Marvel actor,Simu Liumade hisBarbiedebut by playing the role of Ken alongside other dolls. However, he was highlighted majorly due to his rivalry withRyan Gosling‘s Ken which definitely was one of the key moments in the new film.
Given that the duo shared an intense competition in quite a playful way, the former revealed that it was all made possible after director, Greta Gerwig witnessed the latter getting real-time envious due to the former.
In an interview, he recalled how he stood out from other Kens aside from Gosling and stole his limelight!
“I don’t know that my goal was ever to stand out from all the other Kens in the film, but I will say that some things did emerge in the backflip department. It was revealed very early on that my Ken could backflip.”
His backflip became the prime reason why he was able to set intense chemistry with his on-screen rival.
“I didn’t realize that at the time, but we were in the middle of dance rehearsal, and our choreographers, Lisa and Jen, were looking for a move that swept across the screen and was acrobatic. I was like, ‘Alright, how about this?’ I showed them something, and then they were like, “Oh! We’ve got to do this.” And I remember Ryan was like, “[deep sigh].” That in and of itself was the perfect reaction, and then Greta seeing it was like, “That’s it. That’s in the movie.”
Gerwig was the one who witnessed the moment and knew that she got what she wanted between the two- a playful yet arch-rivalry.

“Don’t hold me there, man. I mean, do you want me to touch you like that?”
To that, Liu responded,“You don’t what –- oh, it’s too tender? Fair enough.”
This moment was taken wrong with many believing that they are not on good terms but the Marvel actor addressed those claims stating,
“I’d beach off with this Kenadian again in a heartbeat. He is the best human in every way, especially when he jokes around with us on the carpet and on set, infecting all of us with his kenergy.”
