The story of Harley Quinn’s meteoric rise in popularity is one unlike most comic book characters, partially because Harley did not start out as a comic book character. The Batman villain was originally created for Batman: The Animated Series by Bruce Timm and Paul Dini a year before being introduced into the world of DC comics. Now, her inclusion in some of the best superhero movies in recent memory (especially Margot Robbie’s portrayal) has led her to become one of the most widely beloved characters in superhero fiction.
We have not seen the last of the Clown Princess of Crime on the big screen as an upcoming DC movie – namely Joker: Folie à Deux from director Todd Phillips – is introducing a new iteration played by Academy Award winner Lady Gaga on October 11. We imagine there will be plenty more upcoming Batman movies starring Harley Quinn to look forward to. For now, let’s focus on all of her feature-length adventures so far and where you can find them.
The DCEU Suicide Squad Movies (2016-2021)
Amanda Waller (Academy Award winner Viola Davis) forces a group of incarcerated supervillains to do her dirty work in exchange for less time in prison.
Why it’s a good option for Harley Quinn fans: Oscar nominee Margot Robbie did not expect Harley Quinn to blow up when she made her first appearance in the role (also the character’s live-action, cinematic debut) in David Ayer’s Suicide Squad (which also counts as a live-action Batman movie) before reprising the role to even greater acclaim in James Gunn’s The Suicide Squad.

Injustice (2021)
When The Joker (Kevin Pollak) manipulates Superman (Justin Hartley) into murdering Lois Lane (Laura Bailey), Batman (Anson Mount) and his allies must band together to prevent his rampage from causing cataclysmic circumstances.
Why it’s a good option for Harley Quinn fans: Based on the popular video game of the same name, Injustice is an intense, action-packed thrill ride with a massive line-up of popular DC characters – including Harley Quinn, voiced by Community cast member Gillian Jacobs.

Scooby-Doo! And Batman: The Brave And The Bold (2018)

Why it’s a good option for Harley Quinn fans: A crossover spin-off of two of the best animated TV shows of all time, Scooby-Doo! and Batman: The Brave and the Bold features one of the more recent instances of Tara Strong voicing Harley Quinn.

Birds Of Prey (2020)
A freshly single and out of prison Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie) forms an unlikely alliance with a group of female vigilantes to take on ruthless crime lord Black Mask (Ewan McGregor) in Gotham City.
Why it’s a good option for Harley Quinn fans: Robbie’s Harley Quinn was so infectious that she inspired multiple spin-offs but the only one that has made it out of development hell so far is Birds of Prey: And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn, which sees the Clown Princess of Crime turning over a new leaf while still being her crazy self.

Batman: Assault On Arkham (2014)
As the Dark Knight (voiced by Kevin Conroy) tries to find a bomb planted by The Joker, a group of convicted criminals are forced to become heroes after The Riddler hides stolen, top-secret information somewhere in Arkham Asylum.
Why it’s a good option for Harley Quinn fans: While the title suggests it is an animated Batman movie, Batman: Assault on Arkham is really one of the best Suicide Squad movies yet, in my opinion, and marks Harley Quinn’s (Hynden Walch) first feature-length adventure with Task Force X.

Suicide Squad: Hell To Pay (2018)
A mostly new group of convicted criminals are forced into becoming heroes when Amanda Waller (Vanessa Williams) recruits them to find an artifact said to prevent the owner from damnation.
Why it’s a good option for Harley Quinn fans: Like The Suicide Squad, the animated Suicide Squad: Hell to Pay is a bigger, bloodier, and arguably better “sort of” sequel to its unofficial predecessor, Batman: Assault on Arkham, partially for the return of celebrated voice actor Tara Strong (also known for playing Batgirl) in the role of Harley Quinn.

The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part (2019)
Five years after the Duplo invaders took over, Emmet Brickowski (Chris Pratt) and his friends embark on another adventure in the LEGO Universe.
Why it’s a good option for Harley Quinn fans: The coincidentally named Margot Rubin (who actually voices several characters in The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part) makes a brief, but memorably funny, voice appearance in the sequel that clearly pays homage to Margot Robbie’s version of the character in Suicide Squad.

The LEGO Batman Movie (2017)
As Barbara Gordon (Rosario Dawson) takes over the GCPD, Joker (Zach Galifianakis) plans his ultimate revenge, and young Dick Grayson (Michael Cera) comes to live in Wayne Manor, Bruce Wayne (Will Arnett, one of the best Batman voice actors) takes on his worst enemy yet: his ego.
Why it’s a good option for Harley Quinn fans: The first time Harley Quinn shared the screen with Arnett’s Caped Crusader was when underrated former SNL star Jenny Slate voiced her in The LEGO Batman Movie, which offers a lighter, but still pretty one-sided, interpretation of her relationship with Mister J.

Batman Vs. Two-Face (2017)
Bruce Wayne (Adam West, in his final portrayal of Batman) and his young ward, Dick Grayson (original Robin actor Burt Ward), take on their old friend Harvey Dent (William Shatner), who suddenly shows signs of having a dangerous alternate personality.
Why it’s a good option for Harley Quinn fans: In the same year that The LEGO Batman Movie portrayed them as toy figurines, Batman vs. Two-Face (a sequel to 2016’s animated ‘60s era tribute, Batman: Return of the Caped Crusaders) hinted at the beginning of Dr. Harleen Quinzel’s (Sirena Irwin) toxic romance with the Joker (Jeff Bergman).

Batman And Harley Quinn (2017)
When Poison Ivy (Paget Brewster) and the Floronic Man (Kevin Michael Richardson) pose a global threat, Batman (Kevin Conroy) and Nightwing (Loren Lester) have no choice but to join forces with Ivy’s estranged friend, Harley Quinn (former Big Bang Theory cast member Melissa Rauch).
Why it’s a good option for Harley Quinn fans: In the same year that retro versions of the adversaries shared the screen in Batman vs. Two-Face, the Dark Knight and the Clown Princess of Crime headlined Batman and Harley Quinn – another lighthearted and comical take on some of the comic book medium’s most beloved characters from the creators of the DCAU.

Batman: Hush (2019)
As a new dangerous enemy emerges in Gotham City, Bruce Wayne (Jason O’Mara) is forced to confront devastating secrets from his past.
Why it’s a good option for Harley Quinn fans: Based on the acclaimed 2002 graphic novel by writer Jeph Loeb and illustrator Jim Lee, Batman: Hush – a DC animated movie that deserves a live-action update – sees Harley Quinn (again played by Hynden Walch) up to no good and at odds with Catwoman (Jennifer Morrison) in an epic (for lack of a better term) “cat fight.”

Justice League Dark: Apokolips War (2020)
After Darkseid achieves rule over the earth, resulting in the deaths of many of its greatest costumed vigilantes, former enemies suddenly become allies in the struggle to bring the tyrannical New God to justice.
Why it’s a good option for Harley Quinn fans: Hynden Walch voices Harley Quinn once again in Justice League Dark: Apokolips War, which serves as a finale to the DC Animated Movie Universe timeline and sees Harley promoted to Suicide Squad leader but still devoted to the Joker and seeking revenge for his death.

Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox (2013)
Barry Allen (Justin Chambers) wakes up in a world much different from his own and enlists the help of Thomas Wayne's Batman (Kevin McKidd) and other varying superhero iterations to fix the timeline and return home.
Why it’s a good option for Harley Quinn fans: Among the unique variants of classic DC characters Barry encounters in Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox (based on the comic that would later inspire 2023’s The Flash), there is an alternate version of Harley Quinn known as Yo-Yo (Hynden Walch), who gets apprehended by the Flashpoint version of Cyborg, voiced by Michael B. Jordan.

Batman Ninja (2018)
Bruce Wayne (Roger Craig Smith) and his allies are forced to rely on their most basic skills and learn new fighting styles when they and their fiercest foes are accidentally transported to feudal Japan.
Why it’s a good option for Harley Quinn fans: Outside of the familiar voice of Tara Strong in the English language version, Batman Ninja (which is not just inspired by anime but a genuine anime that incorporates DC elements) boasts an appropriately unique version of Harley Quinn in one of the most unique, visually intriguing, and underrated Batman movies on record.

Batman Vs. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2019)
A group of genetically mutated amphibians with pristine martial arts skills seek help from Bruce Wayne’s vigilante alter ego (Troy Baker, who also voices Joker) to help them return home when a trans-dimensional rift leaves them trapped in Gotham City.
Why it’s a good option for Harley Quinn fans: A team-up we never realized we needed came in the form of Batman vs. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (based on a similarly titled, popular limited series crossover event), in which Tara Strong also voices Harley Quinn in, probably, her strangest onscreen iteration yet: a mutated, anthropomorphic hyena.

BONUS: Notable TV Shows With Harley Quinn
As established, Harley Quinn’s existence began when Arleen Sorkin voiced her on one of the all-time best Batman TV shows, Batman: The Animated Series, in 1992. A decade later, she made her live-action debut, as played by Ferris Bueller’s Day Off cast member Mia Sara, on the short-lived WB drama, Birds of Prey, and eventually got her own hit, self-titled animated series (exclusive with a Max subscription) with Kaley Cuoco taking over the role in 2019. Most recently, a new version of her original self, Dr. Harleen Quinzel (voiced by Jamie Chung), appeared on Amazon Prime’s Batman: Caped Crusader.

One day, we hope that we can add the still unmade Gotham City Sirens movie (based on a comic that teams up Harley Quinn with Catwoman and Poison Ivy) to this list. Until then, there are more than enough adventures featuring the Clown Princess of Crime above to keep you occupied.
