First Look at Ryan Gosling as Ken in Margot Robbie's BARBIE Movie
Warner Bros. has shared a first look photo featuring Rayn Gosling as Ken in Margot Robbie’s upcoming Barbie movie, which is being directed by Greta Gerwig. As you can see, Gosling is ridiculously perfect for the role of Ken. He’s sporting that bleach blonde hair, a spray tan, and the whole jean outfit just makes me laugh.
We already shared an image of Robbie in the role of Barbie, which you can check out here. These two are sure going to make a great couple.
Gerwig co-wrote the script for the film with her partner and collaborator Noah Baumbach. The supporting cast includes America Ferrera, Simu Liu, Kate McKinnon, Alexandra Shipp, Emma Mackey, Kingsley Ben-Adir, Issa Rae, Michael Cera and more.
Liu described the Barbie movie as being “wild” and “incredibly unique,” and said, “I wish I could just show you what we do day-to-day because it’s crazy… When you’re doing a scene and it’s working, you hear, ‘HAHAHAHA!’ It’s the best feeling in the world. If you’re an asshole on a Greta Gerwig set, there’s no hope for you.”
While there are no plot details to share, it’s said that several Barbie and Ken characters factor into the plot. Liu is one of them, and he had to wax his entire body for the role, which he called “one of the most painful experiences of my life.”
Barbie will open in theaters July 21st, 2023 from Warner Bros.
