The Barbie movie project was announced in 2014. At that time, Margot Robbie was not the first choice for the lead role.
Initially, the producers were eyeing actresses Amy Schumer and Anne Hathaway. However, the Suicide Squad star was ultimately chosen. Additionally, copyright issues were also the reason for the project’s delay.
