Warner Bros. Pictures and Mattel Film have unleashed a massive batch of twenty-four character posters for the live-action “Barbie” movie, which will open around the world starting from July 21st.
In the film, a doll living in ‘Barbieland’ is expelled for not being perfect enough and sets off on an adventure in the real world. Greta Gerwig (“Lady Bird”) directed and co-wrote the script with her partner Noah Baumbach.
Margot Robbie takes on the iconic role of Barbie alongside Ryan Gosling as Ken, along with Kate McKinnon, Simu Liu, Issa Rae, Alexandra Shipp, America Ferrera, Michael Cera, Emma Mackey, Hari Nef, Scott Evans, Ncuti Gatwa and Will Ferrell.
In addition, the posters confirm Dua Lipa, Kingsley Ben-Adir, Connor Swindells, Ariana Greenblatt, Emerald Fennell, Sharon Rooney, Nicola Coughlan, Ritu Arya, Ana Cruz Kaye, and Jamie Demetriou have joined the cast whilst Helen Mirren will serve as narrator.
The one-sheets confirm reports that many of the guys will be playing different versions of Ken, whilst there are other characters like Allan and Midge in here too.
Dua Lipa has reportedly created multiple new songs for the film, which will open directly against Warners’ former flame Christopher Nolan who is delivering the polar opposite style film with the black-and-white and very serious “Oppenheimer”. The second trailer for the “Barbie” film is due out later today.
