Sony’s Barbie movie has started making moves with the news that Oscar Winning Anne Hathaway is currently in talks to secure a deal to star in the movie.

Although very early days, Hathaway’s involvement will come down to her busy schedule, having only recently wrapped the all female Oceans Eight, Hathaway is due to start filming her next project IM Global’s sci-fi outing O2. If the filming schedules do not conflict Hathaway could be a sure thing.

Amy Schumer has already been linked to star in the movie which is looking to have Fun Mom Dinner’s Alethea Jones at the helm, Jones is also currently in talks with Sony to direct.

BarbieAmy Pascal, who is responsible for producing the all female 2016 Ghostbusters and the more recent Ton Holland lead Spider-Man: Homecoming is producing the Barbie movie with Walter F. Parkes and Laurie MacDonald, as well as Mattel.

Barbie has long been in the works for Pascal, who thinks she has finally got the right ingredients to make the movie work “Ms. Pascal thinks she has finally cracked “Barbie” as a live-action comedy.

The movie is said to have the same tones as “Splash,” “Enchanted” and “Big.” In it, the main character gets kicked out of Barbieland for not being perfect enough and lands in a real-world adventure. Schumer had also polished the script. Right now it is clear whether the same tone will be kept for the Hathaway version.

With production yet to get off the ground Sony are still looking to release the film in June 2018.
