bet she didn't think this could happen, probably thought it would propel her into the movie big league like Margot Robbie with Suicide Squad (but not the sequels)
The article's "source" is a joke and the dailymail is not a trustworthy publication - this is an obvious fabrication.
shareBig league means A-list. A-list means world fame. Robbie has no world fame. She ain't no A-lister. She's not in the big league.

Margot Robbie was the highest earning actress of 2023, placing ahead of Tom Cruise.
Her accolades include nominations for three Academy Awards, six BAFTA Awards and four Golden Globe Awards.
There must have been something fundamentally wrong with the world.
That is gender pay gap right there.

With Barbie, I think she clearly made the A-list (it wasn’t a good movie, but she got commercial credentials)
shareshe kicked the front door open but she dont live in the house yet.
shareDoes my 70 year old mother know the name Margot Robbie? No. Does she know names like Robert De Niro, Tom Cruise or Brad Pitt? Yes. That's because THEY are actual A-listers.
A-listers are known by almost everybody on this planet. It has nothing to do with earnings or how many lead roles somebody had.
No, because all 3 are old actors with long careers that she saw while still being "young".
shareRobbie is a big name. If she wasn't before, Barbie made her one.
share...Seriously, now? You mean to tell me neither she, nor anyone else for that matter, at any point thought making a musical was a bad idea for a sequel to a film whose target audience was fans of 70's and 80's Scorsese and/or comics?
shareIt was a Gaga ego vehicle, plain and simple.
shareHer acting career took off with a musical in 2018, with "A Star is Born" (drew $436 million)
shareYou nailed it.
Why would anyone think a musical sequel was a good idea?
I thought it was absurd right from the beginning.
To be fair - most reports say that she signed on before the script was even written. So she didn’t really know the movie would be bad.
shareDid she really? That was a mistake but hindsight is 20/20, I guess.
shareNo, it does not work like that, not anymore.
Because it used to like that and directors used to put nude scenes into the films by modifying scripts after the contracts were signed.
#4 says she she didn't know the script

But she definitely thought the finished script was a winner, otherwise why was she shocked?
share'State of shock'? Wow, we don't know how hard the lives of some of these people are. I hope she's getting plenty of mental health councelling and support on social media.
shareShe no doubt figured J2 would easy do same if not more than J1s opening, and probably go on to 1b total again and shed be front and centre as the new star ..maybe even an Oscar nom..
But now its bombed (will struggle to about a third of J1 ww), bad reviews, potential razzie nom, and Margot Robbie still thought of as Harley Quinn = GaGa's mind blown
Wow, from possible Oscar nom to potential razzie! Yep, not at all what she expected!
shareit would have.....if the movie was written to people's satisfaction.. it wasn't really up to her
whatever else, she was hot as shit in her 20's. we will always have La Camaleón.
too bad she didn't get into movies earlier, but she was probably so focused on her music career
not everyone can manage a 4 hour sleepnight like JLO
If her cheque didn't clear, then I think she might have been in a state of shock, otherwise I think she'll be okay.
