Margot Robbie has snapped a picture of the script for Suicide Squad spin-off movie Birds Of Prey, revealing the officially confirmed revamped title for the project.

The new film will see Huntress, Black Canary and Harley Quinn join forces in a plot which will reportedly revolve around the trio saving the life of young Cassandra Cain from Gotham City crime lord, Black Mask.

In a new post on Margots Instagram, she posted a picture of the films script along with some token Harley lipstick.

Next to the films title, Margot added: Birds Of Prey (And The Fantabulous Emancipation Of One Harley Quinn).

While you might believe this is made-up hi-jinks, its been confirmed to The Hollywood Reporter this is actually the films official new title.

Mary Elizabeth Winstead, who will play Huntress, also spoke about how filming on the spin-off is set to kick off soon.

Speaking to Bionic Buzz, Mary said: It kind of follows Harley Quinn, which is Margot Robbies character from those films, and this sort of girl gang that she puts together.

I play Huntress, and weve got Black Canary, played by Jurnee Smollett-Bell, and Rosie Perez and Ewan McGregor. Its a really fun, fun cast.

She added: We havent started shooting yet, but we start shooting in January, and I cant wait.

McGregor is set to play the role of villain Black Mask, while Cathy Yan serves as a director on a script from Bumblebees Christina Hodson.

While expectations couldnt be lower following the dismal Suicide Squad, it seems like a promising way for DC to salvage some joy from the trash heap.
