Just over three years ago, Jurnee Smollett was cast as Dinah Lance / Black Canary in Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn), marking the character’s biggest foray yet onto the big screen. It’s safe to say that Smollett left her stamp on the iconic DC Comics character, with news arriving last month that she plans to reprise her role in a Black Canary solo film, which is currently in development for HBO Max. This week, Smollett’s take on the character received another honor — being part of a clue on Jeopardy!. On the Tuesday, September 28th episode of the hit syndicated game show, Smollett’s take on Black Canary was referenced in a clue about Birds of Prey, with the answer being “Who is Harley Quinn?”. On Wednesday, Smollett took to Instagram to react to the mention, in a post that you can check out below.
