The fan-favorite dance sequence almost got scrapped.
Barbie definitely became one of the most-buzzed about parts of this year's pop culture, showcasing the iconic Mattel doll's world with a blend of whimsey and sincerity. One of the most unconventional moments of the film may have been the"I'm Just Ken" sequence, which rendered the plight of Ken through an elaborate song and dance number.
"I was like, if people could follow that in Singing in the Rain, I think we'll be fine. I think people will know what this is. So that was the big reference point," Gerwig continued."Even though everything felt right to me and was giving me so much joy in the way we were doing it, it was also like, 'Oh no, this could be just terrible, but now I'm committed.'"
"This has been coming my whole life," Gosling told Variety back in 2022. "I think a lot of Kens will feel seen when they see this. Gotta do it for the Kens of the world. Nobody plays with Kens!" As the report outlines, Warner Bros. Pictures"made overtures" about Gerwig possibly returning to direct a Barbie sequel, but her team delayed those talks until the first film's debut.
