The new Red Band trailer follows up the other recent Harley Quinn season 3 teaser with a little more detail regarding Harley and Ivy’s return to Gotham. After the villainous couple rode out into the sunset at the end of Harley Quinn season 2, it seems as though a lot has changed in DC’s arguably most dangerous city. However, rather than staying shocked at everything new, Ivy has a plan of her own to shake things up.

Right out of the gate, it’s extremely clear that Harley Quinn wants everyone to remember just how raunchy and violent it is. With Harley and Poison Ivy messily hitting a bird while flying Wonder Woman’s invisible jet, the blood is outdone only by the humor. The cute and toasty banter between Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy helps reinforce their long-built chaotic romance and should put at ease any fans who may have worried the show’s excellent writing and performances would suffer after its 2-year hiatus.
Rather than revealing more about this season’s premise, the Red Band trailer seems more focused on fleshing out the characters themselves, with everyone getting their expletive-filled time in the spotlight. This includes favorites like Harley and Ivy themselves, voiced once again by The Big Bang Theory’s Kaley Cuoco and What If…? star Lake Bell, respectively. Alan Tudyk also returns as Clayface and The Joker, the latter of whom appears to be running for mayor against Christopher Meloni’s Commissioner Jim Gordon.
There seems to be a lot of drama in store as well, which the show has never neglected in the past. Several characters comment on how much Harley has changed, including Ivy herself, telegraphing some potential trouble in paradise for the new power couple. However, the typical trend of Harley’s crew biting off more than they can chew appears to be in full force once again, with Ron Funches’ King Shark commenting, “How is an Ivy plan even more of a disaster than a Harley plan?!”
It looks like fans of Harley Quinn have plenty more of the same very much un-family-friendly fun that made the show one of DC’s most beloved entries in recent years. Here’s hoping season 3 helps crank up Harley Quinn’s surprisingly modest popularity and inspires plenty more to come in the future.
Harley Quinn season 3 premieres on July 28th, 2022, on HBO Max.
