Warner Bros. Is Pretty Sure Barbie 2 Isn’t Happening Yet
It seems like the world has moved on to “Glicked” (or whatever the next big thing is), but the reverberations of Barbie’s massive box-office success still linger. The billion-dollar hit, directed by Greta Gerwig and starring Margot Robbie as Barbie, took home a slew of Oscars, including Best Picture. However, it appears that there won’t be a sequel in the near future.
Despite this, rumors have already begun to circulate about Barbie 2, with sources claiming that Gerwig and co-writer Noah Baumbach have “hatched an idea for the sequel” and are currently discussing it with Warner Bros. However, both Gerwig’s representative and Warner Bros. themselves have denied these reports, stating there is no legitimacy to this reporting.
For now, fans will just have to continue speculating about the potential of Barbie 2. It remains unclear whether any members of the original cast, including Ryan Gosling as Ken, would return in a sequel or if it would feature an entirely new storyline.
It’s worth noting that, even without a direct sequel, the impact of Barbie on popular culture is undeniable. The film’s influence can be seen across various forms of media and entertainment.
In related news, Zack Snyder has spoken out about his recent controversy surrounding comparisons between his own work, such as Justice League and Watchmen, to the 2023 film Barbie. He still believes that theaters are crucial for cultural impact.
