'They wanted a girl-boss feminist twist on Barbie, and I couldn’t figure it out because that’s not what Barbie is,' Diablo Cody says of her scrapped 'Barbie' script.
, whose material leans heavily on self-deprecation and sex jokes, and that concept “made a lot of sense given the feminist rhetoric of 10 years ago,” Cody toldBut that spin on the iconic doll proved impossible for Cody to execute: “I didn’t really have the freedom then to write something that was faithful to the iconography; they wanted a girl-boss feminist twist on Barbie, and I couldn’t figure it out because that’s not what Barbie is.
“I think I know why I shit the bed,” she added. “When I was first hired for this, I don’t think the culture had embraced theor the bimbo as valid feminist archetypes yet. If you look up ‘Barbie’ on TikTok you’ll find this wonderful subculture that celebrates the feminine, but in 2014, taking this skinny blonde white doll and making her into a heroine was a tall order.”
