We are almost nothing from the premiere of Barbie and one of the most interesting facts about this movie that promises to be the success of 2023 is the cameo that the original Barbie had.
Yes! As you read, the original Barbie has a very important role in the plot of this movie. Of course, we mean Barbara Handler, the daughter of Ruth Handler, the creator of our favorite dolls.
On May 26, the latest trailer for Barbiewhere we saw a scene in which Barbie, played by Margot Robbie, and Barbara are sitting on a bench and having a chat that, apparently, is the key for Barbie to resolve a situation that afflicts her.
Barbara tells Barbie that “Humans only have an end. Ideas live forever ”, a phrase that she makes the doll reflect on. With that being said, we think the scene could have been done with any actress. However, quite rightly, Greta Gerwig decided to give a special character to the inspiration of the doll mastermind, since, as you well know, Barbie is named after Ruth’s daughter.
It should be noted that, for now, it is not known if this is Barbara’s only cameo, but this moment has generated great expectations among fans. fans of Barbie, who describe it as a very tender gesture from the filmmaker.
Well, as you will remember, the Handler family had nothing to do with the making of the film, but including Barbara is a form of homage or tribute. Perhaps the same would have happened with Ken, Ruth’s other son. However, he died 30 years ago.
Finally, and so you don’t forget, this movie will hit theaters on July 21 and its premiere is expected to break box office records. So go organizing with your friends, cousins or with whom you played dolls, so that they go see it together.
