Robbie spoke to the folks at Variety, saying that she is excited to put some positivity out in the world and a chance to be aspirational for younger kids. She also said that she wants the film to be a feminist take on the Barbie character.
Warner Bros. released the first teaser image of the film in May 2023. The image shows Robbie in a bright pink convertible, and it has been met with positive reactions from fans.
The iconic feet shot in Barbie
The upcoming live-action Barbie movie has been generating a lot of excitement, and one of the details that has caught the attention of fans is Barbie’s arched feet. In the film’s trailer, Barbie is seen taking off her heels, revealing her perfectly arched feet. Margot Robbie, who plays Barbie in the film, recently opened up about how they filmed those iconic frames. Margot Robbie recently explained to Fandango how she and the crew worked to make Barbie’s feet look like the doll’s in the upcoming live-action film. The clip of the interview has gone viral on TikTok, amassing over 1.3 million views.
“It was probably about eight takes. Wasn’t that many. They are my feet. I walked up, we had little sticky bits on the floor for the double-sided tape for the shoes, so they wouldn’t come off so that I could get my feet out of them and I was holding on to a bar, but that’s it. I wasn’t in a harness or anything like that. I just walked up, kind of held onto the bar above camera.”
Robbie said that she was happy with the way Barbie’s feet turned out. She said that they are “a symbol of Barbie’s strength and confidence.” The attention to detail in the Barbie movie is evident in the way that Barbie’s feet were created. It is clear that the filmmakers wanted to make sure that Barbie was portrayed as the perfect doll that she is.
Fans have been speculating if the different feet shots are a depiction of Barbie having grown up
The trailer also shows Barbie’s feet becoming flat, which could be a sign of something bigger. Some people believe that the flat feet represent Barbie’s loss of innocence or her growing dissatisfaction with her perfect life. Others think that they’re just a way to show that Barbie is a real person with real flaws. Whatever the meaning behind the flat feet, one thing is for sure: they’re definitely getting people talking. And with the movie’s release just around the corner, we’ll soon find out what they really mean.
Margot Robbie’s feet have been a hot topic since the release of the Barbie movie trailer. Some people are fascinated by the way her feet are arched, while others are amused by the fact that she wore special insoles to achieve the look. Whatever the reason, there’s no denying that Robbie’s feet are a major talking point. And it’s not just her feet that are getting attention.
The film is directed by Greta Gerwig and Noah Baumbach, and it also stars Ryan Gosling as Ken. Other cast members include Simu Liu, America Ferrera, Kate McKinnon, Alexandra Shipp, Will Ferrell, Michael Cera, Dua Lipa, John Cena, and Anne Hathaway. The film is already generating a lot of excitement. Fans are eager to see how Robbie and Gerwig will bring the iconic Barbie character to life.
