Greta Gerwig’s Barbie Movie Trailer Puts Margot Robbie In The Middle Of A Space Odyssey

The first teaser trailer for the Barbie The movie is here to change the toys, and perhaps history, forever. The brief first look at the movie is already much funnier and weirder than you’d expect from a Barbie movie, but that was always the hope when Little woman (2019) and ladybug writer-director Greta Gerwig signed on to the project. The trailer also gives us our first look at Margot Robbie as Barbie herself, as well as Ryan Gosling’s Ken. Barbie is scheduled to hit theaters on July 21, 2023.

Although it is not yet known what exactly Barbie When it comes to it, this trailer certainly sets a specific tone and is quite funny. The trailer, playing in front of the epic size Avatar: The Path of Wateropens with a 2001: A Space Odyssey Parody featuring children destroying their dolls after seeing the majesty of a 30-foot tall Barbie Margot Robbie doll, all narrated by Helen Mirren. The trailer then immediately shows off the bright pinks and blues we might have expected from the project as Robbie’s Barbie surveys the neighborhood from the top of her Barbie Dreamhouse.

Joining Gerwig as a co-writer on the film is his partner Noah Baumbach (Story of a marriage). The cast also includes characters like Will Ferrell (Step Brothers), Michael Cera (arrested development), Kate McKinnon (Saturday night live), America Ferrera (ulgy betty), Emma MacKey (death on the nile), Rhea Perlman (Health), and Simu Liu (Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings), who appears briefly in the trailer.
