Beginning in 2019,Kaley Cuoco’s version ofHarley Quinnarrived at the now-defunct DC Universe streaming platform, but has since then taken on a life of its own, effectively establishing a viable DC Elseworld. Prior to 2023, the show had run for three seasons, with its fourth season ending its run in September 2023. As established in previous seasons,Harley Quinnis not intimidated by taking bold, wild steps and the trend continued in season 4 with theofficial creation of the Gotham City Sirens, the arrival of Harley and Poison Ivy’s (Lake Bell) daughter from the future, among others. The animated series wasrenewed for a fifth seasonon Max, two months after season 4 ended. However, not much was known regarding an exact release date for the upcoming season.
In what would come as exciting news for fans of the show, the wait will soon be over. Speaking in a conversation withThe Direct,Harley Quinnseries co-creatorDean Lorey, while discussing his upcomingKite Man: Hell Yeah!series, gave an exciting update regarding when fans might see Season 5. Lorey indicates that Harley Quiin will be back for more shenanigans before the year runs, while confirming that “Kite Man is not in Season 5,” but the spinoff series does offer a pointer to more fun adventures for Harley going forward.
Lorey’s comments read:
“I know it’s before the end of the year. I don’t remember the exact date yet. But I think it’s in the next few months. I know that.”
“Kite-Man is not in Season 5 of ‘Harley Quinn.’ He’s not… Look, he’s above it. He’s better… But I will say there are connections to ‘Harley Quinn’ Season 5 off of ‘Kite-Man’ Season 1. Kite-Man Season 1 leads into, in some interesting ways, ‘Harley’ Season 5.”
