When asked by ET's Nischelle Turner at the Fast X premiere in Rome about whether Mirren is just a narrator or acting in Barbie? she said:
"I just play a scene, but I don't know if the scene is there or not. but yes, i did the narration."
At a recent press conference for Golda ahead of the JFF opening ceremony, Mirren remarked:
"We need a Golda Meir Barbie, don’t you think? Wouldn’t that be a good idea?Golda is an interesting example in that she had immense power; but [her government] was called ‘Golda’s kitchen cabinet’ - she was happy to toddle around in the kitchen making everyone coffee, and playing the grandmotherly role."
"It’s a very different attitude to power from what you think of as the male, Netanyahu-type of power to the Golda Meir kitchen power. But it’s still immense power, it just comes from a different emotional place. Or let’s say maybe it plays into different psychologies of the people that you’re leading," she added.
Mirren's narration will guide us through Barbie's journey, emphasizing the importance of embracing one's uniqueness and celebrating individuality. As the story unfolds, viewers will find themselves swept away by the magical tale, all while being enchanted by the rich and velvety tones of Mirren's voice.
