Greta Gerwig is a force to be reckoned with and her ambitious vision for Barbie has fans wanting to see more of that plastic world on screen.
Ryan Gosling jokes that Greta Gerwig really turned him into a doll for 'Barbie' 🤣
A year ago, the world experienced a once-in-a-lifetime phenomenon with the Barbenheimer event. 2023 brought people out of their homes in droves and into theaters for Greta Gerwig's neon funky Barbie and Christopher Nolan's disturbing Oppenheimer.
When all was said and done, the pair delivered a resounding commentary on modern society and its de-evolution, giving the audience something to think about. 13 months later, Greta Gerwig officially broke her silence by delivering a long-awaited update on the much-deserved sequel to the film, which turned a plastic doll into humanity's alarm clock.
Barbie was a certified success, both on paper and in reality. The dialogue surrounding the film before its release was filled with nervous whispers about the script's controversial gender politics, and its billion-dollar success proved to the industry that the masses were indeed hungry for an intelligent film. In fact, despite its $1.4 billion success at the box office [The Numbers], one movie just wasn't enough.
