An Oppenheimer producer asked Margot Robbie to move Barbie’s release date so that it wouldn’t fall on the same day. “If you’re afraid of going against us, then move your date! », she replied.
This is what the actress said during a conversation filmed by Variety with Cillian Murphy, who played the father of the atomic bomb in Christopher Nolan’s drama.
“One of your producers, Chuck Roven, called me. He said, “I think you should move your date.” And I said, “We won’t change the date. If you’re afraid of being against us, then move your date!” “, shared Margot Robbie.
Months later, the Australian actress and producer congratulated herself on having held her own. The simultaneous release of Barbie and Oppenheimer in cinemas last summer sparked a global craze, nicknamed “Barbenheimer”.
“It’s a perfect double bill… It’s clear the whole world agreed. Thank God ! “, she stressed. People were looking forward to [Christopher] Nolan’s next movie and Greta Gerwig’s next movie. Seeing them at the same time was exciting. »
For those who haven’t had the opportunity to see it in the cinema, Barbie will land on Crave on December 15.
