Birds of Prey actress Rosie Perez, who played Renee Montoya, isn't too impressed by the "ageist" jokes made in the Worlds of DC movie.
Released earlier this year, the Harley Quinn spin-off blockbuster was a four-star success in Digital Spy's review, with whispers of a sequel inevitably floating around the grapevine.
During an interview with Uproxx, Perez shared her views on returning to this comic book universe, while pointing out one specific preference.

"I mean, if it happens, sure," she began. "When you said that, the first thing that came to my mind was, 'Oh my God, I have to lose weight and get in shape again.'
"Hopefully, there won't be any ageist type jokes in it as well. Having me called 'grandma'. That was the only thing, I was like 'Really, guys? really?' I was like, 'Would you have the nerve to say that to Helen Mirren, in her 50 million action movies?'"

"I have and I will be."
