The streaming service has teased fans with minor details about the series since 2018's New York Comic Con (NYCC – see below) and also included a few scenes in a recent DC Universe promo trailer.

Until now fans have had The Big Bang Theory's Kaley Cuoco leading the charge (and the series) over the past few months, taking to social media to give the people what they want: as much Harley news as possible. Recently, Cuoco took to social media to share a fresh look at Ms. Quinn to confirm three things: Harley still has "the crazy eyes," still understands the proper use of a baseball bat, and is still set to premiere Fall 2019:

Cuoco also executive produces DC Universe's Harley Quinn through her Yes, Norman Productions, serving alongside Justin Halpern, Patrick Schumacker, and Dean Lorey.
Speaking of Christopher Meloni…
In an interview with Bleeding Cool, the actor discussed his overall approach to voice acting and if it differs from his approach to live acting before briefly explaining what the Harley Quinn recording experience was like for him – and how it connects back to Meloni's work on 2014's FOX sitcom Surviving Jack:
