'Barbie' is currently the 16th-biggest film in worldwide box office history.
The Big Picture Even after more than a month in theaters, Barbie is continuing to break records at the worldwide box office. It passed The Super Mario Bros. Movie to become the year’s biggest film domestically some days ago, and is on the verge of repeating the feat globally as well. Super Mario concluded its theatrical run with $574 million at the domestic box office, which Barbie surpassed on Wednesday.
The film is in a tight race with the debutante Gran Turismo: Based on a True Story at the box office this weekend, and the final results will become clear only on Monday, once Sunday's wildcard National Cinema Day figures are taken into account. It remains to be seen how deeply the film's impending digital release will impact its theatrical performance in the coming weeks, but considering just how wonderfully it has performed so far, a sudden drop-off would be unexpected.
Barbie went on to gross $93 million in its second weekend, $53 million in its third weekend, $33 million in its fourth weekend, $21 million in its fifth weekend, and an estimated $15 million in its sixth weekend. It topped the weekend box office four times in a row and finished at the number one spot 28 days straight before being dethroned by last week’s debutante, Blue Beetle.
Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling Win Big With 'Barbie' This is an incredible feat for everybody involved, including Gerwig, who has methodically worked her way up the Hollywood ladder to become a part of the A-list, as well as stars Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling. The movie also features America Ferrera, Issa Rae, Simu Liu, Michael Cera, Kate McKinnon, Will Ferrell, and others. You can watch our interview with Gerwig here, and stay tuned to Collider for more updates.
