Barbie is an upcoming romantic comedy produced by LuckyChap Entertainment and Mattel Films. The film is directed by Greta Gerwig and co-written with her partner and fellow filmmaker Noah Baumbach. Gerwig’s impressive filmography includes modern feminist gems Ladybird, Little Women, and Frances Ha — the latter of which she co-wrote with Baumbach. Baumbach meanwhile has written and directed acclaimed relationship dramas such as The Squid and the Whale and A Marriage Story.

Ken is brought to life by Ryan Gosling. The cast is rounded out by Will Ferrel, Emma Mackey, Ncuti Gatwa, Michael Cera, Simu Liu, Will Farrell, NIcola Coughlan, and America Ferrera.
