As if the fact that it’s Friday wasn’t already great, Warner Bros has gone ahead and made our day *chefs kiss* by dropping the full Barbie trailer.
Barbie fans (and pretty much, the entire world) was sent into a tailspin early last month when the Barbie teaser trailer dropped and debuted a positively sparkling world consisting of perfectly arched doll feet and pink sand beaches. But, while the visuals were nothing short of mesmerising, there wasn’t a whole lot of information about what the upcoming blockbuster was actually about.
Fortunately, that’s all changed with the brand-spanking new drop of the full two-and-a-half-minute Barbie trailer today.
Watch the full trailer here and we will discuss below.
So, what will the Barbie movie be about, then?
The trailer starts off with Margot Robbie as Barbie living her best life in Barbie Land; she’s got her man Ken (played by Ryan Gosling) at her side, and a planned choreography dance party scheduled for the night ahead with all her Barbie friends.
However, disaster strikes when she begins to notice some unusual changes like her feet going flat and experiencing gravity for the first time. Shortly after, she’s informed that she will have to leave Barbie World and head into the real world AKA Earth.
She’s given a pair of Birkenstocks and her and Ken head off to the real world. Here, they face a myriad of problems that don’t exist in Barbie Land, and some clever humans cotton on to the fact that she’s a doll that’s come to life. Worried about the fallout from Barbie’s transition to earth, Will Ferrell’s character, who looks to be the supervillain in the movie, sends his team on a mission to get Barbie “back into a box”.
Who’s in the Barbie movie?
By now, it’s very well known that Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling are the two main characters in the film, and play Barbie and Ken respectfully. We’ve also touched on the fact that Will Ferrell has a large part.
However, they are far from the only big celebs in the blockbuster, we’ll also be seeing household names like Simu Liu, America Ferrera, Kate McKinnon, Michael Cera, Dua Lipa, and Helen Mirren, as well as a bunch of other huge stars.
When will the Barbie movie premiere?
Set your countdown apps people, because Barbie will be released in Australia on July 20, 2023.
