‘Harley Quinn’ Showrunners Address if DC Universe Show Will Get a Third Season

Article by Carl Bryan

Season 2 begins April 3

Beginning tomorrow, the critically-acclaimed Harley Quinn will make its way back to DC Universe. Featuring an ensemble cast of Kaley Cuoco, Lake Bell, Diedrich Bader, Tony Hale, Alan Tudyk, and more, the second batch of episodes is shaping up to be just as promising as the first season.

After all, the team behind the series is unsure of the show’s future, so they’re going all out for the show’s sophomore run. Speaking with ComicBook.com’s JK Schmidt, Harley Quinn writer Justin Halpern revealed that while he and the writer’s room have a general idea of where they’d like the show to go, they’ve yet to receive a season order from the higher-ups at WarnerMedia, especially with the launch of HBO Max looming large in the coming weeks.

Justin Halpern:

We’re in a position now where DC Universe is trying to figure out what it wants to do with the show. There’s been rumblings about expanding now that Warner Media has several arms. We’re exploring opportunities for other outlets but nothing’s confirmed.

That would almost suggest there’s at least been some chatter about Harley Quinn potentially jumping ship from DC Universe to HBO Max, a platform where a whole slate of new DC programming, including a live-action Green Lantern series.

As part of the, “Hey, look at us. We’re this little show that’s doing pretty well”, we have sent a one page… just not even a synopsis but more of a setup for what could be season three. So, we have thought about it but that’s not to say that it could change entirely once we get a writer’s room going, if we are lucky enough to get a third season pickup. It’s all to be determined.
