no-one mentioned the flop that was the ghost busters reboot?
I am sure you people know, but this guy doing the interview is one of the best in the world... This is a big reason why you interviews are popular and enjoyable, he is just that good.
I remember how I used to have a crush on the joker when I was 11 lmao
@@lachimolalacaribonana965 soooooo ... last week, damn it must be hard to remember that
Lachimolala Caribonana Im still hardcore with joker, i dont care.
casting Margot Robbie for Harley Quinn was a stroke of genius. On par with Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool.
Hulk181fan imagine a crossover of the two
Hmm no wonder they both won the villain/hero superbowl by artspears
There is just certain people who were born to play these roles. Margot, Ryan, Huge Jackman for wolverine, Jensen Ackles for animated red hood/Jason Todd.. sooo many. You can tell there was some really good thinking that went into people who should play these characters 👌🏻
Yaaaasssss! Harley is like Soul sister of Deadpool. Love em!
@@IndirectTomb Yes.
she has perfect face for Harley Quinn, body gesture, just perfect.
glad to know her credentials are that shes hot 😂
sarah sandoval no if you were educated on Harley Quinn’s character then you would understand that her features and gestures are perfect for Harley
@@verynormalusername body gesture doesn't mean looks lol
sarah sandoval hell yeah
Not just hot she fits the bill sarah...if u have ever saw the animated series shes a perfect
It's funny how she talks about the 2000s 'Charlie's Angels' movie like the reboot didn't even happen.
Sairaj R. Kamath I was thinking the same thing! Wonder if she’s being shady
Because everybody is treating the new Charlie's Angel movie. Like a fart.. You know it happened, but you want to ignore it.
*maybe she lobbied to be in the reboot and didn't quite pan out?*
@@igot5onit423 this made me laugh more than it should have
Keep it ORIGINALL
I can’t be the only one who prefers Harley without the joker
I definitely prefer her without the Joker.
@@yoyosworld2773 you probably prefer peanut butter without jelly too...ohhhh no,you think harley was being abused, watch and read it all again...she's in control
Camryn Walton no you are i like her with the joker better
@Nershi LOL....tell that to her movie career which won't get a sequel and they are already putting rewrites in for suicide squad 2 to add the joker (just not sure which joker) but, ya...she is doing so great without him
@Arron Daniels joaquin's joker isn't in the dceu
She was literally the only great part about Suicide Squad so I'm really pumped about this
Now would you say your completely full of shit or just sometimes? Will smiths parts were good, the silly flashbacks of how they got caught were great too
@@martin..3700 Don't mix good and great dude. Deadshot was good but nothing more, flashbacks were fine at best. Plot was terrible. The good thing is we have the James Gunn one coming
@@stefangrubesic2708 margot Robbie wasn't great either she was good, nothin was great, til they give her a more OG comic accurate attire she's just not harley quinn like this birds of prey costume design is shit
The trailer looks underwhelming. I'm gonna wait till redlettermedia do a review
Martin O Neill He OG comic attire will look ridiculous on screen. It looks weird in the comics and cartoons, it will suck in the screen.
How can you not love Margot and Margot as Harley.
When we see how she and the idiot screenwriter she hired had fucked up Cassandra Cain
@@rayabeh8ni64 people on reddit confirmed our fears. They ruined Casdandra just to make Harley shine
@@thestranger9608 i know...and it's on Robbie and the screenwriter she hired cuz she's her best friend
@@thestranger9608 Imagine listening to reddit 😂😂😂
@@seezar100 normally i don't but multiple people have given similar descriptions. Keep in mind people have seen in the movie in Mexico,Spain and it opens in other european countries today
People should be asking, “Where’s Poison Ivy?” 😂
Man. I would love if a Poison Ivy to show up for Harley😂😂😂
Doja cat should play her
Hopefully in birds of prey 2 🙃
yesssss
This was the first thing I said after watching the trailer when it originally came out
Harley; “we’re bad guys, it’s what we do” Billie; “hold up.. did someone say bad guy?” dUh
STAN
Cringe 😂
Yall billies eyelashes just manage to drag billie in every damn lil thing....
I am the bald guy
@@shekharray9217 it was literally in the video i-
" we are bad guys that something we do " duhh. -bad guy billie eilish song came out of nowhere.
Lowkey that song’s been so played out it’s kind of dead rn
Ikr
You're right because Harley said it when Billie was about 12 and wasn't known
Was looking for this comment 😂
John Five Billie was 14
She's honestly the best Harley we could ever hope for.
I recommend watching the Harley Quinn animated series on DC Universe. Kaley Cuoco does a fantastic job.
@Will G bahahaha what? How does that make a lick of sense?
@@doc8013 Thats what he means kzhead.info/sun/pLyTfMt6bXiOjY0/bejne.html
Kat Dennings would have been better
@@thefalcon6685 of big bang theory??? Really!! I think I need to see or hear penny as harley
I'm glad that she wanted an all girl squad. Harley Quinn without the Joker is the best one. This movie looks good and the soundtrack is perfect for it, too.
I really hope you watch it, just saw it today and it was the best. I couldn't stop laughing :)
@@juani2012 I haven't seen it yet but I'll going this week.
I liked her more with her puddin... in Birds of prey there are to many "normal" people. There weren't any superheroes or villains. Just her. Harley. I mean the move was good... but it didn't seem like a fantasy world. And I missed her naughty kind
@Jesus Christ says the child with the originality of a grain of sand
@@juani2012 It flped. Get over it :)
Harley went from being the Joker's arm candy lost puppy girlfriend thing to being her own woman. True character development.
This guy is such a good host
It's Ali Plumb
In another video Margot said "I love you" to him. Now that is a recognition of a good host.
@@buskergirl which interview specifically, can i maybe get a link?
He is totally deficient in testosterone.
@@sainteagle4426 Can't do links because then my comment is not visible for some reason, but search for these videos: *"Have you ever heard anything like it?!": Margot Robbie on Domhnall Gleeson's armpit farts* - Margot says I love you at 1:16 *"I got real tingles!"

Chris Hemsworth on his Avengers Endgame "Fat Thor" spoiler* - Hemsworth loves him again at 3:28
Eversince Suicide Squad, Margot Robbie's Harley Quinn has been the most cosplayed female character ever.
Minbad She is the original Harley Quinn periodt.
@@levicregar109 they’re horrible, we’re talking about great
@@silviaplayz like Harlrey is any better?
@@levicregar109 Margot Robbie is the most perfect cast for Harley Quinn there can ever be.
She’s absolutely perfect to play Harley Quinn.
Love how Harley's laugh has rubbed off on Margot.
True
What time?
5:19
Harley was literally the only thing good about Suicide Squad. Facts.
Harley was meh, will smith was meh. Rest were shit.
Untrue, but it is the internet thing to say to show that you belong to the greater group opinion. Well done, you belong to the horde. However, I’m curious about whether it’s actually your opinion, or just parroting the masses.
@@tylerpeacock8245 loool yep, this is my opinion. Film sucked ass but Margot robbie was good at playing Harley as character. Have I proven myself in your eyes? ;)
She was great in the movie but I kinda prefer her in the comics
Will smith
Finally someone out trivia-ed Ali Plumb in his interview. Fantabulous!
“Why do people love Harley Quinn so much?” Obviously because Margot Robbie is literally the hottest actress alive.
because shes a charismatic character who is intelligent, capable, funny, and imperfect.
@@kyloarsenal4032 thats just what the 12 year olds think of her
well that's not my reason tbh i just love seeing people have that insane personality and i can really relate to her. but yea she is beautiful
Could not find a better chick
i know exactly why everyone loves harley: shes the girl we all want to be, the girl who is fearless and does whatever the fuck she wants and has the joker who she knows deep down, will always come for her, she shows that it possible to go from a lovely and responsible therapist, to a crazy wild person, and she is able to block everything out and focus on the positive things, harleys awsome!
I love the little shade she sorta threw at Leto: "Fans are gonna wanna see Harley and Joker. Nah, I want a girl gang film" It's like she was set on not working with Leto lmao
He gave her a box with a live snake in it. She showed a polite smile when she told that story but I bet she was not amused. It takes a special kind of asshole to mess with live animals for a 'prank'. The fact she made sure she had control over the first stand-alone Harley movie and purposely steered away from the Harley/Joker storyline, saying that's not what she was interested in seeing, is pretty telling to me. Might be that she doesn't like those two characters together regardless of who plays the Joker (their relationship is pretty damn toxic and abusive) but I've never heard her say anything positive about Leto that isn't just polite professionalism. Not having to work with him on this film is at the very least a bonus.
How did you get shade from that? She just wanted a badass chick film. Not everything is a diss at Leto.
@@popcultedits8683 Haters of Leto's Joker often project. I'm not sure that's what's happening here, but it happens. #releasetheayercut
@@elintilia2790 She seemed pretty complimentary about him on the Joker/Harley Blu-Ray featurette. And in an interview with Slash Film, she said "He’s really lovely, though. He’s very conscientious on set. He’s not completely lost in the character that he’s violent or anything. Between every take he asks if I’m okay." That, to me, sound more than just professionalism, but that she actually got along with him.
Huh now she can cry for her movie's AMAZING box office results 😂...WORST BOX OFFICE SINCE JONAH HEX !!!
Haha the way she made clear she meant the ORIGINAL Charlie’s angels and not the thing that came out recently 😂
Maureen Almudena and she didn’t mention the monstrosity that was the all female ghostbusters movie.
The taste jumps right out
She has great taste
That's not the original, the ORIGINAL Charlie's Angels is a TV show from the late 70's.
Justin Lang Exactly 😂 the Charlie’s Angel’s They’re talking about is the original movie not the original concept/ content which was the TV show!
She deserves an award for her amazing acting as Harley Quinn
The only show where a guest speaks for 2 minutes straight without getting interrupted, not even once. Then there are those jimmy shows ,Oh Man.
7:10 she has picked up harleys accent!!
This is the comment I was looking for. Glad I’m not the only one who noticed lol
dark green no shit, she has always had this “accent”. 💀
I noticed that!! I was scrolling looking for this comment
This isn't Harleys accent, this is her real life Australian accent..🤦🏻♀️
The people who are saying it’s no clearly didn’t hear that time stamp 😂😂 is so specific
Is it just me or when she said “yeah” a couple times she had Harley’s accent
Yes.
Yeah
6:04 Thank me later. She got that from studying Harley. Pretty creepy but amazing.
duh
Very noticeably added right?
No
Hi billie!👋
XD
I'm the 2020 like
She's the perfect Harley Quinn🤩
Does not help if the rest is BS
Nope
I thought that too.. she bom.com
Lol...no she isn't
@@johnfive2440 yes she is
Captain Jack sparrow & Harley Quinn together would be a fun movie!
amazing interview as usual. i loved the film so much! super fun 😭🥳 and the music choices in the bg, ali. AMAZING
Am I the only one who can hear her Harley coming out?
No.and its kinda cute
Margot is so bright and passionate about the material. Really imbues me with a lot of faith in the upcoming movie. Plus her talent is undeniable. Lovely interview, as ever, and thoroughly engaging.
Jonah Drake totally agree!!
I've never seen an actress like this, in love with what she does !!
Reviews are under embargo , it will bomb
Joker was down to bomb too......smile.
@@MrTrevisco it will bomb if it's liberal PC BS.
I love the fact that this turned into a cinema trivia competition real quick. I would actually like to hear a podcast just with Ali and Margot throwing facts at each other for a whole hour lol
This was such a great interview! Great questions by the interviewer and had an awesome flow. Seasoned!!
7:10 the way she slips back into harleys voice 😂
😍❤
So great 😍
Kmao heard and saw it lol
Actually think the most of people he interview enjoys talking to him, as Margot said at the end. He holds a conversation, not just asking questions everyone knows the answer to.
I get chills EVERY TIME I THINK about how this film got made. THIS IS A WOMEN WHO USED HER POWERS FOR GOOD!!!
You can tell Margot does her research and fully invests in her characters 😊
I'm happy that she understands her audience when it comes to Harley Quinn some actors don't take time to do that
I know right. I was like you will get my support forever.
"i would like there to be two [hyenas] but it was really expensive" there you go, guys
she's my inspiration to be an actress ugh✊🏻😩
First of all, she spoke so well about the movie, there was no moment my interest wavered Second, KEEP THAT INTERVIEWER! He keeps the flow going so well, and you can tell he knows and is interested in what he's speaking about! Great vibe!
1:04 Just appreciating "bad guy" by Billie Eillish playing in the back after Harley said it
Props to the editor. That was a surprise, but a welcome one :D
It's also the main song in the trailer for her movie Bombshell
The reason I disliked the video.
@@joi0001 love Billie but that damn song has been played into the ground 😑😑😑
@@Leaftcow i only dislike her music because her cringey fans. I was a fan of hers when she started. Now all her fans call other girls billie
i’m so happy that margot pitched this idea of a movie with a superhero gang with powerful women who support each other and look out for each other. so excited for birds of prey
and none of those girls could tell her Harley Quinns permanently Acme blonde hair shouldn't start growing 3 inch roots for the sake of it looking more edgy.
I'd prefer gotham city sirens considering how underused poison ivy is in the live action universe but I'll settle :(
People already spoiled the movie reddit it sounds nothing like that. False advertisement
Pitched the idea? Psh. Birds of prey is a common team if you read the comic books. It’s supposed to be the huntress, batgirl and black canary. Not Harley Quinn. They should of just followed the Amanda comics book and given her the stuffed beaver. That would of been better than this
@@trintrin3507 she's actually not a part of birds of prey, that's why the title has an and in it. Even many tv spots are referring to the movie as Harley Quinn and Birds of Prey.
Accent: Sexy Margot: Drop dead gorgeous
I love the guy interviewing her. First time I'm seeing him. He asks really good questions.
She talks about Charlie's Angels 2002 and pretty much ignored the 2019 film. LMAO
Her and the rest of the world
@@gretasstolendreams2154 LMAO !!!
Travis Walls glad you appreciate it my dood
Because she was talking about the time she was pitching the movie and back then there was no remake of Charlie’s angels.
@@gretasstolendreams2154 right? I def forgot about it.
I love that she named "The 100 year old who climbed out of the window and disappeared" was not expecting that but i'm a proud swede
i love how on some words she sounds like Harley Quinn especially her “yeah”s
I thank God everyday for making me live in the same time as Margot Robbie. She’s a pure goddess and a really talented one, facts.
Anyone really excited to watch this movie should watch The Harley Quinn, animated series. It’s amazing
agree. I haven't laughed so much in quite some time.
Same bane's voice is hilarious
Betty Georgieva probably the best version of the character
RP reviews & more it’s a homage and pisstake of Tom Hardys version. It’s hilarious 😂 Love King Sharks voice too
Will G cool story brah
keep doing it your amazing!!! i actually look forward to harley quinn movies
1:05 damn that one hella good transition
did she just do a genuine laugh and still sound like harley quinn....
Margot is the Queen sounds better
Yap ❤
Queen Elizabeth 💜💜
Margo has a big smile, thats why she got cast as harley Quinn
I love how much every celebrity honestly enjoys being with this guy, everyone seems so relaxed and to genuinely get on well, it's so wholesome and i just think it's neat
*We're bad guys it's what's we do* Billie: is it my cue? Producer: duh
I really enjoyed this interview. was really nice to hear the backstory from Margot - and not just a standard question and answer interview where you can tell they're pressed from time, and being grilled by different interviewers asking the same damn questions over and over. Really good interview. Thanks!
Great interview
She won my heart at "Captain" Jack Sparrow
This interview actually makes me reconsider not watching this movie bc I loved hearing about how much care she put into the character and the fact that she pushed for certain things that didn’t end up happening that I thought were inconsistencies (like Bud and Lou)
Honestly, watch it. Watch what she's trying to do with the character and not just copy/paste it from the comics.
Love the channel! Great sound quality, btw! 👍🏿
Great interview and interviewer!
so humble and classy, you just can't dislike Margot. I'm happy for her that she finally has the chance to make her visions a thing with this movie
I'm really looking forward to this
crazy to think she started in neighbours.
we stan Donna
Margot Robbie is living proof of the importance of following your dreams, no matter how cliched and "difficult" they may seem.
Fish Sparkles her “reveal” in wolf of Wall Street did help a lot
I started with her in Pan Am, loved that show
Is it crazy? Its always been Australias acting training grounds. Pretty Sure the Hemsworths started on it as well. Either that or Home n Away.
I love her so much the personality the style the way she can make you laugh and surprise you at the same time
"Captain" Jack Sparrow she said. She's the one.
There's moments where her natural accent turns into a Boston accent. Her characters are imprinting on her
Top burn, when she metioned the old Charlies Angel movie not the new one...actually make sense...I hope Birds of Prey smash the box office
M F H Khan NOPE
Didn't have much faith in the movie before but now seeing this interview I know it'll be great
Best Harley Quinn she just plays the character so perfect💙
She is so wholesome and passionate. The best Harley 💙
I love how passionate she is about playing Harley! So excited for birds of prey😁😁 gonna be awesome
She is my favorite actress now. She has been stealing scenes and charming hearts since The Wolf of Wall Street.
Margo is so Beautiful from her looks to her personality she is Amazing!
Can’t wait to see it on Friday 😍
He also gave me a snake 😂 him random silence 😂 6:59
5:45 haha that's gold!😂
Can't wait to watch it
Love you Robbie, you have such an amazing (gift), at acting. I like watching you take on such different roles through the years 👏. 🤗from Alaska.
Watching all the TV shows (early ones) reading her comics. I love Harleys love for animals how she holds her self and isn't afraid to be how she is.
I saw the film, is great! I love margot and harley and i think its amazing what shes doing with harley’s character❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
1:05 OMG that snaps 🔥 I didn't that coming
Its always so nice seeing this guy's interviews. He's name is Ali Plumb, right? I really really like his style and his voice is so soothing! My dude, if you are reading this: keep up the excellent work! 💕 Lots of love from Argentina 🇦🇷
7:07 her harley voice came out 😂❤️
April 7th 2020 Ah Memories
It's amazing how Margot also thinks that cosplayers will outshine her as Harley! She has a whole team of makeupartists and people who dress her. A cosplayer is often just one person, putting together an outfit in, sometimes, 2 weeks and they do their own makeup, or (if lucky) have someone to do their back.
Ticket bought for friday and saturday, love Margot the actress and trust her to have made a great Harley Quinn movie. Absolutly the spot on actress to play my fav comic caracter. Good interview btw 👍
IM SO EXCITED AAAH
Wait this interview actually sold me
It’s so crazy impressive to watch her acting in the movies, and then discover that she’s actually Australian. She does a better American accent than me and I live here
"we're bad guys that's what we do"....DUH! that was so cool.
Cant wait!!
She’s famous and iconic here in Philippines. I love you Margot...😘
its so crazy how you can see that Harley Quinn and Margot are totally different persons you barely can think that they are the same person
I always watch the BBC1 interviews because this guy is the best interviewer!
