While Ryan Gosling plays the main Ken doll in the Barbie movie, multiple versions of the fashionable hunk also exist in the same universe, played by Ncuti Gatwa, Simu Liu, Scott Evans and more. But, what if we told you that there were even more actors who almost portrayed Ken in the film, including a certain Schitt’s Creek star?
While sitting down with Vanity Fair, Barbie casting director Allison Jones revealed there were a few other candidates who nearly played Ken but had to turn down the opportunity. Jones candidly shared that Schitt’s Creek alum Dan Levy was offered one of the Ken parts in the Barbie movie, alongside Saturday Night Live star Bowen Yang and Dear Evan Hansen actor Ben Platt.
