    She'll be Black Canary in name only. This movie is about Harley Quinn

    They will be working with an actual movie budget though. Not like that cheap streaming service where the poor Starfire actress was given a costume party wig and bargain basement purple spandex dress, with the "orange skin" and glowing green eyes appearing only when she was using her powers.

    Black Canary costume is much more easy to pull off than Starfire anyway.

    I don't dare to hope but would not be against a pleasant surprise

    That 5 $ budget Titans get for Diops Starfire is an insult. And sad because Diop looks great and has bit of an facial similarity to 80ys Starfire.

    The only thing we really have to go on for what the movies are doing with Black Canary is that they seem to be leaning into the recent singer aspect.

    I second this and not just for the costume. The Starfire trailer showing her being experimented would look cooler with some comic book advanced machinary but instead we got random plastic tubes in a basic warehouse. It's very underwhelming.

    I wonder if she is even going to be an alien anymore. Wouldn't be surprised at this point if her origin was changed to being a prostitute that was experimented on to get powers.

    I think they've confirmed she's still an alien. We've seen some alien symbols in the teaser for her, I believe.

    Done with DC. Can't handle the constant whiplash! Time to go on a hiatus!

    She is confirmed, I'm just saying. It feels very much like they are avoiding the comic bookness of the franchise so far in the marketing.

    Sure but how long did that take to actually show up? Plus they seem to be hiding the transformations with quick cuts.

    Hopefully she will at least have the Canary Cry. If the CW can pull of halfway decent looking screaming characters like Black Canary 2, Black Siren, Silver Banshee, and Purity transferred to Reign
    they better wow me with a movie Black Canary's Canary Cry.

    What does DC care? They have made it clear numerous times, through editorial decisions in the comics (constantly retconning the things people did to make Dinah a solid, stand out character) and the complete disrespect she's been shown in the Arrowverse that they just don't care about the character.

    It doesn't really matter to me what ethnicity Dinah Drake is, but it gets a little embarassing when every comic book character with a "Black" codename ends up being played by a person of colour on the big screen. Seriously? I wonder when John Stewart ever appears in a Green Lantern movie, will he be re-branded as Black Lantern?

    Who is also technically Canary #3 (or 4 if you count Evelyn) .

    Y'know, whatever my misgivings, I don't think this movie can screw up Black Canary any more then Arrow did.
