Harley Quinn is getting her own movie with the upcoming Birds of Prey, and it’s arriving alongside an all-female soundtrack jam-packed with artists like Doja Cat, who just dropped “Boss Bitch.”
Written alongside Ashnikko, Sky Adams, and Imad Royal, the song title is pure hook on the chorus:
Beneath the throbbing bass, Doja Cat flexes in the face of her haters:
The ass-kicking visual splices clips from the film with shots of the memeworthy rapper firing off bazookas and partying in the club.

Oscar-nominated star Margot Robbie won over the audience in 2016's Suicide Squad as Harley Quinn. However, she couldn't lure in moviegoers to buy a ticket to Birds of Prey. The Oscar-nominated actress reprised the DC character for the second time in DCEU and audiences did not seem interested in watching Harley Quinn back in action. Birds of Prey minted $33 million in North America, which is one of the worst openings a DC movie has ever seen in the US.
After the commercial successes of “Wonder Woman,” “Aquaman” and “Joker,” Warner Bros. had been on a hot streak with its DC Universe. Its latest comic-book offering, “Birds of Prey,” seemed to have all the ingredients necessary to continue that trend in the studio’s attempt to fashion an alternative to Disney’s Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Warner Bros.’ comic-book adaptation “Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn)” got off to a soft start at the international box office, generating $48 million when it debuted in 78 foreign markets.
“Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn)” flew much lower than expected in its debut, collecting just $33.25 million from 4,236 U.S. theaters.
“Birds of Prey (And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn)” is nothing if not a thrilling ride. Newly single after The Joker dumped her, Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie) sets out on her own to find a new identity, rather than forever be seen as someone’s girlfriend.
The much-hyped soundtrack for the Birds of Prey film just hit streaming services. The all-female tracklist includes the previously released cuts, “Boss Bitch,” “Diamonds,” and “Sway With Me.” Cathy Yan’s Harley Quinn-focused entry in the extended DC universe follows 2016’s Suicide Squad.
Margot Robbie’s “Birds of Prey” flew to $4 million on Thursday night.
If we go through all the DC comic book characters, Harley Quinn is hands down one of the quirkiest of them all. Quinn is famous for being unpredictable and unconventional and that’s exactly what made Margot Robbie fall in love with the anti-hero.
Margot Robbie is on top baseball-bat swinging form in one of the best DCEU movies for quite some time.
The more DC and Warner Bros moves away from their original idea for a shared comic book universe (seen at its nadir by Suicide Squad), the better off they seem. This week, they release Birds of Prey (officially known as Birds of Prey: And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn), a brash and undeniably fun flick that indulges in chaos, girl power, and pure pop silliness.
When you’re a production designer, and your mood board is the mental state of the film’s lead character, it seems like the creative world is your oyster. When the lead character is Margot Robbie’s Harley Quinn, that’s a creative world where all bets are off.
It had been a great January for international movie lovers in India. Several movies released this month.
Between Joaquin Phoenix’s Joker hitting the big screens in December and Margot Robbie starrer Bird of Prey releasing in February, fans were desperately hoping to see the two iconic anti-heroes, Joker and Harley Quinn, together. Considering the two share an epic romance in the DC comic books, the fans wanted to see the two characters sharing the same screen space in Robbie’s upcoming film.
