Harley Quinn Almost Had Original Costume in Suicide Squad
Suicide Squad nearly had a very different looking Harley Quinn, actress Margot Robbie has revealed.
In an interview with Hello Giggles (via Coming Soon), the Suicide Squad star said "we tried on every variation of the costume. I cannot emphasize enough how many outfits, and how many variations of the Harley Quinn costume we tried."
"We tried the court jester costume, we tried the corset and skirt, we tried leather pants, we tried literally every type of costume possible for her," she said. "I really love where we ended up. And who knows, maybe in the sequels we’ll go with the court jester one. I think there’s a world of possibilities.”

"One of the other heads, I don't know if I'm going to get in trouble if I say this, was Johnny Depp," Nicotero told Entertainment Weekly. "I think we had sculpted an emaciated version of a dummy head for something and we used Johnny Depp's head as a basis just for a clay sculpt."
