If Battlestar Galactica and Riddick star Katee Sackhoff had her way, she'd be playing Harley Quinn in a Batman movie.

"I love Harley Quinn. I do," said Sackhoff, when asked by Esquire Magazine if there was a female superhero she'd love to play. "I just love it. (Harley's) like the female Joker."

Sackhoff is keenly aware that Harley Quinn has yet to make an appearance in a superhero blockbuster, so there's no legacy she'd have to live up to. "Who wouldn't want to do that? Quite potentially — it's not around so I wouldn't feel the weight of it — I'd probably sell my first born at this point to do that."Sackhoff has proven she can do badass with aplomb, but could she pull off the anarchic, unhinged Harley?
