Barbie and Ken go global

Through a video shared on official social media accounts, the actors revealed their intention to embark on a tour across eight of the world’s most significant cities. This exciting journey will take them through Canada, Mexico City, New York, Los Angeles, London, Berlin, and Seoul.

As we enter July, the tour has begun and the timing of it aligns perfectly with the scheduled release of the expected blockbuster, which as well as starring Robbie is also produced by her, from July 20. The anticipation is palpable, and fans eagerly await the chance to catch a glimpse of their favorite stars promoting this exciting Barbie adventure.

Barbie, directed by Greta Gerwig, and Christopher Nolan’s ‘Oppenheimer’ have generated immense interest and both movies are set to grace the big screen within a mere day of each other. Greta Gerwig earned Academy Award nominations in 2018 for Best Directing and Best Original Screenplay for her film ‘Lady Bird’. She also directed the captivating adaptation of ‘Little Women’, featuring the talents of Florence Pugh and Saoirse Ronan.

Now, turning our attention to the star-studded cast of Barbie, it boasts an enviable ensemble. As well as A-listers Robbie and Gosling, there are also roles for Will Ferrell, America Ferrera, Helen Mirren, Dua Lipa, Emma Mackey, Kate McKinnon and Nicola Coughlan, adding to the film’s allure even for those of more advanced years.

Why has Barbie been banned in Vietnam?

You may have heard that the new movie has been banned in Vietnam, and wondering why a kids-focused adventure could have caused this reaction. Well, the answer lies in the detail of a map.

In one of the scenes a very child-like map is shown which includes the South China Sea and what is known as the “nine dash line” which is disputed in Vietnam. The following news clip explains more.

What’s the Barbie music playlist?

And as if the cast and direction weren’t enticing enough, the film’s soundtrack is set to be a standout feature in its own right. Boasting an eclectic mix of musical talents, including Dua Lipa, Karol G, Lizzo, Fifty Fifty, and even Gosling himself, the film’s soundtrack is destined to captivate audiences and is worthy of gracing any esteemed festival.

We all know that the plot of this summer's Barbie movie (in theaters July 21) revolves around Barbie and Ken swapping Barbie's Dreamhouse for the real world. (Although, if we're honest, we'd love to swap our world for Barbieland for a bit). And thanks to the newest announcement from Barbie the Movie 's Instagram, Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling (who play Barbie and Ken, respectively) will be taking a trip around our world, just like their characters.

See on Instagram

"You don't have to go all the way to Barbieland to hang with Barbie and Ken," Robbie says in the promo.

"Margot and I are taking this show on the road," Gosling adds.

The film hits theaters on July 21, but the Barbie team is doing more than just one big premiere — they're doing eight premieres. Films often host premieres in different countries, allowing fans all over the world to be a part of the experience. And Barbie the Movie is no different.

Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling will embark on a world tour that, in addition to the usual New York City and Los Angeles, includes six more cities:

  • Toronto, Canada
  • Sydney, Australia
  • Seoul, South Korea
  • Mexico City, Mexico
  • London, England
  • Berlin, Germany

Not only does the promo give us that exciting news, but it also features some amazing fashion choices, just like we've seen throughout the entire promotional process. From CinemaCon to showing the cast their own IRL Barbie dolls , the fashion choices have put creativity at the forefront. Well, creativity and pink, of course.

We're obsessed with Robbie's corset and mini skirt (a combo fit for a Barbie doll if you ask us). Gosling is also rocking pink, just a more laidback salmon that will definitely influence our next swimsuit cover up purchase.

And, just like us, the pair also has their summer packing list top of mind: "Are you packing your roller blades?" Robbie asks, to which Gosling gives her a smirk. "You know I can't roller blade in real life."

Are you excited for the Barbie world tour? Tag us with your predictions for the movie on Twitter and Facebook .

We’re living in the age of “ Barbie ,” and nowhere has that been more evident than the custom fashions Margot Robbie and stylist Andrew Mukamal curated for the billion-dollar grossing movie’s press tour.

Since debuting the first look at “Barbie” at CinemaCon in April 2022, Robbie has rocked Barbiecore styles on nearly every red carpet and press appearance (most recently stunning in custom Armani inspired by 1977’s Superstar Barbie at the Golden Globes ), all of which will now be commemorated in the fashion photo book “Barbie: The World Tour.”

Chinese Director Bi Gan's Sci-Fi Thriller 'Resurrection' Boarded by Les Films du Losange (EXCLUSIVE)

The press tour for “Barbie” sent Robbie, writer-director Greta Gerwig, and the cast on a summer world tour, with stops in Toronto, Canada; Sydney, Australia (Robbie is from Queensland); Seoul, South Korea; Mexico City, Mexico; Los Angeles, California; and London, England. At each of these stops — and at the airports — Mukamal sourced or commissioned dozens of outfits that were a nod to a look worn by the original doll.

But when the “Barbie” press tour was cut short due to the onset of the SAG-AFTRA strike in July, a press release announcing the book explains, Robbie and Mukamal “worked with renowned fashion photographer Craig McDean to shoot her in the looks exactly as they were curated: Schiaparelli in Los Angeles, Vivienne Westwood in London, vintage Chanel with matching Streamline luggage at the airport, and beyond.”

Vogue recently touted Robbie’s “Barbie” wardrobe as confirmation that “method dressing is here to stay,” but, for Variety’s recent cover story saluting LuckyChap as 2023 showpeople of the year, Variety posited that, in some ways, the looks were an extension of her vision as a producer.

In her eyes, the “experience” began the moment paparazzi captured her and Ryan Gosling filming a scene on the Venice Boardwalk, roller blading in ‘80s-style multi-colored spandex and neon yellow kneepads. Onscreen, Barbie is wrestling with the discomfort of being perceived for the first time and Robbie, too, was aware that they were being watched.

“That’s when we started entertaining the audience,” she explained. “We started crafting the marketing campaign before shooting began. It needs to build to crescendo, to have mystery. All the things that you’d put into a narrative story, we should be looking at that holistically for the campaign too.”

And promoting the movie is part of that experience.

“Our vision of ‘Barbie,’ both as a character and the movie, is joyful and unapologetic,” Robbie concluded. “So, here are these big, bold, joyful looks. They also have a lot of craft in them, and they are rooted in history, and brilliant designers worked really hard.”

The book hits shelves on March 19, from Rizzoli publishing, and features a foreword by Edward Enninful, introduction by Margaret Zhang and an afterword by “Barbie” filmmaker Greta Gerwig.

THIS BARBIE is heading worldwide. Well, the much-anticipated film helmed by Greta Gerwig and fronted by Margot Robbie , at least.

They say that the devil works hard, but it’s clear that Barbie ‘s publicity team works harder — because it’s now been announced that the film will be embarking on a global tour to premiere in eight cities across seven countries. And before you ask — yes, Robbie’s homeland, our very own Australia , will play host to one of those premieres.

“You don’t have to go all the way to Barbieland to hang with Barbie and Ken,” Robbie announced in a video posted to the film’s official Instagram page .

“Because Margot and I are taking this show on the road,” Robbie’s co-star, Ryan Gosling quips.

The global Barbie tour will hit up its two leads’ homelands, stopping at Toronto in Gosling’s own Canada, and Sydney in Robbie’s Australia — where Gosling also resided for a few months last year with his wife Eva Mendes and their children, during the filming of The Fall Guy . They’ll then head to Seoul in South Korea , Mexico City in Mexico, London in England, Berlin in Germany, and Los Angeles and New York in the United States.

It’ll be the second time Robbie has brought a taste of Hollywood down under this year, after she accompanied co-stars Diego Calva, Phoebe Tonkin and Samara Weaving for the local premiere of Damien Chazelle’s Babylon in January . Dressed in baby blue Versace, Robbie was clearly awed by the reception to her visit as hundreds of fans amassed to watch her walk the red carpet and welcome her home.

No word yet on exactly when the Barbie crew will touch down to follow in Babylon ‘s footsteps, but if that welcome was anything to go by, we can only expect fans to be even more excited as she brings Barbie home — given that it’s one of this year’s most eagerly awaited films. And we’ll expect a touch more Barbiecore style on the red carpet, too.

Margot Robbie and Andrew Mukamal Celebrated The Book Launch For Barbie: The World Tour

Image may contain Hailey Baldwin Margot Robbie Clothing Coat Jacket Blazer People Person Footwear Shoe and Lamp

No other movie press tour became a phenomenon in the way that Barbie did. There’s a plethora of factors to credit—the immense star power of the film’s lead-producer hybrid, the subject matter's multi-generational appeal, and the world’s most iconic doll come to life. And then there was Margot Robbie's many designer recreations of actual archival Barbie looks for the tour's red carpet. The concept? Brilliantly executed by stylist Andrew Mukamal and the eager and collaborative help of over 13 designers.

Throughout Barbie's global tour, Robbie turned up to red carpet after red carpet in a shade of pink or a clever nod to a vintage Barbie ensemble. And as a final send-off (just before Oscar Sunday), Robbie turned out once again in her Barbie-best to fete the launch of the coffee table book, Barbie: The World Tour (Rizzoli),

Thursday night, Robbie and Mukamal drew out a star-studded crowd to a store-meets-art-gallery exhibition stationed at Just One Eye dedicated to all things Barbie. A massive metal sculpture was the first focal point, dead center at the front of the store, but mostly immediately after, there was what everyone had come for—a spread of multiple copies of Barbie: The World Tour. Guests had the privilege of privately previewing (it isn’t expected to be released until March 19).

On the opposite corner of the room were 10 mannequins dressed like Margot Robbie as Barbie—actual pieces from the press tour that were hauled in for the evening to be viewed IRL. There was the 1959 Barbie-channeling black and white striped Herve Leger mini dress Robbie wore in Australia in June, the Vivienne Westwood gown the actor donned at the London film premiere, a sparkling black mermaid gown by Schiaparelli that appeared at the Los Angeles premiere of the film, and an Atelier Versace gown fans in Seoul may remember.

As far as book launches go, this was one people felt palpably excited about—and there is, of course, a huge energy in the room when not only Robbie but Mattel, the engine of a corporation behind the toy enterprise, are in the room. “I think about the impact on just people. The emotion, the love, the happiness,” Josh Silverman, executive vice president and chief franchise officer of Mattel tells Vogue. "The film was able to bring people together to share experiences, which I think is really important.”

Its impact also generated the company over $150 million. “A lot of this is about alchemy,” he said, “and the magic that became.” Rizzoli, the publishing company behind the anticipated documentation of the press tour’s wardrobe process, was also present. “It was such an unusual project to have all these creative people, all these fashion designers, all working toward one idea,” Charles Miers, Vice President at Rizzoli, told Vogue. “So it was very obviously fashion history in the making.”

For the span of the three-hour-long event, there likely wasn’t a nano-second Robbie wasn’t surrounded by people eager to congratulate the actor and producer. The next busiest person in the room was, of course, Mukamal. While many Barbie press tour looks dominated the news, a few never publicly came to be due to the SAG-AFTRA strike.

“That pushed us to realize that there's this treasure trove of looks that the world has never seen, and honestly, they may never have seen had it not been for this.” Of them all, seen and unseen, you, of course, can’t quite ask him to pick a favorite. “It’s so hard to choose. The ones we did on tour have this spark of memory where I look at it and I’m immediately back in that city, in that day, with Margot,” Mukamal says. “These are memories I know I’ll look back on so fondly. But also, the looks that nobody got to see are so exciting and special to me also, because now they exist only in this form.”

With everyone in their best cocktail attire, Robbie in a ‘60s-esque mini number derived from the Spring 2024 Versace collection by Donatella (who, despite hosting her own party elsewhere, made an appearance), the room was abuzz.

Jeremy Scott, who supported a number of the tour’s looks, ogled the glass case of Barbie dolls dressed in vintage doll wear later reimagined on screen and on the carpet (it sat next to a wall of shoes Robbie donned along the way); Hailey Bieber made a late arrival, but made a beeline for the table of Barbie: A World Tour books (Mukamal walked her through the pages himself); and Zoë Kravitz (a longtime client of Mukamal’s) and Channing Tatum chatted with friends in the middle of the room. It was, in all aspects, just the kind of cocktail party you’d expect for the occasion—bedazzled pink bottles of Don Julio tequila and all.

The exhibition will also have attractions focused on the many careers of Barbie, who has worked as a news anchor, a fashion model and an astronaut over the decades.

A Barbie-themed café will be available on-site for guests to purchase snacks and drinks and see how the doll brand has evolved.

Kilburn Live has previously partnered with companies such as Hasbro and Dr. Seuss Enterprises to create live entertainment attractions including  The Dr. Seuss Adventure  and  NERF Challenge .

The company’s first arcade gaming attraction, The Game Room: Powered By Hasbro , will open later this year at the American Dream retail complex in New Jersey.

Barbie(TM): The World Tour

Barbie(TM): The World Tour

Author margot robbie and andrew mukamal, photographs by craig mcdean, foreword by edward enninful, introduction by margaret zhang, afterword by greta gerwig, from an idea by fabien baron.

For the press tour following the record-breaking release of Greta Gerwig’s award-winning, acclaimed Barbie movie, producer and star Margot Robbie and her stylist Andrew Mukamal immersed themselves in some of Barbie’s most iconic outfits and curated vintage pieces, then approached designers, from Giorgio Armani to Donatella Versace, to create looks inspired by the doll-size originals. Many of these looks were not seen as the official Barbie press tour was cut short—so Margot and Andrew worked with renowned fashion photographer Craig McDean to shoot her in the looks exactly as they were curated: Schiaparelli in Los Angeles, Vivienne Westwood in London, vintage Chanel with matching Steamline luggage at the airport, and beyond.   Accompanying McDean’s sumptuous photography are original Barbie dolls from the period, a treasure trove of rare materials from Mattel’s Barbie fashion archives, and the designers’ sketches and Polaroids from fittings, layered into evocative collages by Fabien Baron, who conceived and produced the shoots and art-directed the book. With text by Margot Robbie and Andrew Mukamal, as well as handwritten contributions from the designers behind the looks (from Olivier Rousteing and Michelle Ochs to Manolo Blahnik and Jeremy Scott), this unique book blends the serious chic of high fashion with the serious fun of Barbie world—the dolls, the history, and the style that have captured imaginations for 65 years. BARBIE™ and associated trademarks and trade dress are owned by, and used under license from, Mattel. ©2024 Mattel.
