The Australian actor, who plays Harley Quinn in the new DC Comics effort, has confirmed that the Thirty Seconds To Mars frontman will not be appearing in the new superhero flick full title: Birds Of Prey (And The Fantabulous Emancipation Of One Harley Quinn) despite the storyline beginning just after her break-up with theJoker.

According to Variety, Jareds incarnation of the villain doesnt appear, not even as a cameo, which of course contradicts alleged leaked set photos that seemed to show a scene of Harley and Joker possibly arguing and breakingup.

In a recent interview with Empire, meanwhile, Margot said that in Birds Of Prey, her character is now just trying to get on with things as a singleperson.

Shes trying to own it, she revealed. That felt like a real way to deal with a break-up. Its not clean and easy to be a strong woman. Its so hard. Shes a bit more Courtney Love than Debbie Harry this time. She says, Im single, I dont need him, fuck that guy. But if the Joker were to text her, You up? shed run. Shed fall topieces.

While Jared has seemingly no involvement here, last year the actor and musician began filming for Spider-Man spin-off film Morbius, in which he plays The Living Vampire a vampire who also happens to be a hero. It is scheduled to be released in the U.S. on July 31, 2020.
