Margot Robbie as Barbie.
“Barbie”, the Greta Gerwig film inspired by the plastic doll of the same name, became the highest-grossing film in the history of Warner Bros. this Monday, surpassing with 1,342 million dollars (about 1,240 million euros) at the box office “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2”, according to information from the Box Mojo Office page.
The title of the most lucrative film from the studios had been held until then by the film starring Daniel Radcliffe, which managed to collect 1,341 million dollars during 25 weeks in 2011.
Now it is expected that for Wednesday or Thursday of this week “Barbie” will become the thirteenth film in history that exceeds 600 million dollars in revenue in the United States.
The film starring Margot Robbie as Barbie and Ryan Gosling as Ken has broken other records before, such as the most lucrative solo film directed by a woman in history.
Last week, Barbie surpassed “Super Mario Bros. The Movie” at the domestic box office to become the highest-grossing title of 2023 in North America.
It is also expected to become the highest grossing film of the year worldwide and for this it would have to exceed the 1.360 million dollars made by the film based on the Nintendo character.
The last step for the film to be crowned as the most lucrative of all time directed by a woman, would be to exceed the 1,430 million dollars that “Frozen II”, the film directed by Jennifer Lee and Chris Buck, collected. EFE
