Barbie, Greta Gerwig's third feature film as a solo director, is missing two actors who could have continued a casting tradition of hers.
The new live-action Barbie movie directed by Greta Gerwig is full of big names, led by Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling, but two actors are missing from the cast of Barbie, breaking from Gerwig’s movie tradition. Along with Robbie and Gosling, various stars are playing other versions of Barbie and Ken, including Issa Rae, Kate McKinnon, Simu Liu, and Ncuti Gatwa.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Barbie is Gerwig’s third film as a solo director, having first co-directed 2008’s Nights and Weekends alongside Joe Swanberg, with whom she also co-produced and co-starred. Whether she’s acted or directed in her films or a combination of both, she has always written them, with Barbie being no exception.
Leading up to Barbie’s premiere, there was great speculation online that Chalamet and Ronan might have surprise roles in the film. However, Gerwig recently revealed that though Chalamet and Ronan were supposed to have “specialty cameos” in the Barbie movie, it ultimately didn’t work out, which made her “so annoyed.” After years of working together, Gerwig said of the acting duo, “I love them so much. But it felt like doing something without my children.
This news was seen as both shocking and saddening to many viewers, though some are comically holding out hope. One Twitter user even referenced Andrew Garfield repeatedly saying he wouldn't be appearing in Spider-Man: No Way Home ahead of its release as a way to suggest that Gerwig could be withholding a big surprise as well. Sadly, Gerwig seems to be telling the truth, meaning that Chalemet, Ronan, and Gerwig won’t be completing what could have been a trifecta for the trio.
Why Timothée Chalamet & Saoirse Ronan's Barbie Cameos Didn't Happen According to Gerwig, both Chalamet and Ronan couldn’t work the Barbie cameos in with their schedules, specifically because Ronan was working on producing another project. Ronan is starring in and producing The Outrun, which is currently in post-production.
