Barbie: This Rebel Teen Played Guardians of the Galaxy and You Didn’t Know About Him!

What if Barbie left the perfect world of dolls and began to discover the real world? That’s the premise of Greta Gerwig’s comedy, which hits theaters July 19. Along the way, Barbie (Margot Robbie) crosses paths with Sasha, played by Ariana Greenblatt.

At only fifteen years old, he already has a promising start to his career. With a father and grandparents who produced on Broadway, it’s no surprise that he got into comedy at an early age. At the age of 8, he began his television career with Disney and Nickelodeon, where he appeared undercover in the series. Liv and Maddie and Legendary DudasAlso in the clip Disney Channel Stars: Duck Tales Theme Song.

It wasn’t long before he landed a recurring role. The following year, she starred in the Disney Channel program Harley, The Least of My Cares, which centers on the adventures of a smart little girl (played by future Wednesday star Jenna Ortega) living with a large family. For two seasons and fifty episodes, Ariana Greenblatt plays the youngest of the siblings.

She then excelled in film: in 2017, she landed a role in the comedy Bad Moms 2, before briefly playing the childhood Gamora character in Avengers: Infinity War, Marvel’s highly profitable saga. Then he doubles Velma as a kid in Scooby! And joins the family expansion The one and only Ivan and the musical Where we come from, where she plays Leslie Grace as a child. We also see him in two SF dramas set in a post-apocalyptic world available on Netflix: Love And Monsters and Awake, where humanity is deprived of sleep. She plays Gina Rodriguez’s daughter there.

This year, the young actor has a double novelty. After starring alongside Adam Driver in ’65’s Earth Before (which was a bitter flop), she’s now in a 2023 feature alongside Barbie. She plays Sasha, America Ferrara’s daughter. A clumsy teenager who hasn’t played with dolls in a while and will have a hard time with Barbie. “Sasha is a very direct, very cultured girl and thinks logically. She has a point about almost everything and she doesn’t give a damn about anything. She always tells others what she thinks and is the most popular girl in school, so most people are afraid of her. It was a lot of fun to play this role.”Ariana Greenblatt explains.

We’ll find him in 2024 on the poster for another highly anticipated film, Borderlands, an adaptation of Eli Roth’s video game of the same name. An impressive cast will surround him: Cate Blanchett, Kevin Hart, Jack Black and Jamie Lee Curtis.
