Barbie (12A) (AD)

Barbie gets ready at her dresser in Barbieland

Hi Barbie!

The film we have all been waiting for...

Margot Robbie is Barbie.

Nominated for 8 Oscars, including Best Picture.

Directed by Greta Gerwig, co-written with Noah Baumbach (nominated for Best Writing [Adapted Screenplay]), and starring, well, everybody, Barbie brings to life the doll of our childhoods, the perfect woman: Barbie.

The plot, which has been kept perfectly under wraps in a sealed plastic container, follows Barbie as she realises life in Barbieland is not as perfect as it seems. Not even a dreamhouse can fix an existential crisis.

Bye Barbie!

Starring: Margot Robbie, Ryan Gosling (nominated for Best Supporting Actor), Helen Mirren, Dua Lipa, Will Ferrell, Michael Cera, John Cena, America Ferrera (nominated for Best Supporting Actress), Ncuti Gatwa, Connor Swindells. (We told you it was everybody!)
