"The Bratz toy line has sold over 200 million dolls worldwide. – The Hollywood Reporter"

Washington, June 26

Reality TV star and entrepreneur Kim Kardashian is reportedly in talks to star in a live-action film based on the popular Bratz fashion doll toy line.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the project is being developed by Amazon MGM, with Charlie Polinger and Lucy McKendrick penning the script.

The Bratz toy line, launched in 2001, has reportedly sold over 200 million dolls worldwide. A previous live-action film adaptation, released in 2007, underperformed at the box office.

Despite this, the brand remains popular, and the new film aims to bring the characters to life for a modern audience.

Kardashian has been busy with various projects, including her recent appearance in the 12th season of American Horror Story.

She is currently filming Ryan Murphy's Hulu legal drama series 'All's Fair', which she also produces. Additionally, she is set to star and produce the forthcoming Netflix comedy movie 'The 5th Wheel'.

Charlie Polinger and Lucy McKendrick are writing the script for the live-action Bratz film. Polinger has marked his writing and directorial debut with 'The Plague', which screened at Cannes earlier this year.

McKendrick is also set to write, direct, and star in the feature film Fangs, alongside Toni Collette and Joel Edgerton.

Honestly, I don't see Kim Kardashian fitting the Bratz vibe at all. The dolls were about bold fashion and attitude, not just celebrity status. There are so many talented actresses who could do justice to this role. Hollywood keeps recycling the same stars 😒

As someone who grew up with sisters obsessed with Bratz dolls, this news is interesting! Kim K does have that glam factor, but I hope they don't make it too superficial. The dolls had distinct personalities - hope the movie captures that essence. Fingers crossed! 🤞

Why does everything need a live-action remake these days? The 2007 movie was bad enough. Instead of milking nostalgia, why not create something original? Indian cinema is doing better in this aspect with fresh concepts. Hollywood needs to up its game!

Kim Kardashian in Bratz? That's actually a smart business move. She's built an empire on fashion and branding - perfect match for the doll franchise. Might bring in new audiences. Business-wise, it's a win-win situation. 💯

I loved Bratz dolls as a kid! But I hope they don't whitewash the characters. The dolls were diverse with different ethnicities - that was their USP. If they're casting Kim, they better keep the multicultural aspect intact. Representation matters!

Another day, another Hollywood remake. Yawn. Meanwhile in India, we're getting original content like RRR and Pathaan that's making waves globally. Maybe Kim should take notes from our film industry's success! 😎
