Margot Robbie Just Did a Complete 180 And We Don't Know What to Believe

Margot Robbie is Harley Quinn. Harley Quinn is Margot Robbie. In just a couple movies, the two have become synonymous and then Margot drops a bombshell: She needs a break from Harley. Or does she?

So, just about a week ago, Margot Robbie said she needed a break from Harley Quinn. The media was all over it, and so were we. Now, Margot did a complete 180 and, honestly, it makes her feel even more like Harley Quinn: I love my puddin, I don't love my puddin, I hate him, I wanna kill him, I wanna be with him, I don't... which is it Margot?

Margot Robbie Is Determined to Play Harley Quinn Again...

... after she was determined that she needed a break. Do we feel studio pressure here? A certain amount of movies she signed up to that she forgot about? A candid moment in an interview that was a no-no? Or did she really just change her mind, got her words misinterpreted or twisted by the media? It can't be the latter. Media outlets would never do that.

No, I've had enough of a break. I'm ready to do her again," Robbie said. "I did Birds of Prey and The Suicide Squad back-to-back, so that was a lot of Harley all in a one-year period, but that was a while ago now. I'm always ready for more Harley!

That's the quote. Make of it what you will and read on to see what I make of it:

How weird is it, that we all lose our sh*t when actors want to no longer portray comic-book characters? With all these long-running comic cinematic universes, we're bound to run into a problem. Thor ain't aging in the comics, but Chris Hemsworth sure is (like fine wine, I might add). Robert already called it quits, and Chris Evans said bye-bye. I don't wanna lose Margot any more than you do, but we can't expect actors to dedicate decades of their career to a single character only. We gotta be able to let go.

We also gotta be able to fill 400 words with a simple Margot Robbie quote. Which I just did. Yeah, touch me.
