In a recent interview with Josh Horowitz on the Happy Sad Confused podcast, Michael Cera revealed some interesting behind-the-scenes details about the upcoming Barbie movie directed by Greta Gerwig. Cera, who plays the lovable character Allan in the film, shared that Ben Affleck was initially slated to make a cameo during Allan's fight sequence with the construction Kens.
Cera disclosed that he wasn't even supposed to be involved in a fight in the movie. 'Am I allowed to say what was supposed to be? It was supposed to be Ben Affleck. Am I allowed to say that?' Unfortunately, Affleck had to back out of the film due to his commitment to another project. Cera mentioned that Affleck wanted to do it, but his directing duties on his own movie prevented him from participating. This turn of events gave Allan, Cera's character, a chance to shine.
