McKinnon discussed the process behind creating the look for Weird Barbie, whose face is covered in marker, back in July. “A lot of discussions went into the placement of like, ‘Where does the marker go on your face?’ and ‘What is the shape of the squiggle?’ and ‘How chopped is the hair?’ " the actress said on Good Morning America at the time. “It's based on the Barbie that I think we all had where you'd cut the hair off and burn the clothes and draw on it,” McKinnon explained. “Actually, a lot of thought goes into all of those elements, and so it was very exciting to work on that look.” Kate McKinnon in Barbie (2023).
