Australian actress Margot Robbie, renowned for her captivating performances and versatile acting skills, is set to breathe life into Barbie in the doll’s first-ever live-action film. Robbie, an Academy Award-nominated actress, is not only taking on the role of Barbie but also co-producing the film under her production company, LuckyChap Entertainment. This dual role marks a significant step in Robbie’s already impressive career.
Robbie’s embodiment of Barbie promises to be a refreshing and progressive take on the iconic character. Known for her transformative performances, Robbie’s portrayal of Barbie is expected to challenge traditional narratives and present Barbie as a complex, relatable character.
In a statement, Robbie has mentioned her excitement at the prospect of portraying Barbie, who has inspired imaginations and encouraged discovery for over six decades. She acknowledges the positive impact and influence that Barbie has had on children worldwide, and she intends to honour that influence through her portrayal.
While the specifics of the film’s plot remain under wraps, the involvement of Greta Gerwig (director of critically acclaimed “Lady Bird” and “Little Women”) as a co-writer and potential director promises an insightful and dynamic story. Gerwig’s narrative style often explores women’s roles within societal and familial contexts, and it will be intriguing to see how she incorporates these themes within the Barbie universe.
