Margot Robbie jumped at the chance to play “pioneer” Barbie, and says her £10million salary reflects the fact her character is NOT a dumb blonde.
The actress, 32, told how she was thrilled to work with feminist director Greta Gerwig. And in a landmark move for Hollywood, both Margot and her 41-year-old co-star Ryan Gosling – who plays boyfriend Ken – will be paid £10.4million
While playing the iconic doll means Margot has to wear a lot of pink, she is quick to defend Barbie’s reputation ahead of the film’s release next year.
