The blonde and blue-eyed Harley Quinn may star in the live-action version of Barbie

According to foreign media reports, Hollywood is planning to shoot a live-action version of "Barbie", and according to the latest information, Margot Robbie, a famous Hollywood actress who plays "Harley Quinn", is in talks to join the cast as the lead, while Anne Hathaway was previously rumored to withdraw from the film.

The live-action version of Barbie was previously a Sony project. Mattel has now taken back the copyright, and the new partner is most likely Warner Bros., with Robbie starring and participating in the production.

In December 2016, Amy Schumer announced that she would star in the film. However, in March 2017, she announced that she would not star in the film due to "scheduling conflicts". She was also attacked by netizens because her appearance did not match the traditional Barbie image.

In August 2017, Sony confirmed that Anne Hathaway would star in the live-action version of Barbie, and scheduled the film to be released on August 8, 2018, directed by Alessia Jones. In January this year, the film was significantly delayed to April 8, 2020. But a few months later, the copyright was taken back by Mattel.

Previously, Sony hoped to make "Barbie" into a feminist film, telling the story of Barbie discovering that she is not as perfect as people imagined. She accepts her imperfections, delves into real life, and realizes that being unique is the most important thing.

Margot Robbie's career is booming. "Mary Queen of Scots," in which she stars with Saoirse Ronan, is expected to become a seed player in the award season. She also starred in Quentin Tarantino's new film "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood," working with Leo again. Her role as Harley Quinn will appear in many future DC films, including "Suicide Squad 2," "Birds of Prey," and "Harley Quinn and the Joker."
