The LA premiere of the Barbie movie was not attended by everyone, and Greta Gerwig fully understood the reason behind it. Among all the people present at the Shrine Auditorium, a key crew member was absent due to a significant cause.
Deadline reported that Gerwig arrived alone at the Barbie premiere without her partner and the film’s co-writer and co-creator, Noah Baumbach. She informed the press that her partner couldn’t attend because he was currently supporting the ongoing Writers’ strike. She commended her partner’s dedication to supporting the Writers Guild of America, as she also believes that writers are indispensable for the existence of Hollywood.
“My co-writer and co-creator, my partner in love and art, Noah Baumbach, is not here. He is passionately supporting the fight of the Writers Guild of America. From the first line to the final cut, this movie is just as much his as anyone else’s. He is a Barbie girl. Nothing in Barbie happened without him, and nothing in Hollywood happens without writers.”
The 2023 Writers’ strike commenced on May 2, 2023, as the Writers Guild of America failed to reach an agreement with broadcast and streaming networks. This ongoing strike has brought productions to a halt and caused delays in TV program auditions. In the meantime, celebrities have rallied behind these writers who make the creation of shows possible. The writers have formulated a list of demands they wish to see fulfilled or agreed upon by these media companies, including their opposition to the implementation of AI technology in the writers’ room.
Barbie is one of the most highly-anticipated films of this summer and will be competing against Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer at the box office. This film adaptation of the beloved toy line boasts a star-studded cast, with Margot Robbie as Barbie and Ryan Gosling as Ken. They are joined by Emma Mackey, John Cena, Dua Lipa, Will Ferrell, and Helen Mirren.
The release date for Barbie is set for July 21, 2023.
