'She wanted to do a girl gang, Harley and the Birds of Prey movie even though people didn’t know who the Birds of Prey really were.' Screenwriter Christina Hodson discusses how she and Margot Robbie came together for BirdsOfPrey
One of the advantages that a female screenwriter’s perspective can provide is illustrated by an endearing moment in“My sister did inspire the hair tie moment which, apparently, people seem to like on the Internet,” Hodson tells. “My sister and I always joke about the fact that women in superhero movies… are always going into battle or doing this big crazy epic thing with beautiful flowing hair perfectly quaffed, when both of us wouldn’t even consider eating a sandwich with our hair untied.
I think we really wanted to do something bold, fresh and different. Our goal from the beginning was to make this a standalone piece. While it’s a character that you’ve met before in another movie, it really is its own thing — its own movie. Generally, as an overall thing, regardless of costumes, we weren’t afraid of any of that, and Cathy did an awesome job of giving the character her own look for this movie that would feel distinctive.
Yeah, we did a whole bunch of research. When we first had that get together four and a half years ago, one of the first things we did was go to the studio and go to the DC Comics library and just take a huge stack of materials. Obviously, Margot had already done a lot of research on Harley Quinn, so I did a lot of that as well. So, for theBirds of Prey. For Harley, I love every iteration of Harley.
It was super fun writing the action bits, and yeah, one of my favorite things about writing action is all the specifics. I like getting involved in that kind of stuff. We had amazing stunt people; we were working with 87eleven. We actually had some really fun sessions where I got to do writing with them. I got to dream up stuff, and they’d try it out. Or, they’d pitch me things. It was just a really great collaborative process.
