Margot Robbieisn’t counting out a return to Barbie Land — but she’s focusing on one movie at a time.
TheBarbieactress, 32, is featured alongside several of her costars, as well as the film’s directorGreta Gerwig, on the cover ofTIMEmagazine. Robbie is, at one point, asked about a potential future iteration of the highly anticipated film.
“I think you fall into a bit of a trap if you try and set up a first movie whilst also planning for sequels,” Robbie said.
Still, she has been part of conversations about what the future holds for Barbie in terms of a cinematic experience to follow the upcoming movie, in theaters next month.
“It could go a million different directions from this point,” Robbie said.

During an appearance onWatch What Happens Live with Andy Cohenearlier this month,Amy Schumeropened up about her excitement over seeingBarbie, an early version of which she famously was set to star in before dropping out.
“Ican’t wait to see the movie, I think it looks awesome,” revealed the actress/comedian, 42.
She then went on to give further details. “I think we said it was scheduling conflicts. That’s what we said,” Schumer recalled. “But it really was just creative differences. But there’s, like, a new team behind it and it looks like it’s very feminist and cool, so I will be seeing that movie.”
