Inside Birds of Prey’s Superhero Sisterhood
has the women playing four very different characters who, in their own ways, are motivated to protect a young girl from Ewan McGregor’s villainous Black Mask. Robbie, of course, reprises Quinn, the gleefully maniacal shit stirrer struggling to find herself after splitting with the Joker. Winstead plays Huntress, a mysterious crossbow-wielding fighter seeking revenge.
Also rare and beautiful: a set where the women could show up, do their jobs, and not have to worry about fighting against gratuitous nude scenes, lingering camera shots that scan their bodies, and uncomfortably tiny clothing, all known trademarks of action movies filmed by the male gaze for the male gaze.
Smollett-Bell credits the general lack of objectification to having Yan and producer Sue Kroll at the helm with Robbie. “I realized, prior to this, how many projects I’ve been on where I’m the only woman on set and how alone I’ve felt,” she says. At this point in the conversation, I ask what each woman has learned from the others—and they all turn to Perez. “Why did you look at me?” she asks. “Because you’re just wise,” Smollett-Bell replies. “We all have girl crushes on you, in case you can’t tell.”
