And according to Robbie Brenner, the head of Mattel Films and a producer on Barbie and all developing Mattel movie projects, there's already a "great" script written by Lena Dunham for the live-action adaptation of the beloved miniture toy.

"First of all, they are two of my favorite ladies ever," Brenner told Variety of Collins and Dunham in a July 26 interview. "It's been an amazing collaboration."

"Truly so excited to be coming on as both a producer and Polly herself! Can't wait to dive into this pastel world."

In a statement of her own in 2021, Dunham credited Polly Pocket for "countless hours of childhood escapism" and giving her "a tiny world of magic and autonomy to narrate."

The Girls alum added to Deadline, "I'm so thrilled to bring to bear both my love of this historic property and also my deep-seated belief that young women need smart playful films that speak to them without condescension."

The movie will center around a young girl and a pocket-sized woman who form a friendship, per the outlet. Other Mattel properties in development include a Barney movie starring Get Out actor Daniel Kaluuya and a flick based on Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots with Fast & Furious' Vin Diesel attached.

"At this moment, it's all I've got,"Gerwig recently told The New York Times of Barbie, which stars Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling. "I wouldn't want to squash anybody else's dream but for me, at this moment, I'm at totally zero."
