The film about the most famous doll in the world did not have an easy path from idea to realization, because the work started in 2014. In the meantime, potential authors changed, as well as actresses in the leading role.
Originally, the script was written by Jenny Bicks, who we remember from the hit "Sex and the City", then the task was given to Diablo Cody, and finally, the project was put on hold.
Amy Schumer and Anne Hathaway were considered for the main role, and then there was a reversal, so the existing text was rejected because it did not fit into the new idea. The leading role was given to Margot Robbie, who in one interview promised a lot of interesting costumes and a nostalgic undertone. She added that the theme is such that it offers different approaches and that viewers will be pleasantly surprised by the material, behind which stands Oscar winner Greta Gerwig.
This is the director's third independent film, after the success with "Lady Bird" and "Little Women". She co-wrote the screenplay with her husband Noah Baumbach. We will see Ryan Gosling in the role of Ken. The actor initially turned down this role due to a tight schedule, but the production was persistent and determined that he was their only choice.
A short synopsis reveals the backbone of the plot - Barbie is excluded from the world of imagination, because she does not meet the imposed standards of appearance, so she has to try her luck in the real world. Warner Bros. Studio Pictures today released the first photo of Margot Robbie as Barbie and the date of the world premiere of the film - July 21, 2023.
In addition to Margot and Gosling, the film also stars America Ferrara, Simu Liu, Kate McKinnon, Michael Cera, Will Ferrell, and Ariana Greenblatt. We can't wait to see what did they prepare for us!
