If you happen to’re a Dua Lipa fan, you have most likely questioned concerning the particulars of her function in Barbie after seeing her on the forged listing. On the European premiere, she mentioned her purple carpet persona, confirming that she would not simply sing like Mermaid Barbie. It comes after a poster with a glimpse of her costume and character already revealed that shocker: she is not pink!
In an interview on the London premiere, she confirmed that collaborator Mark Ronson was the one who acquired her on the plastic fabulous set.
Dua informed The Upcoming that Mark requested her to work with him on a dance quantity for the movie, which she clearly agreed to and thus the tune, Dance the evening was born.
Whereas engaged on the soundtrack with Mark, Dua was approached by director Greta Gerwig, who informed her, “I might actually such as you to be mermaid Barbie.” In fact, Dua agreed. “I could not have been happier with my character,” she added, earlier than saying she’d be pleased to steal “all” of her costumes. So evidently the puppet function is greater than a quick cameo for the Grammy winner as she has a number of appears to be like.
The plot of the brand new Barbie film has been largely saved underneath wraps, although the truth that there are a number of Barbies apart from fundamental character Margot Robbie — who performs probably the most conventional iteration of the 64-year-old doll — was revealed early on within the film’s promotions by way of oh-so-meme-able character posters from the forged. The portraits function a glittering badge, coated with a photograph of the actors doing their factor, and a slogan that reads “This Barbie is…”
In Dua’s, she could be seen rocking a blue wig and tail, with the phrases “a mermaid” finishing the phrase on her poster. Hopefully she’s not too unhappy about being within the sea.

Up to now, we all know the identities of different Barbies within the film as medical doctors (Hari Nef), diplomats (Nicola Coughlan), and people (America Ferrera) from the posters. However precisely how their function will play in Margot’s journey from Barbie Land to actual life stays to be seen.
