The box office is seeing a lot of pink these days as Barbie continues to dominate. This weekend, the film earned a staggering $127 million globally, bringing its total box office revenue to an astounding $1.031 billion just two weeks after its release. Internationally, it earned $74 million, a 41% decrease from the previous week. The film has accumulated a total of $572.1 million internationally. However, its domestic performance is even more impressive, with a total of $459.4 million, making it the main driver of its success.
Barbie’s reign at the domestic box office is undeniable. The film once again took the top spot, earning an impressive $53 million on its third weekend. This achievement is particularly notable considering the fierce competition from movies like Meg 2: The Trench, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem, and Oppenheimer, which battled for the second and third spots at the box office, respectively, with $30 million and $28.7 million in earnings.
Despite the tough competition, Barbie is expected to maintain its reign at the box office. Even with some challenges in its international release, the film has surpassed Gerwig’s own high expectations. The incredible success of Barbie has solidified Mattel’s shift towards entertainment, as they were already working on several other film projects based on toys and games.
Barbie was written by Gerwig and her partner Noah Baumbach, with Gerwig serving as the director. The film features a stellar cast including Margot Robbie, Ryan Gosling, America Ferrera, and Michael Cera. It is currently showing in theaters worldwide.
