Birds of Prey World Premiere Highlights

Take a look at the action from the 'yellow' carpet at the World Premiere of Birds of Prey, with its fantabulous cast and crew flocking to meet fans in London.

London hosted the World Premiere of Cathy Yan's Birds of Prey: And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn at the BFI IMAX cinema in Waterloo. 

In true Harley Quinn fashion, the conventional red carpet was given a fantabulous makeover, with a bright yellow runway, neon lights and epic character posters. Margot Robbie, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Jurnee Smollett-Bell, Rosie Perez, Chris Messina and Ella Jay Basco all braved the cold to meet fans and celebrate the release of their much anticipated film!

Mary Elizabeth explained that through playing Huntress she "got to be really aggressive and violent, not polite or apologetic... and really kind of messy and grimy. I got to be all the things I never get to be in real life."
