The film that is not going to be what you expect. At the end of 2018, the news arrived that the actress Margot Robbie was in talks to star in the new movie about Barbie.
The movie about Mattel’s most famous doll is long overdue: in 2014 Sony acquired the rights to the Barbie company to prepare a movie about her. Initially the project had Amy Schumer , but she left the project due to, according to her, “scheduling problems.” Then Anne Hathaway entered , who finally also left. Director Alethea Jones and screenwriter Olivia Milch did the same.
The project changed hands: from Sony it went to Warner Bros, and finally the protagonist of ‘Birds of Prey’ was in charge of starring in the film. So among her numerous projects , there is the one to bring the doll to life. And she not only stars in the film. As usual in her career, she also produces with her production company, LuckyChap Entertainment , a company she runs with her husband Tom Ackerley and her best friend, Josey McNamara .
In a press release, via Harper’s Bazaar, Robbie said her new character is someone who promotes ” trust, curiosity and communication throughout childhood, and empowers children to imagine themselves in aspirational roles, from princess to president .” Although she couldn’t reveal the plot of Barbie, she said she was “so honored” to take on the role and ” produce a film that I think will have a tremendously positive impact on kids and audiences around the world .”
In an interview with Harper’s Bazaar for December 2018/January 2019, Robbie discussed the challenges and stereotypes she faced as an actress when she first stepped foot in the entertainment industry.
” When I was trying to make a name for myself as an actress, creative roles for women were limited ,” she told the magazine for the cover story. ” I didn’t want to pick another script where I was the wife or the girlfriend, just a catalyst for the male story. That wasn’t inspiring .”
‘Barbie’, Director
Greta Gerwig (‘Little Women,’ ‘Lady Bird’) will direct this film and co-write it with Noah Baumbach , her real-life partner and regular collaborator, as has been the case with ‘Frances Ha’ and ‘Mistress America’.
A live-action ‘Barbie’ movie sounds like another example of a movie studio grossly capitalizing on a recognizable piece of intellectual property. But according to producer Josey McNamara , ” You think you know what that movie is with Margot as Barbie, but Greta and Noah have subverted it, and we can’t wait to get into it .” Robbie chimed in later and said:
