Nicola Coughlan is rocking bright red locks with a silver dress with pink tulle sleeves. Her makeup is Barbie-tastic with a bright pink lip and a dramatic winged liner.
“This Barbie is a diplomat,” the picture is captioned.
Of course, she was inundated with sweet messages from her pals including her Derry Girls co-star Dylan Llewellyn who wrote: “So buzzing!”
Laura Whitmore commented: “yes girl!!! X”.

“omfg,” Nell Mescal added with Jodie Comer writing: “Omgggggg”.
Nicola previously told the Evening Standard: “I am so excited for Barbie. I could only do the tiniest bit. I’m in it for 20 seconds, if even that. When Greta asked if I wanted to do it, I was like, ‘if she wants me to clean the floors in the studio I’ll do it’.”
“I think that movie is going to be one of the best movies ever made. I’m not just saying it, it’s so brilliantly clever, so camp, insane and it’s got so much heart,” she explained.
“Greta is a genius so to be in it for two seconds, I couldn’t be more excited.”
The official Instagram shared several pictures of the extremely star-studded cast with the caption: “Meet our Barbies and Kens #BarbieTheMovie”.
Also in the big reveal was singer Dua Lipa, who will be making her acting debut in the film.
Dua’s role is a mermaid barbie and she looks stunning with blue hair.
