What’s the Barbie movie about?

Margot Robbie is playing the lead role with Ryan Gosling playing her opposite, Ken. Other big names in the cast include Will Ferrell, Emma Mackey and Michael Cera.

The plot follows the manicured blonde doll as she leaves her brilliantly pink Barbie Land behind to join the real world.

Originally announced back in 2009, the film began development in 2014 and Robbie was later cast in 2019. The filming largely took place in England at Warner Bros. Studios Leavesden.
