'Barbie' writers Greta Gerwig and Noah Baumbach told 60 Minutes they wrote 'way too much material' for the role of Ken played by Ryan Gosling.
This week, 60 Minutes profiled director, actor and screenwriter Greta Gerwig. Her latest film, the out-of-the-box blockbuster 'Barbie,' was the highest grossing movie of last year, bringing in more than a billion dollars worldwide. When she was initially tapped to write and direct it, Gerwig enlisted the help of her partner in work and life, filmmaker Noah Baumbach.
The writing duo also revealed how their writing process informs their approach to directing. Both Gerwig and Baumbach said they prefer to stick to exactly what was written in the script with no substitutions on set when the movie is filmed. Gerwig said that in the films 'Lady Bird' and 'Little Women,' everything was scripted, down to each 'you know' and 'um.
