Sharon Rooney by Otto Masters for Rollacoaster, Summer 2023

“I think, what Barbie’s taught me is that you can do anything and be everything because she’s a woman who – literally – does everything. I’d really love to write something of my own. I see how clever Greta is and how wonderful she is and such an amazing actress, but she also is a phenomenal director. And Margot [Robbie] as well, she's an outrageously brilliant actress, but she's also got a fantastic production company. Barbie’s been a brilliant job to be surrounded by people like that who are working so hard but are all just really good people. In summary, Barbie’s taught me a lot about just going for it and believing.”
