SUICIDE SQUAD: Margot Robbie Talks Harley Quinn Manipulation and Her Dysfunctional Joker Relationship

Manipulative and dysfunctional are words that come to mind when it comes to Harley Quinn and the Joker in comics, in animated shows and now in this summer's SUICIDE SQUAD movie.

Actor Margot Robbie opened up to the LATimes and spoke about her role as the Joker's main squeeze who could actually be more insane than the Clown Prince because of her manipulative nature.

"She's definitely one of the more unpredictable members of the squad. She also used to be a psychiatrist so she has an extensive knowledge of mental illnesses and how to manipulate people — I'm sorry, well, she has a lot of knowledge on how to profile people, pick their triggers, and as Harley Quinn she kind of utilizes that to just manipulate people and mess with them. And she definitely does that with the squad. She's always picking someone to be dissecting and playing off and messing with."

And how about her relationship with the Joker?

"It's an incredibly dysfunctional relationship. She's mad about him — like, literally, mad. She's crazy. But she loves him. And it's a really unhealthy, dysfunctional relationship. But an addictive one."

SUICIDE SQUAD releases on August 5.
