“Harley Quinn ss 4”: release date, announcement
The continuation of the animated TV series “Harley Quinn” has not yet been officially announced, but the success of the released seasons says one thing: the creators are unlikely to close this project. After analyzing the release dates of the 2nd and 3rd seasons, it can be assumed that the premiere of the fourth one may take place approximately in the summer of 2023. We continue to follow the news.
Plot
What does a woman need to be happy? At first, enough attention. Harley for a long time was content with the role that her lover assigned to her, but over time, feelings gave way to cold reason. Trying not to see the Joker’s contemptuous attitude towards herself, Harley turned a blind eye to many of his misdeeds.
The Joker sent Harley to the most difficult combat missions. He did not care about her death, he praised her talent to kill, but did not know what pity was. After another hit in prison, where Harley was waiting for her lover for a year, she finally managed to break free. And it was not at all the one whom she thought about all these days that helped her.
In the end, life brought her together with Ivy, nicknamed “Poison Ivy”. She endlessly tried to instill in Harley’s mind the idea that the Joker was not worth it. Not only does he mercilessly throw her into battles with Batman, he also revels in her next loss. Deciding to look at his beloved again, Harley goes to his bar. Realizing that Poison Ivy is right, she smashes the establishment to smithereens.
After that, her main goal becomes the destruction of the whole city, and by the end of the 1st season, she successfully copes with this. Gotham is wiped off the Earth, and in its place are ruins ruled by villains. Sitting without electricity with her associates, Harley realizes that this is not the future she wanted for herself and her friends. Once again, Poison Ivy comes to the rescue.
Ivy tries to explain to her friend that the destruction of the whole city will only lead to even more chaos, in which it will be difficult for even supervillains to live. For a long time trying to resist the words of Ivy, Harley is still forced to take her side.
In the season 2, the girls understand how dear to each other and in the final episode they confess their love to each other. But the season 3 was able to surprise for real! The amazing storyline allowed viewers to look at Harley in a different way. Quinn will stop at nothing to destroy her nemesis, and even more arguments with Ivy won’t be able to stop her…
