To make the ideal Barbie paradise, they worked hard.

The cast and crew faced numerous challenges while filming the upcoming Barbie movie.

It was recently disclosed by a production designer who worked on the movie how much paint—especially one color—was used to build the sets and how this led to a global scarcity.

Barbie's Dreamhouse, a vivid pink fluorescent structure with a pool and sparkling furniture, is one of her most recognizable features.

Production designer Sarah Greenwood stated that there was a shortage of the Rosco paint they used in a recent Architectural Digest story.

"The world ran out of pink," she stated.

Greta Gerwig, the director, explained why it was important to keep the "kid-ness" of the film sets by saying that "maintaining the 'kid-ness' was paramount." I wanted everything to be nearly too much, including the pinks.

She continued by saying she didn't want to "forget what made me love Barbie when I was a little girl."

Gerwig said, "Why walk downstairs when you can slide into your pool? That's part of the appeal of the Barbie Dreamhouse and why it felt so dazzling to kids. When there is an elevator that matches your outfit, why walk upstairs?

The much awaited film, which stars Ryan Gosling as Ken and Margot Robbie as the title character, hits theaters on July 21.

Nicola Coughlan, Kate McKinnon, John Cena, Simu Liu, Will Ferrell, and even Helen Mirren make appearances in the movie as well as other well-known actors. The critically acclaimed movies Lady Bird (2017) and Little Women (2019) were previously directed by Gerwig.
