Hathaway says ‘lucky thing’ that her Barbie movie didn’t get made

Anne Hathaway is a fan of Greta Gerwig and Margot Robbie’s Barbie and feels it’s a lucky thing that her version of the movie never took off. The actor was attached to star in Sony’s Barbie movie. Alethea Jones was set to direct the movie but the project fell through.
Robbie’s production company, Lucky Chap, managed to convince Warner Bros to explore the movie with the actor attached to play the famous doll. And Hathaway believes that it’s a good thing that her version did not take off. “The thing that’s so exciting about what Margot and Greta and Ryan and America and that entire phenomenal team (did) is they hit a bullseye,” she said on Happy Sad Confused podcast.
“The bullseye caused the entire world to reach this level of ecstasy. Now imagine that version, that much energy, that much anticipation, that much emotion, but it’s not the right version. So I actually think of it as a lucky thing,” she added. (PTI)
