Matt Bomer turned down playing Ken in 'Barbie'. Despite auditioning to play the doll in Greta Gerwig's live-action blockbuster based on the famous Mattel dolls Barbie and Ken, the 46-year-old star rejected the part, “choosing not to spend extensive time away from his family." He told Vanity Fair magazine: “I recorded it on my own, played a bunch of different Kens — and I dressed differently for all of them. “I recorded the lines of the other person’s dialogue on my recorder and then gave myself space to respond.” Ryan Gosling, 43, played stereotypical Ken in the movie and Margot Robbie, 33, pl...

Simu Liu couldn't keep up with fellow Ken, Ryan Gosling, in the 'Barbie' gym. Director Greta Gerwig thought it would be a fun idea to put the actors playing the real versions of the Ken doll in the live-action flick about the Mattel toys in the gym together to bond and channel their inner 'Kenergy'. Simu, 34, told Men's Health: “It was just like, let’s work out, because that’s what I think ‘Kenergy’ is about. Kens would really care about that. “So, just as an excuse to bring us all together and get us doing man things, Greta put us in a gym together, and we worked out every day leading up to t...

Simu Liu hated having to wax his body for 'Barbie'. The 34-year-old star will play a variation of Ken in the much-anticipated new movie and didn't enjoy getting rid of all of his body hair to achieve the character's doll-like features. Speaking to Variety at the Met Gala, Simu said: "It was incredible... minus the body waxing. "Yeah, Kens don't... you got to present an even, doll-like complexion. To do that, you gotta get rid of the hair. I mean, within reason! But, there was a lot of waxing where I have never waxed before." He added: "Aside from that, it was incredible. A wonderful, vibrant s...

The 33-year-old actor will reprise his role as Xu Shang-Chi/Shaun in the follow-up to the 2021 Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) blockbuster 'Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings' but does not feel the weight of expectation that came with the original film.
