The new trailer for the Barbie movie offers a glimpse into the chaotic journey of Barbie and Ken as they leave their idealistic home of Barbieland and venture into the unpredictable real world. The teaser reveals that Barbie, played by Margot Robbie, grows disillusioned with her life in the toy world and seeks out new experiences, dragging Ken (Ryan Gosling) along for the ride.
Their exploration takes a wild turn when the pair get arrested in Venice Beach, following a humorous altercation involving a man slapping Barbie’s behind. Things quickly escalate as they are pursued by Will Ferrell’s character, the CEO of Mattel, and his team, setting off a thrilling chase sequence.
The teaser also highlights moments of playful absurdity, with Barbie pondering existential questions about life and death before being encouraged by another Barbie (played by Sharon Rooney) to head into the real world. There, Barbie is given a reality check by Kate McKinnon’s character, who contrasts the contrasting worlds of Barbie’s fantasy and reality using a high-heeled shoe and a Birkenstock sandal.
As the teaser unfolds, we see the duo face the consequences of their bold move, including prison time and even a medical mishap where Ken attempts an appendectomy. The film promises a blend of humour, adventure, and plenty of unexpected twists.
The Barbie soundtrack, set for release alongside the film on July 21, includes tracks from major artists like Lizzo, Nicki Minaj, and Dua Lipa, adding to the film’s excitement. The film, directed by Greta Gerwig, marks her first directorial project since her successful adaptation of Little Women. The ensemble cast also features stars such as Issa Rae, Simu Liu, and America Ferrera, making Barbie one of the most anticipated films of the year.
