American Girl

“I am so excited to tell a story that tackles the issues of girlhood in a real and compelling way,” said screenwriter Lindsey Anderson Beer.

The doll has been designed by Linda Kyaw-Merschon and Rebecca DeKuiper.

“As we celebrate this major milestone, we’re thrilled to recognise the very first generation of American girls who grew up with these beloved, original characters and made them the phenomenon they are today,” said Jamie Cygielman, General Manager of American Girl.

The UNO movie will be an action heist comedy set in the underground hip hop world of Atlanta.

Cygielman joins as senior vice president and general manager of American Girl.
