Margot Robbie and Colin Farrell "never spoke" about their DC connection

While Margot Robbie and Colin Farrell will soon be seen sharing the big screen together in A Big Bold Beautiful Journey, they also have another thing in common: their DC characters.

Surprisingly, they revealed to Entertainment Weekly that they never discussed the connection. "I don't think it came up once," Farrell shared. "No, we never mentioned, never spoke about it at all."

"We've done so much talking, and I don't think we've ever [discussed that]," Robbie added. "That's so weird." What makes it even crazier is that despite the fact that their characters "exist in so many different universes and multiverses," as Farrell put it, Robbie reveals there was actually a plan tied to her 2020 movie, Birds of Prey and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn.

"The first draft that Christina [Hodson] wrote of Birds of Prey, the villain was the Penguin," Robbie explained, which shocked her co-star, "No way! Really?"

"And then [director/writer] Matt Reeves said, 'Don't use the Penguin. I'm going to use him in my thing,'" she continued. "And so we swapped it to Black Mask [played by Ewan McGregor]."
