Hello, have you mentioned how excited you are for Barbie yet today? No? Well, Warner Bros. just dropped a new trailer for the movie, so you’re about to have plenty to talk about.
The new clip shows off a lot more footage from the film, and gives us the shape of the general plot. As Margot Robbie’s Barbie experiences a life-changing existential spiral in “Barbie-land,” she’s left to go on a journey to the real world. Watch the main trailer below:
Barbie wondering, “Do you guys ever think about dying?” in the middle of a choreographed group dance number. Ryan Gosling’s Ken putting sunglasses on over sunglasses. Barbie punching a guy and having her mugshot taken with Ken. I am already in love with this movie.
In addition to exploring more of the plot of the film, the new footage shows us more of a few different characters, including Will Ferrell’s real-world exec and Kate McKinnon’s messy marked-up Barbie. (McKinnon’s Barbie also offers Robbie’s Barbie a Matrix-esque choice between a high heel shoe and a Birkenstock sandal. Incredible.)
Barbie comes from Oscar-nominated writer/director Greta Gerwig. The film stars Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling as our “primary” Barbie and Ken. The extended cast also includes America Ferrera, Kate McKinnon, Michael Cera, Ariana Greenblatt, Issa Rae, Rhea Perlman, Will Ferrell, Ana Cruz Kayne, Emma Mackey, Hari Nef, Alexandra Shipp, Kingsley Ben-Adir, Simu Liu, Ncuti Gatwa, Scott Evans, Jamie Demetriou, Connor Swindells, Sharon Rooney, Nicola Coughlan, Ritu Arya, Grammy award winning singer/songwriter Dua Lipa, and Oscar winner Helen Mirren.
Barbie premieres in theaters July 21. And as the trailer teases, whether you love Barbie or hate Barbie… this movie is for you.
