Greta Gerwig’s Barbie was a global smash hit, receiving multiple Oscar nominations and praise from fans and critics for its marriage of deadpan satire and a heartfelt feminist message.According to actress Helen Mirren, who lent her voice to narrate the film, she did originally appear in it physically in a cut scene she described as “very funny” between her and British actress Olivia Colman. Mirren describes the scene as a drunken debate between herself and Colman, both of whom are playing fictionalized versions of themselves, debating over who the best British actress is. “She comes in and tries to take over the role of the Narrator,” Mirren said. “And I had to fight her off.”In fact, Gerwig was so confident about Mirren’s casting as the narrator for the film that she reportedly wrote the role specifically for the star, even referring to the character as “Helen Mirren” in the original script. According to the director, Mirren was always the first choice for the role due to her status as a woman in Hollywood and her ability to deliver witty, satirical lines in her distinct British accent.
