The Hollywood Reporter has announced that Christina Ricci will be starring in a brand-new podcast from Spotify and Warner Bros. alongside Billy Magnussen and Justin Hartley. Ricci will voice Harley Quinn, while Magnussen will voice The Joker and Hartley will voice Batman. Production is currently underway on the series.
The podcast series, titled Harley Quinn & The Joker: Sound Mind, will tell Harley’s story from her point of view, rather than the Joker’s. It begins with Quinn, still known as Dr. Harleen Quinzel, as she tries to help the patients at Arkham Asylum that the others have given up on helping. Her desire to help others, including her sick father, will see Dr. Quinn make questionable decisions for the sake of others – including building a relationship with a man known as ‘Patient J.’ Her decision to trust him will lead the duo down a dangerous path that will change their lives forever.
This marks the second audio series to be released through the multiyear licensing deal between Spotify and Warner Bros./DC, with Batman Unburied being the first. Batman Unburied, which stars Black Panther actor Winston Duke, has already been renewed for a second season.
Harley Quinn & The Joker: Sound Mind hails from Homecoming’s Eli Horowitz. As of this writing, no release date has been announced.
