Margot Robbie wanted Gal Gadot as Barbie

According to the actress and producer, the Wonder Woman star fit the “Barbie energy” perfectly.

At only 33 years old, Margot Robbie rose to the rank of the biggest stars on the planet, the culmination of which was the immense success of barbie this summer. Although in hindsight she seems to be the best actress to play the character, she initially considered another star for the role.

Margot Robbie is a producer of the film and has been looking to bring it to life for years. She first thought of Gal Gadot to get into the Mattel doll’s stiletto heels. In an interview for Entertainment Tonight, she describes Gal Gadot as “our dream Barbie”. Unfortunately a scheduling problem made collaboration impossible, which did not prevent Gadot to be “the Barbie energy barometer” according to the terms of Margot Robbie.

It took the intervention of Greta Gerwigthe director of the film, to convince Margot Robbie to accept the role. The filmmaker co-wrote the film with her partner Noah Baumbach by creating the tailor-made character for Robbie. In an interview for Flaunt Magazine, Gal Gadot expressed all his affection for the interpreter of barbie.

“I love Margot. Margot is one of those women you want to be friends with…so funny, warm, pleasant, intelligent and obviously very talented” she declares about her colleague. She said she was very flattered to have been considered for the role: “I would love to do something with Margot and I was very touched. She warmed my heart with everything she said about me.”
