James Gunn Talks Harley Quinn and Rick Flag’s Dynamic in ‘The Suicide Squad’

Margot Robbie Harley Quinn and Joel Kinnaman’s Rick Flag are some of the characters carrying over from 2016’s David Ayer’s Suicide Squad to James Gunn’s The Suicide Squad. It’s an interesting dynamic – one an unpredictable criminal and the other, a law-abiding colonel.

How has the two characters’ relationship changed since the first movie, now that they’re working together again? Director James Gunn explains:

“[Harley] likes most of the Suicide Squad numbers, but she sort of hates Rick Flag because he’s the opposite of what she thinks is cool. She likes weirdos. She comes into the situation and she thinks Weasel is great because he’s just this oddball character. And she thinks of Rick Flag as this uptight military man. This is not something that’s a central focus of the film, but it is something that’s there in the peripheral stuff. And so their relationship is something important and there’s a move throughout the movie of how they relate to each other and how they think of each other and specifically how Harley thinks of Rick.”
