Amidst the fervor surrounding Margot Robbie’s vibrant portrayal in the Barbie movie, recent speculations have cast a shadow on the possibility of her return for a potential sequel. Reports swirling around the actress-producer suggest that she might not be inclined to reprise her role in a follow-up installment.

Allegedly, Robbie is not actively expecting to be part of Barbie 2, with rumors circulating that she’s comfortable with her co-star, Ryan Gosling, taking the helm in any future chapters of the franchise. Robbie told the Associated Press

“I think we put everything we had into this one. We didn’t build it to be a trilogy or something. [Director] Greta [Gerwig] put everything into this movie, so I can’t imagine what would be next.”

The buzz in Hollywood circles indicates that Robbie, a multifaceted talent known for her diverse range of roles, might be redirecting her focus to other projects. Some sources suggest that she views the initial Barbie storyline as self-contained, possibly not envisioning the need for a continuation of her character’s journey.

This revelation has struck a disheartening chord among dedicated followers of Margot Robbie’s work. For fans who found joy and enthusiasm in her rendition of the iconic character, the news comes as a cruel twist, dampening hopes for a sequel that might further explore Robbie’s take on Barbie.
