Margot Robbie is in line to star as the ultimate blonde in a big screen Barbie movie, according to emails released by Wikileaks. This week, the whistleblowing website published 170,000 emails from the Sony hack, including messages in which producers debate who should take the lead role in the much-anticipated film.

"I like Margot Robbie, for instance. Or possibly a discovery,” Doug Belgrad, the president of Sony Pictures Entertainment Motion Picture Group, writes.
Men In Black producer Laurie MacDonald, in an email to former Sony boss Amy Pascal, says that Robbie "is Barbie come to life - she'd be great."

Meanwhile, the emails also reveal that Sandra Bullock, Amy Schumer, Amy Adams, Tina Fey and Kristen Wiig are being considered to play Barbie’s sidekick Maggie.

The biggest question of all remains though: Who will play Ken?
