Noah Baumbach, who wrote Barbie with his partner, Greta Gerwig, reveals that he originally wasn’t sold on the idea of penning the hit Mattel adaption.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Barbie co-writer Noah Baumbach reveals that he originally didn't want to work on the movie at all. Directed and co-written by Greta Gerwig, the Mattel adaption has been a big hit, pulling in over $1.441 billion worldwide. Barbie stars Margot Robbie in the title role, chronicling the character's journey from Barbie Land to the real world, with critics praising the film's surprising emotional resonance and deep themes.
“The reason you make anything is because you’re saying to this imaginary audience, ‘Maybe you feel this way too?’.So, when the whole world seems to feel that way, then that’s very gratifying and very moving. Because sometimes people are like, ‘No we don’t recognize that feeling.’” “It was Barbie waking up in her Dreamhouse and coming out to her backyard and meeting somebody who was sick and dying. I read these pages and I thought, ‘I understand now what this is.’ … The movie is about embracing your mortality and about the mess of it all, so it was exciting.”
