At the moment, the record messages about Barbie are coming to us at what feels like an hourly rate. Greta Gerwig’s film passed the $1 billion milestone at the global box office last weekend. But that’s not all, because this success has another for the studio Record broken by Harry Potter.
Barbie became a billionaire faster than Harry Potter
As reported by the New York Times, Barbie is the fastest new film to break the 1 billion box office mark of any Warner Bros. film. Only 17 days it takes after the theatrical release for this milestone.
Previously, this record was held in the Warner House by Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows 2. The fantasy series finale took 19 days to break $1 billion at the box office in 2011.
What about Barbie 2?
After all the success stories, a Barbie sequel is practically only a matter of time. Deals for Barbie 2 have not yet been signed by director Greta Gerwig or stars Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling.
Negotiations between the film crew and the studio will not be possible at the moment. Because of current double strikes of screenwriters and actors, Hollywood is at a standstill indefinitely.
