28 Jul – Following their 2021 announcement, Mattel has now confirmed that the upcoming "Polly Pocket" is now in the works. The news was shared by Mattel Films' Robbie Brenner, who also produced "Barbie" and all developing Mattel projects, saying that the movie has a script now and that it is "great". It is noted that the movie will have Lily Collins playing the lead, with "Girls" creator Lena Dunham directing.
Back in 2021, Collins expressed her elation over the idea of playing the tiny character on the big screen, writing, "I'm so excited to partner with this inspiring powerhouse of a team. Developing this project with Robbie, Lena, Mattel and MGM to reintroduce Polly in a fun, modern way has been such a treat. As a child who was obsessed with Polly Pocket, this is a real dream come true and I can't wait to bring these tiny toys to the big screen."
