Barbie: Dancer's three months as a Ken doll in smash-hit film
By Chris RobinsonBBC News
A dancer who features in The Hit movie Barbie has revealed what it was like to spend months as a Ken doll.
Gustave Die, from Crook, County Durham , appears As One of 30 'Kens ', alongside Hollywood star Ryan Gosling .
" We would have to shave every single hair off our Bodies - Then they would apply The Body paint on our skin to make us look like dolls, " He Said .
The 28-year-old, who studied dance at Gateshead College, said being part of The Film was an " Amazing feeling".
He spent three months shooting scenes at Warner Bros. studios in Leavesden, Hertfordshire.
Gustave was introduced to Barbie star Margot Robbie , and spent much of his time shooting scenes with co-star Ryan Gosling , who some have.
" Ryan's a very chilled guy, he's just a lovely guy, " He Said .
" He was very appreciative of our dancing and how we were, and The Vision of it all.
" I asked him how he was finding the UK compared to The States - he loves it here, He Said it's different for him, especially The Accents .
" He likes to know who he is working with, which is really nice. He needed that bond with his 'Kens ' - as an actor he wanted to act with purpose and build that vibe With Us . "
Gustave went through intense auditions to land his role, although from its supporting cast.
" Being a Ken doll was Fun - it was also a lot of work, " He Said .
" It was Every Day for three months - our call time would be four or five in The Morning , we would have to shave every single hair off our Bodies , Then they would apply The Body paint on our skin to make us look like dolls, " He Said .
" It's crazy what they would do behind The Scenes .
" When we saw the Barbie house it was Amazing - There was a slide. I said 'this is absolutely crazy'.
" When I watched The Film I thought, 'Wow, this is not what I expected', but it was Amazing how they have done it, how it was all directed.
" There are some good scenes which I Am happy to have been in - There 's a fight sequence that leads to a dance sequence, it's one of my favourites. "
It is not the First Time The Professional dancer has appeared on screen.
He featured in Matilda The Musical , and has also appeared in The Music videos of Ed Sheeran 's Bad Habits , and Unhealthy by Anne-Marie, featuring Shania Twain .
Gustave has also recently filmed for upcoming movies Wonka, Snow White , and the two-part, big-screen version of musical Wicked.
Now based in London, Gustave returns to the North East regularly, where he also teaches up-and-coming dance students.
" At the start I had to work so hard, especially coming from the North and going to London, it was a big move, " he added.
" I think this movie will bring out a lot in people, who will think 'Right, it's time'. "
