Birds of Prey Cast In Empire Magazine

There is a brand new cast interview in the latest issue of Empire Magazine, which you can check out in the gallery.

In the interview, we get introduced to Mary’s character Huntress, AKA Helena Rosa Bertinelli. Mary also explained why she waited so long to step into the comic book world:

The final piece in the puzzle is the militant Huntress, dressed in fishnets, leather, and with braids in her hair. Born Helena Rosa Bertinelli, she is the daughter of a powerful mob boss. As a child, her family was murdered in front of her. She trains to become an assassin to avenge their deaths. Next on her list? Roman. Mary Elizabeth Winstead has always been reluctant to act in a comic-book franchise for fear of being oversexualised. “This was momentous,” she says of working with so many women. “It’s something that was denied to me for so long. It just wasn’t on the table.”

Margot, who is playing Harley Quinn and also producing the film, said that she’s having a hard time letting go of the characters and is already considering sequels or spin-off films for the other characters.

Birds of Prey hits theaters on February 7!
