The movie "Barbie" is the biggest film of the year. It has broken box office records. One of these is making the most money for a non-superhero movie. Ticket sales worldwide were over $356 million. "Barbie" also made the most money for a movie made by a female director. It was directed by Greta Gerwig. She also directed the indie films "Lady Bird" and "Little Women". She also co-wrote "Barbie". There will be sequels to the movie, so fans should get ready for "Barbie 2" and "Barbie 3". There may also be a movie that focuses on Barbie's friend Ken.
Barbie started as a fashion doll, created by American businesswoman Ruth Handler. The toy company Mattel launched the doll in 1959. It became one of the best-selling toys ever made, selling over a billion dolls worldwide. Since the 1980s, Barbie has starred in video games, animated movies and TV series. In Gerwig's film, Barbie leaves her near-perfect animated world of Barbieland to live in the human world. Movie experts say it is refreshing that "Barbie" is so original. Many people are getting tired of the endless releases of superhero films.
