An upcoming CBS Studios TV series will explore the lives of Barbie inventor Ruth Handler and Bratz creator Carter Bryant and how their beloved dolls would go on to spark a bitter rivalry.
Mattel claimed that Bryant, a former Mattel designer, drew sketches of the Bratz dolls while he still worked at the company, according to Reuters. However, MGA said that Bryant drew up the Bratz designs in 1998, when he had been on hiatus from Mattel.
In 2008, a jury sided with Mattel. However, the decision was overturned and in 2011 a new set of jurors sided with MGA, according to the"As proud as I am for creating the #bratz#pinkiecooperandthejetsetpets#sugarplanet#shopkinsdolls, I'm equally as proud and LUCKY that I got to be on the Barbie design team," he wrote on
July 18."I even got my own featured Barbie. So excited for her renaissance, I really am, and can't wait to see the movie."
