Plot

It's a new film about Barbies, the famous dolls created by Ruth Handler in 1959 that had a huge success in the whole world and that have now been brought to the big screen more than thirty times, the most of the times in an animated way. The Barbie dolls have had all kind of professions and count with dozens of accesories.

In this case, unlike most existing movies, 'Barbie' shows dolls as real, flesh and blood people, rather than simply animated characters.. The character of Barbie will use her personal and professional skills to step into the lives of others and improve them, almost like a modern Mary Poppins.

The storyline supplied says like this: "A doll living in 'Barbieland' is expelled for not being perfect enough and sets off on an adventure in the real world".

The movie is directed by the young director Greta Gerwig, known for movies such as 'Nights and Weekends', 'Lady Bird' and the new cinematographic adaptation of 'Little Women'. The script is in charged of Gerwig herself and Noah Baumbach ('The Meyerowitz Stories (New and Selected)'). Olivia Milch wrote the first draft of the script. The actress who will play Barbie is Margot Robbie, known for movies such as 'Once Upon A Time In... Hollywood' and 'I, Tonya', among others.

Trivia

An invisible script

Diablo Cody admitted that she didn't have a script when she was involved. She was replaced by the writer Olivia Milch.

The font

The font used in the film is based on the font that was used for all Barbie dolls, products, and merchandise from 1975-1991.

Ken pride

According to Ryan Gosling, he accepted the role of Ken after seeing his daughter's Ken doll lying face down in the mud next to a squished lemon. He then took a shot of the doll and lemon and sent it to Greta Gerwig, saying, "I shall be your Ken, his story must be told."
