Billie Eilish might have belted another hit with the Barbie soundtrack but looking back at her experience working on the same, the songstress reveals she was in a 'dark phase' of her life at the time. Ahead of the Golden Globes awards ceremony, Billie Eilish who has earned a Globes nod for “What Was I Made For” said that she wants to dedicate this song to anyone who “experiences hopelessness”.&nbsp;

Standing next to her brother and co-creator of the song Finneas O’Connell, Billie Eilish at the Palm Springs Convention Center said, “I would really like to say that this award and any recognition that this song gets, I just want to dedicate to anyone who experiences hopelessness, the feeling of existential dread and feeling like, what’s the point, why am I here and why am I doing this?”&nbsp;

“I think we all feel like that occasionally, but I think if somebody like me, with the amount of privilege that I have and the incredible things that I get to do and be and how I have really not wanted to be here … sorry to be dark, damn, but I’ve spent a lot of time feeling that way,” she added.&nbsp;

She also said, “I just want to say to anyone that feels that way, be patient with yourself and know that it is, I think, worth it all.”

Commenting on the time when she and Finneas worked on the Barbie song, Eilish said that she “was in a dark episode and things didn’t make sense in life. I just didn’t understand what the point was and why you would keep going. [I was] questioning everything in the world.”

She then recalled sitting and watching the film. After watching about 35 minutes of footage that Greta Gerwig (Barbie director) had compiled, the brother-sister duo sat down to write for the song. She added, “Basically I was just watching Barbie say and feel things that I really, really, really resonated with and felt so close to. I felt so seen, and I did not expect that. I think that this movie is the most incredible, most empowering beautiful funny, and just unbelievable piece of art in the world, and I’m so honored to be a part of it.”

Billie Eilish reveals she was in a 'dark phase' while creating Barbie hit song

Barbenheimer dominated Hollywood in 2023 and organisers of the newly reformed Golden Globes hope to cash in on the craze during the upcoming awards ceremony on Sunday.&nbsp; 
 
Kicking off prize-giving season from the usual swanky Beverly Hills ballroom at 5:00 pm, the Globes boast new owners and new voters -- and have plenty of box-office gold to toast. 
 
The show is expected to celebrate Barbie&nbsp;and Oppenheimer&nbsp;-- two movies that wowed critics and audiences alike when they were released simultaneously in the summer of 2023 and have a whopping 17 nominations between them. 
 
"They are so different than each other, yet they were both successful... We're thrilled that they're both very represented here," said this year's Globes producer Glenn Weiss. "It's been a big reset for the Globes," he told AFP. 
 
Greta Gerwig's Barbie is leading the nomination list with nine nods. The film took a clever satirical spin on the beloved doll's narrative and turned it into a story of female empowerment.&nbsp; 
 
It is tipped to win the Globes for Best Comedy Film and Best Screenplay and boasts three of the six contenders for Best Song. As the year's highest-grossing movie, it is also likely to claim a newly created award for box office achievement. 
 
Meanwhile, Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer -- the other half of last summer's viral cinematic phenomenon -- tells the story of the inventor of the atomic bomb and has eight nominations. 
 
The favourite to win awards for Best Drama Film, Best Director, and Best Score, Oppenheimer&nbsp;focuses on the rivalry between a brilliant scientist and a powerful politician, played by Cillian Murphy and Robert Downey Jr., respectively. 
 
They are strong contenders for best lead drama actor and supporting actor.

Party&nbsp;

The Globes -- which for decades have offered huge publicity and a timely boost to Oscars hopefuls -- will be under scrutiny as they aim to bounce back from years of declining audiences. The organisation has been accused of corruption and racism in the recent past and was even taken off air entirely in 2022.&nbsp; 
 
Since then, the rowdy, obscure group of Los Angeles-based foreign journalists that created the Globes 80 years ago has been disbanded, and a wider net of overseas critics was brought in to choose this year's winners.&nbsp;

Along with movie stars like Leonardo DiCaprio (Killers of the Flower Moon), nominees include big names from the world of music such as Billie Eilish and Dua Lipa -- both for Best Song -- and Taylor Swift for her recent concert movie.

Cooper eyes double Globes 
 
If Cillian Murphy misses out on Best Actor in a Drama, it will likely go&nbsp;to Bradley Cooper, who plays Leonard Bernstein in Maestro.

Cooper is also nominated for directing and would be the first person ever bestowed acting and directing gongs for the same movie.

Elsewhere, Indigenous actor Lily Gladstone is a firm favourite for lead drama actress in her role in Martin Scorsese's Killers of the Flower Moon, which has seven nominations overall. 
 
On the television side, Succession, The Bear and Beef are expected to dominate the drama, comedy and limited series categories, respectively. 
 
Comedian Jo Koy hosts the 81st Golden Globes, which air&nbsp;in the United States on CBS.

Greta Gerwig, the co-writer/director of Barbie, made a surprise appearance alongside old college friend and Barbie co-star Kate McKinnon. The duo took the stage to introduce musical guest Billie Eilish, who performed "What Was I Made For?" from the Barbie soundtrack.

This marks Eilish's third appearance on SNL, following her 2021 double duty as host and musical guest, where she showcased her talents as an Oscar and Grammy award winner.

"What Was I Made For?" co-written by Eilish and her brother Finneas, has already earned accolades at the Billboard Music Awards in the Favourite Movie Song category. The song's success continues with five Grammy nominations, including Record of the Year, Song of the Year, and Best Song Written for Visual Media.

In a recent Hollywood Reporter roundtable, Eilish revealed a battle with writer's block before composing the song. She shared, "I honestly was concerned that it was over for me. We’d been trying, and it wasn’t doing what it usually would do in me. I was honestly like, ‘Damn, maybe I hit my peak and I don’t know how to write anymore?’"

Meanwhile,&nbsp;Kate McKinnon, who departed the show last year, hosted SNL's final episode of 2023, which featured several alums including Kristen Wiig and Maya Rudolph. Taking over the Studio 8H stage, McKinnon said that it feels weird to come back to her "old job" and do the monologue. "I don’t really like to talk in my own voice. That’s kind of why I got into this racket in the first place," she stated.

The comedian also acknowledged the "big year" she has had after featuring as "weird Barbie" in Greta Gerwig's film. "I walked in on the first day and they were like, ‘Oh my God, you look perfect,’ and I was like, ‘These are my clothes'," she joked.

Barbie director Greta Gerwig makes surprise appearance on Saturday Night Live to introduce Billie Eilish

Timothée Chalamet, actor best known for Dune and Wonka, was on the verge of making a playful entrance into the world of Barbie alongside director Greta Gerwig and Lady Bird star Saoirse Ronan. Unfortunately, scheduling conflicts dashed this potential reunion, leaving fans to wonder what roles Chalamet and Ronan might have played in the blockbuster movie.

During a recent interview on The Tonight Show, Chalamet disclosed that he and Ronan had been slated for a special cameo in the film, but the details of their roles remained a tantalising mystery. “There was an idea for Saoirse Ronan and I to do a cameo in it,” Chalamet revealed and added, “I don’t know what the cameo would’ve been. I think it would’ve been one of the rejected Kens or Barbies. Not Alan! Maybe there was a reject French one along the way.”

<div class="videoWrapper trancodeVideo"><iframe allowfullscreen="" autoplay="1" class="includeVideo" frameborder="0" height="350" src="https://www.wionews.com/videos/critically-speaking-margot-robbies-barbie-is-funny-and-clever-618237/embed" style="width:100%;max-width:560px;" width="560"></iframe></div>

Despite missing out on the chance to showcase their camaraderie onscreen, Chalamet managed to visit the set of Barbie while shooting his upcoming musical, Wonka, on the same Warner Bros UK lot.&nbsp;

“Although Timothée did come by the set and then said, ‘I should have been in this,’ And I was like, ‘I know! Why aren’t you in this?’” said Gerwig.

The original plan, as Gerwig revealed in an earlier interview, was for Chalamet and Ronan to make "speciality cameos" in the film. These cameos, however, never materialised due to the hectic schedules of the two actors. Ronan, busy with filming and producing The Outrun, found it impossible to carve out time for her Barbie moment.&nbsp;

Chalamet and Ronan weren't the only ones unable to squeeze Barbie into their calendars. The film's casting struggles were highlighted when casting directors unveiled that Bowen Yang, Dan Levy, and Ben Platt were all considered for Ken's role but had to bow out due to scheduling conflicts. Jonathan Groff also flirted with the role of Ken's friend Allan before Michael Cera eventually stepped in.

Greta Gerwig, reflecting on the missed opportunity, shared, “It felt like doing something without my children. I mean, I’m not their mom, but I sort of feel like their mom.”&nbsp;

Timothée Chalamet on his axed Barbie cameo: Maybe there was a reject French version

Toy company Mattel is set to bring its popular American Girl doll line to the big screen with a live-action film. The announcement follows the success of the Barbie movie, which grossed over a billion dollars at the worldwide box office.

Lindsey Anderson Beer, known for her work on Sierra Burgess is a Loser and Pet Sematary: Bloodlines, will produce and write the screenplay for the American Girl doll movie. In a recent statement, Anderson Beer expressed her personal connection to the brand, stating, "Growing up, my sister and I were American Girl girls. They didn't feel like dolls to play with, rather real people whose worlds we got to imagine ourselves in."

The American Girl dolls, introduced in 1986, are 18-inch dolls with names and backstories released simultaneously as novels. The dolls, such as Kirsten and Molly, represent historical periods and diverse backgrounds. Kirsten, for example, is a Swedish immigrant in 1854 Minnesota, while Molly lived in Jefferson, Illinois, during World War II.

With more than 36 million dolls sold since its launch, the American Girl brand has expanded to include contemporary characters and dolls from various points in American history. The upcoming movie will be produced by Mattel Films, Paramount Pictures, and Temple Hill Entertainment.

Mattel Films is actively working on live-action films for several of its brands, including Barney, Hot Wheels, Polly Pocket, Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots, Thomas &amp; Friends, and Wishbone. The American Girl doll movie marks another venture for the company into cinematic storytelling.

This isn't the first time American Girl has made its way to screens. Previous made-for-TV and streaming offerings have explored both historical characters and contemporary Girl of the Year dolls. The 2008 theatrical release, Kit Kittredge: An American Girl, focused on the Great Depression-era doll.

Golden Globe nominations 2024 full list: Barbenheimer, Succession get multiple nods

Barbie&nbsp;and Oppenheimer&nbsp;-- the unlikely pair of films that dominated the box office and spawned countless internet memes this summer -- are expected to lead the newly revamped Golden Globes when nominations are unveiled Monday.

Collectively dubbed Barbenheimer&nbsp;after their theatrical releases happened to fall on the same date, both movies are likely to score highly with voters for the Globes, which kick off Hollywood's film awards season.

Barbie&nbsp;-- a vivid, feminist satire about the all-conquering line of plastic dolls -- was 2023's top-grossing movie, earning more than $1.4 billion globally. It is tipped to earn nods for its stars Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling, as well as writer-director Greta Gerwig.

Oppenheimer,&nbsp;Christopher Nolan's critically adored drama about the inventor of the nuclear bomb, managed a remarkable $950 million at the box office worldwide.&nbsp;

It should rack up nominations for cast members including Cillian Murphy and Robert Downey Jr, as well as its director.

Organizers of the Globes will hope that the enduring hype and attention surrounding Barbenheimer,&nbsp;as well as other popular and acclaimed films such as Killers of the Flower Moon&nbsp;and Poor Things,&nbsp;can shift the focus away from the gala's recent notoriety.

The Golden Globes have endured a rough few years after a Los Angeles Times expose in 2021 showed that the awards' voting body -- the Hollywood Foreign Press Association -- had no Black members.

That revelation triggered the airing of a wide range of other long-simmering criticisms about the HFPA, including allegations of amateurism and corruption.

Earlier this year, the awards' assets and trademarks were purchased and overhauled by a group of private investors including US billionaire Todd Boehly, and the HFPA was disbanded.&nbsp;

Hollywood-based former HFPA members have been banned from accepting gifts, and will now be paid a salary to vote for their favourite films and shows, while more than 200 non-members (and unpaid) voters from around the world have been added to the Globes mix.

- 'Box office' -

Cedric The Entertainer&nbsp;and Wilmer Valderrama&nbsp;will announce the Globes nominees on "CBS Mornings" from 1330 GMT.

One of the United States' biggest national television networks, CBS has stepped in to become the new home of the Globes, after long-standing host NBC ended its deal to broadcast the event.

CBS bosses will be hoping for vastly improved ratings, after the 2023 Globes slumped to a new low of just 6.3 million viewers, even as other shows such as the Oscars recovered from pandemic viewership nadirs.

A new category for "best cinematic or box office achievement" has been added, paving the way for nominations for popular films that would not usually earn critical recognition, such as Universal's $1.3 billion-grossing The Super Mario Bros. Movie.&nbsp;and Marvel superhero film Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 3.

In another seeming bid to honour more household names, the number of nominees in each category has been increased.

A-listers such as Leonardo DiCaprio -- the star of Martin Scorsese's crime epic Killers of the Flower Moon&nbsp;-- and Emma Stone for her turn in the female Frankenstein-esque drama Poor Things&nbsp;are also widely expected to score nominations.

Others likely to feature are Paul Giamatti (The Holdovers), Bradley Cooper (Maestro), Timothee Chalamet (Wonka) and Natalie Portman (May December.)

The Globes also honour television, with dramas Succession&nbsp;and The Last Of Us&nbsp;likely to rack up nods, alongside comedies "The Bear" and "Ted Lasso."&nbsp;

The 81st&nbsp;Golden Globes ceremony will take place in Beverly Hills on January 7.

Barbenheimer tipped to dominate revamped Golden Globes nominations

Greta Gerwig, the director behind the recent box office hit Barbie, has sparked speculation about the possibility of a spinoff centred around the character Ken. In a recent interview with Sharyn Alfonsi on 60 Minutes, Gerwig was asked about the potential for a Ken-centric movie following the success of Barbie.

Gerwig remained noncommittal in her response, stating, "I mean, the truth is, you know…I guess we’ll see." Despite the ambiguity, her statement has left fans curious about the prospect of expanding the Barbie cinematic universe.

The idea of a Ken spinoff gained traction when Gerwig revealed that there was a surplus of material created for the character that didn't make it into the final script of Barbie. She mentioned, "We had way too much material for Ken. We would write, and write, and write," hinting at untapped potential for further exploration.

<div class="videoWrapper trancodeVideo"><iframe allowfullscreen="" autoplay="1" class="includeVideo" frameborder="0" height="350" src="https://www.wionews.com/videos/critically-speaking-margot-robbies-barbie-is-funny-and-clever-618237/embed" style="width:100%;max-width:560px;" width="560"></iframe></div>

Ryan Gosling, who portrayed Ken in Barbie, was not initially part of the plan before Gerwig was recruited to helm the project. Gerwig, however, admitted to writing the role with Gosling in mind before meeting him. The unexpected success of their on-screen chemistry raises the question of whether a standalone Ken movie could be in the works.

Margot Robbie, who played Barbie and served as an executive producer, seemed to downplay the likelihood of a sequel during an Associated Press interview. She stated, "I think we put everything into this one. We didn’t build it to be a trilogy or something."

As Barbie&nbsp;prepares for its streaming release on December 15, fans are left wondering about the future of the Barbie cinematic universe.&nbsp;

WION's review of Barbie, written by Shomini Sen, read: ''I would still say that the film very smartly shows how society is and humanises the iconic doll. For decades Barbie has been one of the most popular toys for young girls, setting unrealistic standards of beauty. Sure, Mattel has reinvented the doll and made every girl believe that they can be whatever they want to be - just like their favourite doll, but the narrative of everything being overtly perfect has also done damage to several. Greta, in that sense, spins the narrative and adds a layer of cynicism to Barbie land to show how things are in real. Flawed, depressed, and definitely not perfect- even though the plastic remains constant.''&nbsp;

Barbie Cinematic Universe? Greta Gerwig addresses potential Ken movie spinoff

You never know how things take a turn in the world of films but if there was something that Margot Robbie of Barbie was sure of, it was her faith in her film. Margot recently revealed that she was once engaged in an interaction with a producer who was backing Oppenheimer and that he told her that they should move their film, Barbie, to another date to avoid a clash with Christopher Nolan's directorial.&nbsp;

This revelation was made by Margot Robbie to Oppenheimer actor Cillian Murphy during a Variety’s ‘Actors on Actors,’ conversation presented by AIR. She revealed that she once got a call from Oppenheimer producer Charles Roven in which he asked her to change the Barbie release date so that it avoids a clash with Oppenheimer. She said, “One of your producers, Chuck Roven, called me because we worked together on some other projects. And he was like, ‘I think you guys should move your date.’ And I was like, ‘We’re not moving our date. If you’re scared to be up against us, then you move your date.’ And he’s like, ‘We’re not moving our date. I just think it’d be better for you to move.’ And I was like, ‘We’re not moving!'”

Both Greta Gerwig’s Barbie and Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer opened on the same day worldwide.&nbsp;

Margot Robbie also added in the chat that she thought that Oppenheimer and Barbie were a “really great pairing,” which is why she didn’t want to delay her film’s release date.

“It’s a perfect double billing…Clearly, the world agreed. Thank God,” Robbie added. “The fact that people were going and being like, ‘Oh, watch “Oppenheimer” first, then “Barbie.”‘ I was like, ‘See? People like everything.’ People are weird…I think they were also really excited by the filmmakers. People were itching for the next Chris Nolan film and itching for the next Greta Gerwig film. To get them at the same time was exciting.”

As the films were released together, they became a huge deal at the box office. So much so that people started calling it the 'Barbenheimer'&nbsp;as it opened up the theatres in the post-pandemic world like never before.&nbsp;

“As a kid I just wanted to play and tell stories and make them kiss. They were my opportunity to play God — Barbies were the Sims for me before I played the Sims.”&nbsp;

Rae also discussed the awareness she had as a child regarding societal expectations related to femininity and race, recalling the pressure associated with playing with predominantly white Barbie dolls.

In India, a curious phenomenon is unfolding as the clash of the titans, Barbie vs Oppenheimer, captivates audiences. With their strikingly different genres, the showdown at the box office has intrigued moviegoers. Many of them are 14 to 22 year old young boys who line up for tickets to watch Oppenheimer.

'Barbenheimer': An actual movie that marries plots of both films

Barbenheimer is not just a term to hype two big releases that took place earlier this year but is now the title of an upcoming film. Many would recall that the term was coined in July this year when big-ticket films Barbie and Oppenheimer were released on the same day worldwide. The term was a marketing gimmick to promote both films and encourage viewers to watch both films.&nbsp; 
 
Now a report in The Hollywood Reporter states that B-movie icon Charles Band is making a movie on the same title with dolls and bombs beings the key plot points.&nbsp; 
 
What is Barbenheimer the film about? 
 
Charles Band has detailed the plot of Barbenheimer, in which a scientist doll called Dr Bambi J Barbenheimer, living in the doll town Dolltopia, is bothered by how humans treat the dolls. So she goes on a mission to destroy the real world with a giant nuclear bomb. The synopsis of Barbenheimer states, “They got great looks and a super attitude! Oh, and now they’ve got the bomb.” 
 
Charles, while speaking to the publication, admitted that he was cashing in on the Barbie-Oppenheimer clash and the numerous memes and social media chatter that followed.&nbsp; 
 
“But it’s also an opportunity to have fun with the bizarre coupling of these two movies and the combination of Barbie’s vibe and the darkness of Oppenheimer. You mix that together and you have such an opportunity for dark humour,” Charles said. “It seems like every other feature is dark and depressing, and it’s like, God, we need a little humour going into 2024,” he added.

Charles Band is best known for his 1985 cult classic Re-Animator.

Barbenheimer clash&nbsp; 
 
Two strikingly different films clashed at the box office in July 2023. Greta Gerwig's Barbie is based on the iconic doll and Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer is based on American scientist Robert Oppenheimer. Barbie went on to earn $1 billion at the global office. Oppenheimer fared decently at the box office. Both films earned critical acclaim.&nbsp;

Barbenheimer movie is in the works, plot involves dolls and nuclear bombs

Generic ghosts and vague vampires haunted the Hollywood picket lines this Halloween, as striking actors tried to scare studio bosses by refusing to dress up as any of their famous characters.

With talks still ongoing between the Screen Actors Guild (SAG-AFTRA) and the likes of Netflix and Disney, costumes that could be seen to promote lucrative film figures like Barbie -- or even Oppenheimer -- have been declared off-limits this spooky season.

"Let's use our collective power to send a loud and clear message to our struck employers that we will not promote their content without a fair contract!" said a recent SAG-AFTRA online post.

On Tuesday, actors marching outside Netflix, Sony, Amazon and Paramount's Los Angeles offices had taken that advice to heart, with cats, bats and a dancing frog replacing the usual cast of superhero and sexy villain costumes beloved in the US entertainment capital.

Halloween hits Hollywood strike as actors boycott Barbie costumes

Greta Gerwig's Barbie not only dominated the box office records but also created a major furore on social media. Among many things, Ryan Gosling's ''I'm Just Ken'' achieved extraordinary attention and praise from the audience. But what if we told you that the song was about to get nixed from the movie? 
 
Director Greta Gerwig has recently revealed that she tried really hard to keep the viral musical in the film. 
 
During her screen talk at the BFI London Film Festival, Greta revealed that she was asked, ''What is the dream ballet?'' in the middle of the big meeting.

<a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/terence-davies-filmmaker-of-the-lyrical-distant-voices-still-lives-dies-at-77-644400">Terence Davies, filmmaker of the lyrical Distant Voices, Still Lives, dies at 77</a>

While chatting to Succession&nbsp;creator Jesse Armstrong, Greta added, “It just said in the script, ‘And then it becomes a dream ballet and they work it out through dance.'”&nbsp;

She added further, “There was a big meeting that was like, ‘Do you need this?’ And I was like, ‘Everything in me needs this.’ They were like, ‘What do you even mean? What is a dream ballet?’ And I was like, ‘A dream ballet? Where do I begin!'”

“I was like, if people could follow that in ''Singing in the Rain,''&nbsp;I think we’ll be fine. I think people will know what this is. So that was the big reference point,” she said. “Even though everything felt right to me and was giving me so much joy in the way we were doing it, it was also like, ‘Oh no, this could be just terrible, but now I’m committed.'”

Gerwig's decision to keep her dream ballet ''I'm Just Ken'' was apparently correct, as the song&nbsp;and the epic face-off between Ryan and Simu Liu's character went on to become one of the&nbsp;film's major takeaways. 
 
Despite the tough competition from Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer,&nbsp;Margot Robbie-starrer went on to become a major hit. The film has achieved a historic milestone by surpassing the $1.342 billion global earnings of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows — Part 2, becoming the highest-grossing film in Warner Bros' history.&nbsp;

Additionally, Barbie has overtaken The Super Mario Bros. Movie as the top-grossing title of 2023 in North America.

Did you know Ryan Gosling's 'I'm Just Ken' song was about to get nixed from Barbie?

Warner&nbsp;Bros Discovery on Thursday said it planned to expand production capacity at its Leavesden studios near London by more than 50%, adding 10 new sound stages to the facility where much of the Barbie&nbsp;blockbuster and HBO's House of the Dragon&nbsp;were filmed.

The project, announced during a visit to Los Angeles by British Finance Minister Jeremy Hunt, is expected to create some 4,000 direct and indirect jobs, the company said in a statement.

Hunt told Reuters in a telephone interview that the investment would total 245 million pounds ($301 million).

Warner&nbsp;Bros said it would increase the value of Leavesden's annual film and television production by 200 million pounds ($245.9 million), bringing it to 600 million pounds ($737.6 million) a year,&nbsp;Warner&nbsp;Bros Discovery said.

The investment comes as&nbsp;Warner&nbsp;Bros Discovery's California production has been hit with the first joint strike&nbsp;of writers&nbsp;and actors&nbsp;in 63 years, delaying major projects and prompting it to slash revenue forecasts for the rest of this year.

The Leavesden project's construction is due to start in the second quarter of 2024, with completion in 2027 and will bring the facility's total stages to 29 from 19 currently.

Hunt said the Leavesden project "is a huge vote of confidence in the UK" and will benefit from longstanding British tax breaks for local film and television production.

"The UK ambition is to be the world's next Silicon Valley, and we think we're already Europe's technology and entertainment hub. And this is another step towards that," he said.

Warner Bros to expand British studios' production capacity by over 50%

Forget The Avengers, there’s another record-breaker in the market and it’s none other than Barbie. The Greta Gerwig directorial has now overtaken the Marvel film as the 11th-highest-grossing release in history. The film has generated $626 million at the domestic box office and is not ready to pause this massive run at the world box office.&nbsp;

In order to make it to the top 10, Barbie will need to displace 2015 starrer Jurassic World which is currently at number 10 with $653 million. On number 9 is Titanic with $674 million. On 7 and 8 are Avatar: The Way of Water and Avengers: Infinity War. None of these ticket sales were adjusted for inflation.

Meanwhile, Ryan Gosling and Margot Robbie starrer is already the highest-grossing domestic release of 2023.

The film has earned $1.4 billion globally and surpassed The Super Mario Bros. Movie ($1.35 billion) as the biggest worldwide release of 2023.

Ever since the film was released in July, Barbie has had a dream run. It remained the No. 1 movie for four consecutive weekends and in the top five for more than two months. Barbie has Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling play the stereotypical versions of Barbie and Ken, who leave behind their perfect reality to confront the highs and lows of life in the real world.&nbsp;

Barbie now on its way to displace Jurassic World to enter top 10 highest-grossing films ever

After wooing fans in theatres, Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling’s multi-starrer film Barbie is finally set to land on home theatres. The Greta Gerwig directorial that stars Margot as Barbie and Ryan as Ken, based on Mattel’s popular dolls, helped boost the economy both in the country and worldwide. After establishing its dominance in the weeks that followed its theatrical release, Barbie&nbsp;will be made available for those who couldn’t watch it in theatres. The studio will now make the film available to buy on&nbsp;DVD, Blu-ray and digital 4K UHD on Feb. 29, 2024.

<h2>Follow Barbie from Barbieland to the Real World</h2>

For the unversed, Barbie follows the lives of Barbie and Ken as they step out of their Barbieland and tread into the real world which is full of its flaws and blemishes. How they cope with the real world vs. their plastic world, how they accept that transition, and what that journey evokes in them – is the crux of the film. Barbie also stars Kate McKinnon, Issa Rae, Simu Liu, Kingsley Ben-Adir, Ncuti Gatwa, Alexandra Shipp, Emma Mackey, Hari Nef, Dua Lipa, Ritu Arya, Michael Cera and Emerald Fennell as Mattel dolls in the flesh and America Ferrera, Ariana Greenblatt and Will Ferrell as humans, with Helen Mirren serving as narrator.

Subscribers of Amazon’s Prime or Prime Video services can watch Barbie for free when they sign up for the Max channel, which has a seven-day trial. After the first week, you will have to buy the membership.&nbsp;

WION E-Club: Barbie vs Oppenheimer: The ultimate box-office clash

Barbie has secured yet another box office landmark as it surpassed the eighth Harry Potter film to become Warner Bros.’ most successful worldwide release ever.

Barbie beats final Harry Potter film in impressive new box office record

There is just no stopping Barbie. More than a month after its release, the Greta Gerwig directorial is still breaking box office records. Now, the Margot Robbie-starrer has achieved a historic milestone by surpassing the $1.342 billion global earnings of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows — Part 2, securing its position as the highest-grossing film in Warner Bros' history. The film's domestic earnings have reached an impressive $592.8 million, with an additional $745.5 million collected from international markets. Barbie recently surpassed Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight as Warner Bros' biggest earner at the domestic box office.&nbsp;

Adding to an already big list of accomplishments, Barbie has overtaken The Super Mario Bros. Movie as the top-grossing title of 2023 in North America. With this trajectory, it's poised to outshine the global earnings of the same movie.

Looking ahead, Barbie has set its sights on an even loftier achievement: Surpassing the worldwide earnings of Frozen II,&nbsp;which stands at an impressive $1.43 billion. If successful, Barbie will carve out a place as the highest-grossing movie directed by a woman, animated or live-action.

WION's Shomini Sen wrote in her review of Barbie, "I would still say that the film very smartly shows how society is and humanises the iconic doll. For decades Barbie has been one of the most popular toys for young girls, setting unrealistic standards of beauty. Sure, Mattel has reinvented the doll and made every girl believe that they can be whatever they want to be - just like their favourite doll, but the narrative of everything being overtly perfect has also done damage to several. Greta, in that sense, spins the narrative and adds a layer of cynicism to Barbieland to show how things are in real. Flawed, depressed, and definitely not perfect- even though the plastic remains constant."
