DC Universe's hit animated series Harley Quinn will be added to HBO Max in the future. Harley Quinn is one of the few original programs available on DC Universe, which is the go-to streaming service for DC fans. Season 1 first premiered in November 2019 and just wrapped up in February of this year. However, in a testament to how successful the first season was, DC Universe sped up Harley Quinn season 2 and started rolling out episodes in April. The last episode of season 2 arrived this past Friday, and it set up a very exciting season 3. As of right now, however, DC Universe hasn't officially renewed Harley Quinn.
HBO Max launched back in May and boasted a large library of beloved content. Aside from favorites like Harry Potter and Game of Thrones, HBO Max also has a robust stable of DC shows and films. While there are notable examples of DC projects that are missing, HBO Max still contains those like Wonder Woman and Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. Additionally, HBO Max will be the home of the long-awaited Snyder Cut of Justice League, which is set to premiere in early 2021.
HBO Max is looking to expand its content library over the next few months, and now the service has revealed Harley Quinn will be joining its ranks. As noted by ComicBook.com, HBO Max recently sent out an email to subscribers sharing the news that Harley Quinn is on its way. The email did not provide a date for when subscribers can expect the show's arrival, but it did offer this brief synopsis: "Coming soon to your screens. Harley Quinn (voiced by Kaley Cuoco) is on a mission to prove herself as Gotham's criminal queenpin."
Harley Quinn will be the second DC Universe show to join HBO Max, following Doom Patrol. The second season of the quirky live-action series is streaming on both HBO Max and DC Universe. Doom Patrol and Harley Quinn are both among DC Universe's most successful shows, which is likely why HBO Max sought to include them both. This doesn't clarify DC Universe's position, though, as reports suggested the burgeoning service could be threatened by the arrival of HBO Max.
Harley Quinn's inclusion on HBO Max might also indicate DC Universe is planning on renewing the series for season 3. At the very least, it might be waiting to see how Harley Quinn performs on HBO Max before doing so, but considering the extremely warm reception to seasons 1 and 2, it seems unlikely that DC Universe won't keep this momentum going. Season 2 of Harley Quinn ended with Harley finally getting together with her best friend Poison Ivy, and fans are hopeful season 3 will allow for greater exploration of Harley and Ivy's relationship. An announcement might be just around the corner.
