The first images of the film “Barbie” are the buzz on social networks. On the latest, we see Ryan Gosling in Ken follower of apparent boxer shorts.
Scheduled for July 21, 2023the film Barbie is already well spoken of. However, of this feature film directed by Greta Gerwig, we do not know much except the five-star cast, composed among others ofEmma Mackey, Hari Nef, Issa Rae and Ncuti Gatwa. So why does the buzz keep getting bigger? Already, because this journey into the world of the most famous doll promises to be next summer’s event.
Then, because to make us wait, Barbie and Warner Bros (which produces the film) broadcast shots drop by drop on social networks. After Margot Robbie (who embodies Barbie) last April, it’s the turn of Ryan Gosling to appear as Ken on Instagram. The aesthetic: 100% American and 100% Barbie. Peroxidized blondness, perfectly white teeth, convertible cars and brushing want it, here you go. An irresistible retro universe.
Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling, Barbie and Ken more than perfect
If Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling make Barbie and Ken more than convincing, it’s because their costumes are chosen with care. Barbie is dressed in a blue and white smocked dress with a bare back accessorized with a maxi pearl bracelet and a polka dot headband in the same shades.
For his part, Ryan Gosling has the look of a star of 90s boy band. A sleeveless Levi’s denim jacket worn open over UV tanned chocolate bars, low-rise faded denim and white boxer shorts with “Ken” spelled out, as others read “Calvin Klein” . An effective teaser with plenty of commentary on the web. Welcome to the Barbie’s world.
