Harley Quinn showrunners have vowed that Harley and Poison Ivy “will never break up” as long as they’re in charge of the HBO Max series.
Patrick Schumacker, showrunner on the animated show, explained during an interview with AV Club that the series won’t feature a Harley and the Joker romance, despite some whines from fans. Instead, Schumacker said the focus was all on the notorious villain’s relation with Poison Ivy.
“We still have the occasional fan reaction of ‘I don’t like Harley and Ivy together. She should get back with the Joker’, which we’re never going to do,” Schumacher said.
“Harley and Ivy will never break up in the series as long as we have a say. That’s something that we never want to touch again.”
