Harley Quinn has taken quite the journey from sidekick to survivor over the years, and soon Robbie will be passing the live-action torch to Lady Gaga for the upcoming “Joker: Folie à Deux.” Once upon a time, however, she was just a young woman in a lot of white face paint and some rather questionable costume choices. When asked what it was like trying to film in full makeup during the rain scenes in “Suicide Squad,” Robbie recalled:

“Yeah. Not just the makeup, but the wig, the costume. It’s obviously not the most comfortable getup. And we’re doing a lot of fight scenes and stuff. Actually, the worst thing were the gold bangles. They had spikes on them, and I’d always stab myself. I hated them.”

Every goth or former goth who has ever worn spiked bracelets knows her pain, and the ones she wears in “Suicide Squad” are exceptionally pointy. Just wearing those things can be hazardous, let alone swinging a bat or doing various acrobatics with them on. Thankfully, that isn’t the only costume Robbie has worn as Harley Quinn, which gives fans some less dangerous and more comfortable cosplay options.
