didn’t party. Oscar winner Anne Hathaway revealed that she felt “lucky” that her “Barbie” film never got unboxed. “What’s so exciting about what Greta [Gerwig] and Margot [Robbie] and that phenomenal team [did] is they hit a bullseye,” Hathaway explained during an appearance on the “Happy Sad Confused” podcast Monday.“The bullseye caused the entire world to reach this level of ecstasy,” the “Devil Wears Prada” actress continued.

Anne Hathaway has shared her support for Margot Robbie‘s and Greta Gerwig‘s Barbie movie.Before Robbie’s and Gerwig’s take on Barbie, Hathaway was in 2017 attached to star in a Barbie movie with Australian filmmaker Alethea Jones attached to direct. Comedian Amy Schumer was first attached to star in the film but dropped out over “scheduling conflicts”.However, nothing would become of Jones’ and Hathaway’s project, leading to Greta Gerwig and Margot Robbie teaming up for this year’s Barbie.Speaking to Variety, Hathaway said of Robbie’s film: “What’s so exciting about what Greta and Margot and that phenomenal team [did] is they hit a bullseye.

Zack Sharf Digital News Director Anne Hathaway appeared on the latest “Happy Sad Confused” podcast and called it “lucky” that her iteration of the “Barbie” movie never got off the ground considering the phenomenon that Margot Robbie and Greta Gerwig’s “Barbie” became over the summer. Back in July 2017, Hathaway was announced as the star of Sony’s “Barbie” movie. Comedian Amy Schumer was originally cast, but Hathaway took over the role after Schumer departed.

Ryan Gosling and America Ferrera are the latest stars to weigh in the possibility of making a Barbie sequel.

As 2023 draws to a close, the Barbenheimer phenomenon still resounds as the year’s most important film event. Two highly anticipated blockbusters, poised in a head-to-head battle in the thick of summer movie season, from two of Hollywood’s premier directors; no wonder the double feature became so highly meme-able.

Margot Robbie revealed Tuesday that one of the producers for the film “Oppenheimer” once tried to convince her to push the release date of ‘Barbie” back. “One of your producers, Chuck Roven, called me, because we worked together on some other projects. And he was like, ‘I think you guys should move your date,’ ” Robbie, 33, told Cillian Murphy during their chat on Variety’s Actors on Actors.

Margot Robbie is revealing that “Barbenheimer” almost didn’t happen.

In addition to starring as the lead Barbie in the massive blockbuster “Barbie,” Margot Robbie is also a producer on the film. This meant, way before Greta Gerwig and Noah Baumbach were attached, Robbie was out there trying to find a home for this film, as well as trying to find the right storytellers to bring it to life.

Margot Robbie has said that she refused to move the release date for Barbie to make way for Oppenheimer at the cinema.In a new interview, Robbie was speaking to star of Oppenheimer Cillian Murphy about the success both films had over the summer.Barbie became the highest-grossing movie of the year worldwide, and the highest-grossing film ever by a female director while Oppenheimer broke multiple cinema records this summer including becoming the fourth highest-grossing IMAX release of all time internationally and the highest grossing film biopic of all time.Robbie asked Murphy if he thought “so many people were gonna watch a movie about the making of the atomic bomb” to which he laughed and replied: “Um…no! [Director] Christopher Nolan was always determined that it would be released in the summer as a big temple movie. That was always his plan.

Margot Robbie and Cillian Murphy — she the star of “Barbie,” he of “Oppenheimer” — have shared an experience, one unique in film history. On July 21, 2023, their two movies came out, and instead of cannibalizing one another during a time when box office receipts were sluggish, they actually boosted each other, creating the global phenomenon known as “Barbenheimer.” On paper, the two movies couldn’t be more different.

Zack Sharf Digital News Director Margot Robbie revealed to Cillian Murphy during a conversation for Variety’s “Actors on Actors,” presented by “AIR,” that she got a call from “Oppenheimer” producer Charles Roven in which he asked her to change the “Barbie” release date so that it wouldn’t open on the same day as Christopher Nolan’s atomic bomb epic. Roven also produced Nolan’s “Dark Knight” trilogy and worked with Robbie on James Gunn’s “The Suicide Squad.” “One of your producers, Chuck Roven, called me, because we worked together on some other projects,” Robbie said. “And he was like, ‘I think you guys should move your date.’ And I was like, ‘We’re not moving our date.

there may only be one “Barbie.”Margot Robbie, 33, doesn’t think there will be a sequel to the massive summer hit “Barbie.” “I think we put everything into this one,” Robbie recently told the Associated Press when asked about a potential follow-up. “We didn’t build it to be a trilogy or something.”“It was like, Greta [Gerwig] put everything into this movie, so I can’t imagine what would be next,” she added.“Barbie,” which also stars A-listers such as Ryan Gosling, Will Ferrell, Helen Mirren, and America Ferrera, follows the popular Mattel doll (Robbie) as she is forced to journey to the real world after she begins to “malfunction” by developing cellulite and experiencing death anxiety while living in the utopian Barbieland.“I’d say the biggest takeaway for me is that original films can still hit huge at the box office,” “The Wolf of Wall Street” star continued to the AP.

Margot Robbie has denied any chances of a potential Barbie sequel.Rumours of a Barbie sequel were first sparked when Robbie gave an interview to TIME, saying she’d been involved in conversations around a potential follow-up film. “It could go a million different directions from this point,” she said at the time.

In a year when Marvel movies are bombing, one that made a billion its first time out of the gate, and the theatrical business feels more vulnerable than ever, an outlier like “Barbie” really lifted the movie industry’s spirits this year. Both “Barbie” and “Oppenheimer” ruled the summer of 2023 (over blockbusters like “The Flash,” “Mission Impossible 7” and “The Little Mermaid”) and, of course, merged to make the theatrical phenomenon of #BarbieHeimmer.

Barbie is without a doubt the biggest movie of the year, and fans started asking for a sequel almost as soon as they walked out of theaters.
