Batman: The Animated Series creator Bruce Timm's new animated series, which was picked up by Amazon after it was rejected by Max, will premiere later this year. On Batman: Caped Crusader, Harley Quinn is Asian American and will be separated from the Joker, as Timm intended. “I co-created the character, so I have a lot of love and affection for her, but I thought there might be something interesting about bringing her on the show, just not as Joker’s girlfriend,” Timm tells EW. “So how do we do that? A big part was just doing a basic flip. The original Dr. Quinzel was a little bit more serious, and then when she became Harley, she got really goofy and weird. So we thought, what if we reverse that? When she's Dr. Quinzel, she's a little bit more whimsical and fun, and then when she's Harley Quinn, she's scary.”
