Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively as Ken and Barbie? The two A-list actors make one of the most powerful couples in the industry today. They are always twining together, making appearances at events, and have remained a favorite amongst fans and paparazzi alike. Lively is even considered the queen of the MET Gala and was missed by many as she skipped this year’s event. The 35-year-old recently gave birth to her fourth child while the 46-year-old is in the process of shooting Marvel’s Deadpool 3 and managing a soccer club.

With the excitement over Barbie bubbling in everyone’s mind as July draws closer, a fan has now imagined Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively as Ken and Barbie, respectively. Reynolds’s fitness and Lively’s blonde hair, wide smile, and fashion sense topped with their partnership certainly make them good potential candidates. While the idea is exciting, there are more than these factors that are to be considered when playing these perfect-looking roles.

Currently, it is Ryan Gosling and Margot Robbie who are set to dazzle in pink and other colorful outfits for the 2023 movie. Fans previously got glimpses of the film through leaked photos from the shoots, almost making it seem unreal. The look of perfect plastic bodies, shiny teeth, and a delicate world is something we can think of when we think of the Barbie world.

While the two actors are deemed to be perfect for its first live-action movie, could the Green Lantern stars have been a better choice? Twitterati seems to be split about the idea.

Twitterati pitches in on the idea of Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively as Barbie and Ken

There are few actors that can perfectly fit in the shoes of our childhood fantasy figures. When it comes to Barbie and Ken, Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively’s real-life chemistry would certainly show off in reel life too.

Another one backed it by saying how Lively does look like a real-life Barbie. 

Although there are those who feel like while the actors have good potential, they have passed the age to play these never-aging characters. 

But another one defended it by saying how 3-4 years of age difference should not matter or affect this.

One even feels that Reynolds would be better paired with Margot Robbie. Chris Evans was another favorite fan choice for the role of Ken.
