with Harley & Joker together, complete with a glimpse at a script page (but this one requires a NSFW warning).

EDIT:
I missed this earlier since no source was listed, but it appears Kaley Cuoco shared the images on Instagram.

Some more brief footage can also be seen in this DC Universe teaser.

Looks like Harley trades in her classic duds for the Amanda Conner design once she leaves Joker and goes solo. I'm not surprised, although I was kind of hoping she'd keep her classic design .

Look at that chin on Joker. John Byrne, eat your heart out .

Some more brief footage can also be seen in this DC Universe teaser.

Cool .

Kind of off-topic, but is any of that Wonder Girl (Cassie) footage new ?

 

[Batboy84]

Yes. Yes it is. Actually all the YJ footage is new save for the brief shot of Artemis. Also hi.
Edit: Excuse me, shots of Artemis. One from the 3 part premiere, and the shot where she's leaping at Black Manta.

3/29: New reports that the show is scheduled to premiere in "late Fall".

4/1: New promo video narrated by Mr. Nobody. (Mod Note: Brief footage of Harley)

New reports that the show is scheduled to premiere in "late Fall".

Wasn't it previously announced it comes out October 11?

Nice bonus to see a very brief 2 shots of Harley animation.

April 10th:
The audio isn't that great but here's a short interview with Christopher Meloni about the show. Doesn't really reveal much (as far as I could understand, anyway).

April 21st:
Minor point but Jefferson Friedman will score the music. He previously worked with the producers on Powerless.

I remember liking the score from Powerless, so that's good to hear .

Thanks! I've submitted the credit to IMDb, though they prefer that such credits be added for individual episodes, so we'll see what happens. As of now, the item is 'pending'.

EDIT 4/22/19: The credit was declined. "Reason Does not meet contribution guidelines." I'll let it go for someone who doesn't mind the trouble of submitting it for individual episodes.

 

[Yojimbo]

Vinton Heuck is one of the directors.

 

[SweetShop209]

Christina Sotta is also a director.

Christina Sotta is also a director.

That's awesome to learn she's got a directing gig at last after working on a lot of the DTVs over the years. But in the greater scheme, that's 2 directors we've learned of in a short amount of time. Maybe there's 1 or 2 more. I'd guess whatever NDA has expired and more of the crew will be revealing themselves.

Makes me wonder if we'll see Nightwing show up, although I hope his relationship with Harley is different then in the animated movie .

Never thought of the heroes but my shot in the dark guess would be he and Batman would appear like they did in that Joker episode of The Brave & The Bold.
