Margot Robbie Barbie movie: David Beckham is a favourite to play Ken in new UK poll

Earlier this week the Aussie actress announced she would play the iconic doll in a new movie. In a statement, Robbie said playing Barbie promoted “confidence, curiosity and communication”. The 28-year-old added: “I’m so honoured to take on this role that I believe will have a tremendously positive impact on children.” But just who could play Barbie’s boyfriend Ken in the upcoming movie?

But perhaps some fans have confidence that Beckham could pull off playing Ken opposite Robbie.

It’s certainly not the first time Barbie’s boyfriend has been portrayed in a movie.

Back in 2010, former Batman Michael Keaton played Ken in Toy Story 3.
