Margot Robbie's Harley Quinn is not the only Suicide Squad member to get a solo movie. The Hollywood Reporter learns that Warner Brothers is also developing a spin-off focusing on Deadshot, the assassin played by Will Smith in DC Extended Universe.

When "Suicide Squad" was released earlier this year, it was met with mixed reviews but Harley Quinn and Deadshot got relatively positive reviews. While the Deadshot movie hasn't locked a director, David Ayer is set to return for the upcoming "Gotham City Sirens".

Robbie is expected to reprise her role as the pigtailed baseball bat-wielding antihero. It's still unclear who will join her in the female-centric film, but Ayer sparks rumors about Poison Ivy and Catwoman by posting on Twitter an artwork with hashtag "sirens4ever".
