The highly anticipated live-action film Barbie starring Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling is all set to hit the theatres on July 21, 2023. The new live-action film version of Mattel’s popular doll line by director Greta Gerwig is almost here and is creating quite an excitement among millennials.

The movie is anticipated to be a huge hit rather than just another summer blockbuster. As a result, researchers in the field anticipate an outstanding opening weekend at the box office, with projections for only domestic revenue of up to $105 million. Then, consider what the global revenue would be.

The movie’s premiere is highly awaited, but the details of its plot are yet to be known. Insiders claim that the movie’s rating was higher than anticipated, shocking several with mentions of mild innuendo and the use of strong language.

The Barbie movie is created with a modern viewpoint

The upcoming Greta Gerwig-directed Barbie movie is creating quite a stir in the world of cinema. Insider Matthew Belloni revealed some unexpected details about the film’s plot when discussing it on his podcast. He claimed to have seen the movie and according to him, the movie pushes the boundaries of the renowned Barbie IP in ways that might surprise audiences and fans of the original doll.

Belloni claims that the film contains some unexpected content, such as a suppressed F-bomb and witty bo*b jokes. “There is an F-bomb, there is a bo*b joke,” said Belloni and added that there are references to the Mattel creator having issues with tax evasion as well. Because the patriarchy is represented as the story’s villain, the movie appears to go against the expectations that have long been attached to the character of the doll Barbie. This gives her a new, modern standpoint.

Belloni also joked that he was amazed that Mattel gave Greta Gerwig and Warner Bros. the creative freedom to approach the Barbie IP in such a risky way.

Despite having begun her career as an actor in low-budget films, she has recently made the switch to directing. She received five Academy Award nominations for her first movie, Lady Bird. This achievement secured her status as a director to watch out for as she continued to tell honest and personal stories typically circling the lives of women. Although Gerwig’s adaptation of Little Women was a risky undertaking, her subtle and creative approach won her major appreciation.

And Gerwig’s most recent project, Barbie, won’t be any less daring given that it seems on pace to give the iconic doll a brand-new perspective.
