Greta Gerwig

Sorry, there's absolutely no way your secret Santa is going to get you a better gift than the one Greta Gerwig and Warner Bros. got us this holiday season: ...

Gosling’s Ken follows her, as does Will Ferrell as the Mattel CEO, trying to get Barbie back where she belongs. We know it follows Barbie as she leaves her world to enter into ours and experience life as a real woman. Now, we finally have (a bit of) an answer. We see a glimpse of what could only be Barbie World, as well as Ryan Gosling giving his best blue steel as Ken. Issa Rae fist pumps into the air, and Simu Liu dances in a void. A voiceover comes in, saying, “Since the beginning of time, since the first little girl ever existed, there have been...dolls.” We see shots of modernly dressed girls playing with baby dolls as Richard Strauss’ “Sunrise,” used in 2001: A Space Odyssey, begins playing.

Anticipation for the Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling film just went up even higher.

(When a last doll is tossed in the air, instead of cutting to a rotating spaceship a la Kubrick, the trailer cuts to the gleaming Barbie logo.) Prior to Barbie’s release, Robbie will appear in Damien Chazelle’s Babylon, and Wes Anderson’s Asteroid City. After this spot-on parody, we get a few rapid-fire clips from the actual film, including fleeting shots of fellow dolls played by Ryan Gosling, Simu Liu, and Issa Rae.. The minute-long clip is an homage to 2001: A Space Oddysey’s opening sequence, in which apes discover the monolith. We finally have our first look with a

Maybe you've seen the leaked photos of Ryan Gosling in an incredibly neon outfit, or the image of Margot Robbie in Barbie's pink car.

The smashing of the baby dolls! The children! The sunset!

Barbie teaser: Actor Margot Robbie is the iconic and cheeky American doll in Greta Gerwig's take on the popular toy. Watch. | Hollywood.

Several animated versions of Barbie have released on video and television before. Margot can be seen surveying the different 'dollhouses' in Barbie land, all of which are pink or purple in their colour schemes. Simu is dressed in all black while dancing, while Issa Rae is spotted in a pink jumpsuit. The music from Stanley Kubrick's 2001 A Space Odyssey soundtrack ushers in the entrance of the giant doll, Barbie, who is definitely not a baby. [Greta Gerwig](https://www.hindustantimes.com/topic/greta-gerwig)'s Barbie, released on Friday, introduces [Margot Robbie](https://www.hindustantimes.com/topic/margot-robbie) as the popular and iconic American doll. The little girls are awestruck around her and throw their own baby dolls away, some even smashing theirs to pieces. Dressed in a black-and-white striped swimsuit and black high heels, this new doll is sexy. But the dolls were always and forever baby dolls.
