Margot Robbie gives seal of approval to A-lister asking to be Ken in Barbie sequel
Robbie clarified that a 'Barbie' sequel is not yet in the works
www.the-independent.comHere’s the latest I can share based on current public reporting:
- The main Ken in the Barbie movie is played by Ryan Gosling. This has been the primary casting since the release of the film in 2023, and remains the most widely referenced version in follow-up coverage.[1][9]
- Additionally, various outlets have discussed the idea that multiple Kens exist in the Barbie universe (including other actors in supporting or toy-line inspired roles), but Ryan Gosling is the canonical lead Ken in the film’s central storyline.[2][7]
- There have been rumors and reporting about other actors being considered or auditioning for Ken in different iterations or potential sequels, but no confirmed replacements for Gosling in the original Barbie film release as of now.[3][10]
If you’d like, I can pull the very latest articles from current outlets and summarize any new developments or confirmed casting for potential sequels.
