Can you imagine any other actress as Barbie?
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Barbie features a huge star-studded cast led by Margot Robbie, but she was the third actor considered for the role during the movie's development, and there were many others considered for additional roles, too. Starring as the titular protagonist, Robbie seems like she was born to play Barbie given her physical appearance and instant likability.
9 Ben Platt Ben Platt was another actor mentioned by Allison Jones who was offered a Ken role. Platt has a background in musical theater, famously starring The Book of Mormon and Dear Evan Hansen on stage, so he would have been another great choice given that the Kens have a couple of tremendous musical moments. However, the actor similarly had to drop out due to scheduling conflicts.
6 Saoirse Ronan Greta Gerwig wanted two surprise cameos in Barbie that she was devastated she couldn't get. The first of these was Saoirse Ronan, whom the filmmaker had previously directed in both Lady Bird and Little Women. The two seemingly have a great working relationship, and Gerwig wanted to continue the collaborative spirit by having Ronan briefly appear in a "specialty cameo.
