The film's success is a testament to the popularity of the Barbie brand, as well as the star power of Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling.


The film's opening weekend also comes at a time when the box office is starting to recover from the pandemic. In the past two weeks, several other films have also had successful opening weekends, including Top Gun: Maverick and Jurassic World Dominion.
