  I hope they get Todd Haynes to direct.

  None of the above.
  
  What about Jennifer Love Hewitt,LOL?!

  Jessica Alba seven or eight years ago would have been perfect.
  
  Today, though, if Megan Fox was cast in the role, I'd definitely go see the movie. And cast Ellen Page as her nerdy best friend who gets a makeover half-way through the film and steals Ken away from Megan.
  
  So who should play Ken? I can't help you out there.

  Barbie should be cast just like I'm Not There: multiple women (and maybe a man) of varying ages playing Barbie. It seems simple to me.

  As long as Beyonce gets the role of Christie, Barbie's black friend, no one will care who plays Barbie.

  I keep hoping this is going to be a film of Marc Shaiman's first show Barbie - The Musical.

  Agree with Jane, not much brain power has been used in
  makiking a decision to film Barbie. Unless you take into Basic
  Instinct territory. Now that would be creative.

  I think the mere fact that Barbie is being made into a movie only increases the fact that I have lost faith in the human race as well as the originality of Hollywood.

  I think Busy Philips should play her. After all, she was paid to play her when she was younger.

  I think they should make her black.

  Most of them are too old! Actually Jessica Simpson is perfect.
