AlthoughBarbiewas indeed a masterpiece, it also held a lot of risky content that many people could have disagreed with, including those at Mattel. Furthermore, Mattel had never made a movie before, thus, taking this huge risk with their first movie wasn’t something most would have agreed with.

But that’s where Margot Robbie came into the picture as she pitched the very concept and storyline of the movie to Mattel in such a way that they just couldn’t disagree with her. Sharing on a recent episode ofActors on Actors by VarietywithCillian Murphy, the Harley Quinn star said:
Moreover, not only did Robbie perfectly explain to them the entire process and thoughts behind the dialogues written for the characters, but also fought with her excellent way with words to completely convince Mattel to allow them to include all the necessary material in the script, even the risky jokes.

Just like that,Margot Robbiemade sure that the fabulous movie script that wasBarbiesaw the light of day, and fans just can’t be thankful and appreciative enough to theSuicide Squadstar for the same!

Posting toX, here’s what they have to say:
listening to Margot Robbie explain to Cillian Murphy how she helped convince Mattel to make BARBIE really illustrates how shrewd a film producer she’s become, packaging her thoughts into articulate but gentle bite-size statements for easy comprehension that express actual ideas

you can tell Robbie spent a lot of time developing her speech patterns and diction to master the specific skill of how to get through to stuffy film executives and trustfund film producers, and it’s very clear she’s gotten extremely good at it
Personally if Margot Robbie said I should do something I would just listen and do it

Being able to actually explain your movie idea is such a valuable skill. In my college program I’ve talked to so many people who have zero communication skills whatsoever and can hardly explain the crap they make.

Honestly need a masterclass by Margot Robbie. People do not realize what a necessary and difficult skill it is especially when you’re in any art field.

Which from my understanding is something she had practice on: that it was her that pushed for the Birds of Prey movie to get made, because it was on the verge of getting canceled.

All in all, fans are now totally convinced that Margot Robbie is not just a deadly beauty but a plethora of brilliant brains as well!
