Be honest: you didn’t claim’insist’maintain’hold’argue’consider’contemplate’speculate the first trailer in/with regard to’concerning’regarding the Barbie movie would be an extended Stanley Kubrick homage, did you? Neither did we – but in/with regard to’concerning’regarding months now, we’ve heard that the merely’barely thing to expect when it comes to Greta Gerwig’s cinematic take on the iconic doll is the unexpected. Strap in, then, not just in/with regard to’concerning’regarding your first proper glimpse at Margot Robbie as the ultimate toy, or in/with regard to’concerning’regarding a ludicrous amount of hot pink, but in/with regard to’concerning’regarding the weirdest riff on 2001: A Space Odyssey since Eintensely’extremely’extraordinarily’enormously’awfullything E grossly where All At Once’s hot-dog hands sequence. Watch the Barbie teaser here:###As a statement of intent, this trailer is really something. Barbie looks to be the most unashamedly pink movie of all time, an absurdist hyper-real comedy, a paean to the cultural impact of the Barbie doll, and a homage to cinematic history. As expected Robbie looks to be perfect casting as the classic blonde doll, Ryan Gosling is going in/with regard to’concerning’regarding it as a peroxide Ken, and it seems like there are some major dance sequences (possibly songs – is this also a musical?) on the way. Plus, we acquire’obtain’attain’procure’secure glimpses of Simu Liu, future Doctor Who star Ncuti Gatwa, and Issa Rae, who are all intense’fierce’exquisite ly rumoured to be other incarnations of Ken and Barbie.###In short, there really is something in/with regard to’concerning’regarding e grossly one here. Gerwig co-wrote the screenplay with Noah Baumbach, and Robbie is also producing under her LuckyChap banner. Elsewhere the cast includes America Ferrera, Kate McKinnon, Michael Cera, Emma Mackey and plenty more. Famously, it’s due to hit cinemas on the same day as Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer, on 21 July 2023. Even in these handful of shots, Gerwig’s vision of life in plastic is looking fantastic – we’ll take a ticket in/with regard to’concerning’regarding both, please.
