Juan Diego Botto said that as a man, he enjoyed being objectified as a sex object in the film because it is a necessary role-reversal from women always being subject to sexualization in these kind of movies (for example, Harley Quinn in the first movie.) Botto plays charismatic dictator Silvio Luna who as part of his seduction of Harley Quinn, emerges wet and dripping from a bath tub, almost naked except for tiny revealing speedos, his rippling six pack abs and shredded physique on complete display - the camera lingering at length on his gleaming muscles. He said of the scene, "I've never been that guy who comes off the beach and feels like James Bond (referring to Daniel Craig's own infamous speedo shot in Casino Royale (2006)). When they told me - You come out of a huge bathtub in tiny speedos and Harley Quinn ogles you! I told myself - Okay, Fine. I'm going to walk out that bathtub and make Margot Robbie stare at me in lust. Once you give up shame things start to get fun. Beyond my personal experience, which is that I felt shameless doing that scene, I think that it is a great role reversal. It is always the woman in a sexy gown or a bikini who is being objectified. Even when she's the protagonist. You usually see male superheroes in boots, tights, capes, their bodies covered. And the woman is in a mini-skirt, even female superheroes. Our daughters ask us - 'Why? It is degrading'. So I like the role-reversal that works really well in the film."
