Amy Schumer Opens Up About ‘Barbie’ Creative Split: Studio ‘Didn’t Want to Do It the Way I Wanted’

She wanted to do one thing, they wanted Barbie to invent shoes made out of Jell-O.
They also sent her some expensive high heels and that pissed her off for some reason.

The cast of Greta Gerwig's "Barbie" continues to grow! On March 18, Variety reported that "Tick, Tick... Boom!" star Alexandra Shipp is the newest actress to board the project. The news comes weeks after The Hollywood Reporter announced that Kate McKinnon is in talks to join the movie. No other details about either of their characters have been revealed.

Variety also confirmed in February that Simu Liu and America Ferrera had signed on to star alongside Ryan Gosling and Margot Robbie in the upcoming Warner Bros. and Mattel film. Both Liu and Ferrera's roles are also under wraps.

Back in October, the publication reported that Gosling was in talks to play Ken, while Robbie was set to take on the role of the iconic Barbie doll. Robbie is also producing the movie under her LuckyChap Entertainment company.

Margot Robbie's 'Barbie' Casts 'And Just Like That' Actor Hari Nef - Variety

Actor Hari Nef is pulling up to the Malibu dream house, landing a role in the feature film adaptation of “Barbie.”

Directed by Greta Gerwig and starring Margot Robbie as the iconic doll, Nef joins a steep bench of supporting players, including Ryan Gosling, Kate McKinnon, America Ferrera, Simu Liu and Will Ferrell.

Nef is a trailblazing, out trans performer who began as a fashion darling, going on to breakout roles in “Assassination Nation,” “Transparent” and the streaming adaption of Caroline Kepnes’ novels “You.”

Her role is under wraps in the Warner Bros. feature, written by Gerwig and her partner Noah Baumbach. Mattel and Robbie’s LuckyChap Entertainment are producers. Nef is represented by Gersh, Untitled Entertainment, IMG Models and Shelter PR.





In a 2021 interview with British Vogue, Robbie said that taking on Barbie “comes with a lot of baggage … and a lot of nostalgic connections. But with that comes a lot of exciting ways to attack it. People generally hear ‘Barbie’ and think, ‘I know what that movie is going to be,’ and then they hear that Greta Gerwig is writing and directing it, and they’re like, ‘Oh, well, maybe I don’t.’”

Production began earlier this year in London, with a planned 2023 release. “Barbie” is one of many Mattel properties on the burner for feature adaptation. Projects based on the Magic 8 Ball, Hot Wheels, “Master of the Universe,” Polly Pocket, Rock ‘Em Sock ‘Em Robots and the throwback dolls Chatty Kathy and Besty Wetsy are all in production or development.

20 Movies About Time Travel Ranked Worst To Best

Are you starring in "Barbie," Warner Bros.' and Greta Gerwig's upcoming live-action movie based on Mattel's world-famous doll line and multimedia franchise? Well you are now!
But seriously, folks, it seems like half of Hollywood has signed on to star in either "Barbie," Christopher Nolan's "Oppenheimer," or Denis Villeneuve's "Dune" sequel since 2022 began (with the other half starring in the latest Marvel or DC project, if not more than one of those things at once). Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling are leading the charge in Gerwig's film as Barbie and Ken, with the "Lady Bird" and "Little Women" director calling the shots from a script she co-wrote with Noah Baumbach. Also onboard are (*deep breath*) America Ferrara, Kate McKinnon, Simu Liu, Ariana Greenblatt, Emma Mackey, Alexandra Shipp, Issa Rae, Michael Cera, Hari Nef, and Will Ferrell.
As if all that wasn't enough, Deadline is now reporting that Kingsley Ben-Adir, Rhea Perlman, Ncuti Gatwa, Emerald Fennell, Sharon Rooney, Scott Evans, Ana Cruz Kayne, Connor Swindells, Ritu Arya, and Jamie Demetriou have also boarded Gerwig's "Barbie" movie. I would say the film is surely done casting by this point, but I'm still not entirely convinced that I'm not in this movie, too.
It's a Barbie world and we're all Barbie girls living in it

Whatever Gerwig's reasons for including so many people in "Barbie," there's no denying she's put together quite the talented cast. Ben-Adir, for example, is coming off a terrific performance as Malcolm X in "One Night in Miami" after doing fine work on shows like "The OA," "Peaky Blinders," and "High Fidelity." Elsewhere, Perlman recently made a welcome return to the small screen with "The Bad Batch," the animated "Star Wars: The Clone Wars" sequel series in which the "Cheers" star voices the deliciously savvy Trandoshan bar owner, Cid.
Beyond that, "Barbie" has now gained a pair of "Sex Education" costars in Swindells and Gatwa, along with "My Mad Fat Diary" alum Rooney, "Grace and Frankie" veteran Evans, "Umbrella Academy" star Arya, "The Afterparty" and "Miracle Workers" actor Demetriou, and Gerwig's own "Little Women" actor Kayne. And let's not forget Fennell, who's coming off a role on 'The Crown" and taking home an Oscar for writing "Promising Young Woman" (a film she also produced and directed for Robbie's LuckyChap Entertainment).
Credit where credit is due: As much of a Mad Libs-style mashup as the "Barbie" cast reads on paper, it's also fairly inclusive when it comes to race and gender. ("Oppenheimer" far less so but, yeah, I get it: A lot of white guys did important stuff in WWII.) Honestly, my interest was already piqued when Gerwig boarded the project, so all this does is make "Barbie" even more of a must-see for me than it already was.
"Barbie" is expected to reach theaters in 2023.
