Michael Cera's Flip Phone Prevents Him From Joining 'Barbie' Cast Group Chat

  • Michael Cera couldn't join the group chat for the Barbie movie cast because he uses a flip phone instead of a smartphone.
  • The male actors who play Kens in the Barbie movie have their own private group chat, but Cera's character, Allan, is meant to be in his own world anyway.
  • Cera prefers simpler technology and avoids social media, so he doesn't mind missing out on the group chat with co-stars like Ryan Gosling and Simu Liu.
  • Margot Robbie, who plays Barbie, hosted a sleepover for the female cast members before filming, while the male actors offered support from a distance.
  • Cera's tech choices have garnered both criticism and admiration from others in Hollywood and beyond.
