My uninterest in the Barbie movie has completely vanished. It all changed for me this afternoon after Variety reported that Greta Gerwig and Noah Baumbach had signed on to co-write the upcoming doll movie’s screenplay— with Gerwig potentially directing as well.
Although we know Baumbach as a director, he has written screenplays for both Wes Anderson (“The Life Aquatic,” “The Fantastic Mr. Fox”) and, of course, himself (“Frances Ha,” “The Squid and the Whale,” “Greenberg”). Gerwig, coming off her triumphant directorial debut “Lady Bird,” has been getting solid Oscar buzz for her upcoming fall release “Little Women.”
Yeah, I’m on-board this movie.
The man doesn't stop. James Gunn has confirmed he's already hard at work writing his next film, even as ‘Man of Tomorrow’ makes its way toward theaters next summer.
