Margot Robbie had intense argument with Mattel’s CEO over scenes from ‘Barbie’

The actress who plays Barbie, Margot Robbie, revealed that she along with Greta Gerwig had an intense argument with Mattel’s CEO over several “out of context” scenes in the new Barbie movie. “There was no nuance“.

‘Barbie’ star Margot Robbie argued with Mattel president and CEO Richard Dickson over a specific scene that both the actress and her screenwriter and director, Gerwig, felt was out of place.

The live action, which is set for release on July 21st, has caused all its fans to be eager to see what has been billed as the blockbuster of the year, but one scene, which hasn’t yet to be commented on, forced Mattel’s CEO to rush to the filming sets in London to argue strongly with Robbie and Gerwig.

Margot Robbie, 32 years old, told ‘Time‘ magazine, how it was that she convinced Richard to drop the scenes within the film. “When you look at it in the script, the nuances can’t be seen, they’re not there, the performance is not perceived there“, Robbie said, referring to Richard’s decision to allow only one Barbie to appear, the main one.

Both Robbie and Gerwig, revealed that if the decision to not include more Barbies within the film changed, they would not have worked for the film, “If Mattel hadn’t allowed to make that change so that we had a multiplicity of Barbies, I don’t think I would have wanted to make the movie“. “I think it’s not right to say, ‘This is the only version of Barbie, and that’s what women should aspire to be, look and act like‘”, the actress explained.
