New Set Photos of Margot Robbie’s Barbie Transformation Are Here (and Extremely Pink)

The highly-anticipated, highly-hyped Barbie film is currently shooting, and the first photos from set have emerged of Margot Robbie in character as the iconic Malibu doll. Robbie’s transformation is spot-on with long platinum hair, curtain bangs, and an all-pink ensemble featuring a halter top and pink bell bottom pants adorned with stars on the flare.

The photo comes shortly after Warner Brothers released stills of both Robbie and her Ken, Ryan Gosling, in character.

Not much is known about the plot of Barbie, which comes out on July 21, 2023. But actor Simu Liu, who was also cast in the production, is already gushing over it. Barbie is “wild” and “incredibly unique,” Liu told British GQ. “I wish I could just show you what we do day to day because it’s crazy.” He joined the film after a junior agent raved about the script. “He literally said this verbatim,” Liu recalled. “He was like, ‘If I could stake my career on any one script, it’s the Barbie script. I really think you should do it.’” And so he is.

Last June, Robbie spoke to British Vogue a little about Barbie. She admitted that she understands the controversy attached to the project and the doll historically. “Right, it comes with a lot of baggage!” she said with a smile. “And a lot of nostalgic connections. But with that come a lot of exciting ways to attack it.”

She added that the movie won’t be what people expect it to be. “People generally hear ‘Barbie’ and think, ‘I know what that movie is going to be,’ and then they hear that Greta Gerwig is writing and directing it, and they’re like, ‘Oh, well, maybe I don’t…’” she said, trailing off.
