Warner Bros. Pictures announced today that it will bring “Barbie,” 2023’s biggest film, back to the big screen for a special one-week engagement. Beginning Friday, January 26, audiences worldwide will have another opportunity to see the larger-than-life icon as brought to life by Oscar-nominated director Greta Gerwig and embodied by Oscar-nominated actress Margot Robbie in theaters once again. The announcement was made today by Jeff Goldstein, President, Domestic Distribution, and Andrew Cripps, President, International Distribution, Warner Bros. Pictures.

Since the film’s release last summer, “Barbie” and its cast and crew have garnered critical and commercial acclaim and numerous accolades, including two Golden Globe Awards and six Critics Choice Awards, a DGA Award nomination for Gerwig, a PGA Award nomination for Outstanding Producer of Theatrical Motion Pictures, and SAG Award nominations that include Best Cast in a Motion Picture, Best Female Actor in a Lead Role for Robbie, Best Male Actor in a Supporting Role for Ryan Gosling, and Best Stunt Ensemble. And with more than $1.446 billion at the global box office, audiences truly can’t get Kenough of the movie.

Goldstein and Cripps stated, “We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again, we’ve never seen anything like the absolute cultural phenomenon that is ‘Barbie.’ This masterful vision for Mattel’s doll could only have come from the creative minds of Greta Gerwig and Noah Baumbach, and in Greta’s hands, ‘Barbie’ became a must-go, must-see, must-wear-pink cinematic experience that was a brilliantly subversive commentary on our society, couched in an undeniably entertaining story. Greta and the film’s producers, artisans and cast, especially Margot Robbie, Ryan Gosling and America Ferrera, delivered a one-of-a-kind film that we know will be viewed and talked about for years to come. We’re proud to have it as part of the Warner library of classics, and are excited to give moviegoers another chance to experience ‘Barbie’ on the big screen.”

Tickets for “Barbie” go on sale next week.
