In 2023 it will officially be a Barbie world and I can’t wait to live in it.
The first teaser for the anticipated Greta Gerwig-directed live-action “Barbie” film dropped early Friday morning, December 16, after it was first released the night prior in theaters during “Avatar: The Way of Water” screenings. Margot Robbie stars as the title character with Ryan Gosling taking the role of her Ken. Little is known about the plot and there have been murmurs that it’s a musical or will have musical numbers. From the look at the teaser, it’s evident we’re in for a technicolor ride.
Opening with an homage to Stanley Kubrick’s 1968 film “2001: A Space Odyssey,” little girls are over playing with baby dolls and are ready to upgrade to the Barbie doll. Robbie is seen dressed in the original 1959 Barbie doll attire – the black and white striped bathing suit – and the signature hairstyle.
Although we don’t get to hear Margot’s Barbie voice the teaser shows a glimpse of Barbie looking over Barbie land…

And Barbie in the middle of her own. I loved playing with my Barbies growing up, so I’m excited to see my childhood ignited in this film.
“Barbie” comes to theaters on July 21, 2023.
