Anne Hathaway insists it's 'a lucky thing' her Barbie movie never got made

The Barbie movie was in development for many years, with both Hathaway and Amy Schumer in the frame to play the titular character at different points. However, the project only truly got off the ground when Margot Robbie joined as the star and producer and hired Greta Gerwig to direct and co-write the script. During an appearance on the Happy Sad Confused podcast on Monday, The Princess Diaries actress admitted the version she was attached to would not have achieved the same success as Gerwig's.
