In a recent interview with the Associated Press, it was revealed that this is the reason why Margot Robbie does not want to do ‘Barbie 2‘, Greta Gerwig‘s revolutionary film that has become an absolute success since its release in the summer of 2023, being the highest grossing film of the year.
The renowned actress of Australian origin expressed, “We put all our effort and commitment into this installment, and honestly, we did not make it into a kind of sequel or trilogy“. These words from the interpreter of Barbie make it clear that there are no plans for a continuation of the story.

Margot Robbie even said, “Greta gave her all in this movie; it’s really hard for me to imagine what could be next“. There is no doubt that the lead actress is very satisfied with the result of the movie and the work of her colleagues on this film project.
Many internet users were in favor of Margot’s statements, since on repeated occasions, with the intention of taking advantage of the success of a first installment, companies start the production of a sequel, and it ends up not only being a failure but also ruins the magic of the first production.
