Amy Schumer is revealing how she really felt about the Barbie movie after previously working
00:04
on an earlier version of the film that never made it to the big screen.
00:09
The comedian took part in the "Barbenheimer" craze, with many moviegoers seeing both Barbie
00:13
and Oppenheimer over the weekend.
00:15
In an Instagram post on Monday, she wrote that she really enjoyed both films, but she
00:20
joked that she thinks she should have played Emily Blunt's role in Oppenheimer, saying,
00:24
"Do better, Hollywood."
00:25
Schumer was previously tapped to star as the iconic fashion doll in a live-action movie
00:30
that was set up at Sony in 2016.
00:32
That film was described as a "fish-out-of-water" story about a woman kicked out of Barbie land
00:37
for not being "perfect enough."
00:39
Schumer dropped out of the project four months later, citing scheduling conflicts before
00:43
Anne Hathaway took on the role of Barbie.
00:45
And then Margot Robbie's production company Lucky Chap successfully convinced Warner Bros.
00:49
to take on the film.
00:51
The comedian previously told The Hollywood Reporter, "They definitely didn't want to
00:54
do it the way I wanted to do it.
00:56
The only way I was interested in doing it."
00:58
Schumer wrote her Barbie as an ambitious inventor.
01:01
The studio wanted said invention to be a "Jello high heel."
01:05
