Development

In May 2016, ahead of the release of Suicide Squad, Warner Bros. Pictures announced a spinoff film focusing
on Harley Quinn and several other female DC Comics heroes and villains, such as Batgirl and the Birds of
Prey. Margot Robbie was attached to reprise her role as Harley Quinn, and would also serve as producer.
British screenwriter Christina Hodson was announced to be writing the film in November.Robbie pitched the
film to Warner Bros. in 2015 as "an R-rated girl gang film including Harley, because I was like, 'Harley needs
friends.' Harley loves interacting with people, so don't ever make her do a standalone film". Robbie felt it was
important for the film to have a female director. While Warner Bros. and DC Films had various other Harley
Quinn-oriented films in development, Birds of Prey was the only one in which Robbie was directly involved
with its development.

Robbie spent three years working on Birds of Prey and continued to present it to Warner Bros. until the studio
felt the project was at the point it could be made. By April 2018, Warner Bros. and DC Films had finalized a deal
with Cathy Yan to direct, making her the first female Asian director to direct a superhero film. Robbie was
Pre-production

By July 2018, the film was entering pre-production. Robbie confirmed the film would be titled Birds of Prey, describing it as
"different" from the other DC films featuring Harley Quinn, and said it would be produced on a relatively small budget
compared to other superhero films. She also stated that Harley Quinn would receive a new costume, and teased the
casting of diverse actors. The line-up for the Birds of Prey team was revealed to include Black Canary, Huntress,
Cassandra Cain, and Renee Montoya, with the villain set to be a Batman adversary who had not yet been seen in film.
Casting began in August,with Warner Bros. considering a number of actresses to be cast as Huntress and Black Canary.
Alexandra Daddario, Jodie Comer, Blake Lively, and Vanessa Kirby expressed interest. Roman Sionis / Black Mask was
revealed to be the film's antagonist.Janelle Monáe, Gugu Mbatha-Raw and Jurnee Smollett-Bell were under consideration
for Black Canary by September, while Sofia Boutella, Margaret Qualley, Mary Elizabeth Winstead and Cristin Milioti were
being considered to play Huntress. Justina Machado and Roberta Colindrez tested for Renee Montoya, while Warner Bros.
began seeking a 12-year-old Asian actress to play Cassandra Cain.

In late September, Smollett-Bell and Winstead were respectively cast as Black Canary and Huntress, Warner Bros.
scheduled a February 7, 2020 release date,and Ewan McGregor and Sharlto Copley were under consideration for the role
of Black Mask. During the U.S.-China Entertainment Summit in October, Yan confirmed the cast and that the film would be
R-rated. She said that she "could not put the script down, it had so much dark humor to it which a lot of my work does, and
there are themes of female empowerment which are so strong and relateable". Cinematographer Matthew Libatique joined
the film that month, as did Rosie Perez as Renee Montoya. Stunt coordinator Jonathan Eusebio and fight coordinator Jon
Valera joined in November along with McGregor as Black Mask and Ella Jay Basco as Cassandra Cain. Robbie revealed
that the full title would be Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn),and that the subtitle
reflects the humorous and unserious tone of the film.Production designer K. K. Barrett joined in December,as did Chris
Messina as Victor Zsasz. Steven Williams, Derek Wilson, Dana Lee, François Chau, Matthew Willig, Robert Catrini, and Ali
Wong also joined the film's cast.
