3. Allison Williams

If there’s one actress who could perfectly embody Harley Quinn’s insane, chaotic, and unpredictable nature, it’s Allison Williams. The talented actress, known for her roles in critically acclaimed films such as Get Out and The Perfection, has the range and the skills to make Harley Quinn her own.

In Get Out, Williams played a seemingly innocent girlfriend who turned out to be part of a twisted plot to control and manipulate her boyfriend. This role proved Williams’ ability to switch from charming and likable to sinister and threatening in a heartbeat – a perfect fit for the duality of Harley Quinn’s character.

And in The Perfection, Williams played a troubled musician who takes her revenge to extreme and bloody lengths. This role showcased Williams’ ability to play a character who is both vulnerable and fierce, something that would be essential to portraying Harley Quinn.

Williams’ character in the horror movie M3GAN showed us how well she could play a character who is all about her work, unable to express her emotions, and struggling to connect with others. Her portrayal of Gemma, an independent workaholic woman who prioritizes her research over her family, could translate into a perfect portrayal of Harley Quinn’s obsession with the Joker and her constant struggle to find her place in the world.

Allison Williams has the talent, range, and versatility to bring Harley Quinn to life in a way that has never been seen before. She has proven time and time again that she can handle complex and challenging roles with ease, making her the perfect choice for the iconic role.
