Reality TV Star Had A Sex Tape, Has 356 Million Instagram Followers... Will Play Villain In Film
Last Updated:
Kim Kardashian will be involved in the Bratz movie as a producer, but insiders claim she is wanting to portray the antagonist in the project.
Kim Kardashian is set to play the villain in the Bratz movie. The 44-year-old star will be involved in the film as a producer, but insiders claim Kim Kardashian is wanted to portray the antagonist in the project, for which Amazon MGM won a competitive bidding war.
The live-action movie about the toy dolls will be written by Charlie Polinger and Lucy McKendrick, alongside Erik Feig and Julia Hammer for Picturestart, while Kim will produce the film with Jason and Jasmin Larian for MGA Entertainment.
No further details about the film's cast or plot have been released yet.
It is hoped that the Bratz film can replicate the success of 2023's Barbie, which grossed over $1 billion at the box office. It joins film versions of children's toys like Polly Pocket, Barney, and Hot Wheels, which are currently in development at various Hollywood studios.
Bratz has sold over 200 million dolls since 2001, and Amazon MGM claims that the toys have the highest social media engagement across all platforms of any toy brand.
However, this does not guarantee success on the big screen, as a 2007 Lionsgate Bratz film disappointed at the box office.
Kim has stepped up her acting career recently with a central role in the upcoming legal TV series All's Fair. Her co-star Glenn Close didn't feel it was necessary to give the reality star any advice about the profession.
The Fatal Attraction star, who has worked with some of Hollywood's biggest names during her career, told DailyMail.com: 'I would not presume to give Kim Kardashian advice. I think she's a very, very brilliant woman. I think she could choose to do anything she wants.
'Frankly, if she wants to be an actress, that's one road. But she could be. She's a great executive. She's a great businesswoman. She's a very involved mother. She's getting her law degree. So, I think she has huge potential and that she's already fulfilled as a woman. And frankly, I will be fascinated to see what she chooses to do."
Glenn revealed that she was impressed with The Kardashians star's 'professional" approach on set as she balanced her acting work with her responsibilities as a mother and businesswoman.
The 78-year-old actress said: 'First of all, she's very professional. She has an amazing ability to compartmentalise. She would be talking to her kids, studying for a law exam, then having a board meeting for Skims, and then, you know, walking on set."
Close also explained that she was 'very impressed" by Kardashian as a person. She said: 'I mean, I really love her. I think she has a public image, right? I don't spend a lot of time on Instagram, but as a person, as a woman, I was very impressed."

New Details on Bond 26: Denis Villeneuve to Direct with Tom Holland, Jacob Elordi Among Frontrunners
After years of speculation, Amazon MGM has officially confirmed that Denis Villeneuve will direct the 26th James Bond film—making this the first 007 installment under a new studio's leadership. The Dune director has stepped into one of cinema's most iconic roles behind the camera. Villeneuve has also promised both reverence for the franchise and a new trajectory for the series. With an estimated 2028 release, the film remains in early development, but the studio is already narrowing down possible leads and writers. Villeneuve's vision and Amazon's new era Denis Villeneuve, whose filmography includes Blade Runner 2049, Arrival, and Sicario, called Bond 'sacred territory' in a statement, acknowledging his lifelong admiration for the spy series. He joins the project as executive producer alongside Tanya Lapointe, but does not hold final cut or a multi-film deal. The upcoming movie signals a major shift in the Bond franchise—formerly tightly controlled by the Broccoli family, who relinquished creative rights to Amazon earlier this year after six decades of stewardship. With Dune: Messiah already in pre-production, Villeneuve's Bond version will not enter full-scale production for at least two years. Still, sources tell Variety that the studio is accelerating development by seeking a screenwriter and finalizing casting preferences. Casting focus: Will there be a younger James Bond? Reportedly, Amazon MGM is targeting actors under 30 for the next James Bond. Early favorites include Jacob Elordi, known for Euphoria and Saltburn; Tom Holland, star of Spider-Man and Uncharted; and Harris Dickinson, who appeared in Maleficent: Mistress of Evil and Babygirl. While no official talks have begun, the studio appears intent on rejuvenating Bond with a new generation. Older fan picks like Henry Cavill and Aaron Taylor-Johnson are reportedly out of contention due to age. Jonathan Nolan was considered to write the script, per insiders, but his current commitments to other Amazon projects likely rule him out. A shortlist of other writers is under review as the studio shapes what could be a very different kind of Bond film.
