Producers on 'Barbie' also include Robbie via LuckyChap with Tom Ackerley; Mattel's Robbie Brenner; and David Heyman for Heyday Films. LuckyChap's Josey McNamara and Mattel's Ynon Kreiz are executive producers. In a 2021, Robbie said taking on the beloved toy "comes with a lot of baggage... and a lot of nostalgic connections. But with that comes a lot of exciting ways to attack it. People generally hear 'Barbie' and think, 'I know what that movie is going to be', and then they hear that Greta Gerwig is writing and directing it, and they're like, 'Oh, well, maybe I don't.'"
Production began earlier this year in London. 'Barbie' is one of many Mattel properties on the burner for feature adaptation. Projects based on the magic 8 ball, Hot Wheels, 'Masters of the Universe', Polly Pocket, Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots, and the throwback dolls Chatty Cathy and Betsy Wetsy are all in the works.
