The movie will pass $200 million tomorrow.
The Big Picture Christopher Nolan's biggest nemesis might appear to be the death of practical effects or the advent of digital film, but a plastic doll appears to be taking his existence personally after Greta Gerwig's Barbie just smashed a box office record held by Nolan's The Dark Knight.
There is no stopping Barbie at the moment, the film is undoubtedly living in a dream house made of money as the pink-infested fever dream earned another $26.1 million on Monday at the domestic box office, which is also the biggest Monday in the history of Warner Bros. and is yet another record smashed for Gerwig, who now also holds the biggest ever Monday for a female director. Barbie also defeated Nolan's The Dark Knight which took in $24.
There's not enough words to describe how much of a phenomenon and a box office sensation that Barbie — and indeed, Oppenheimer, from Nolan — is proving to be. Over the past weekend, it made history by debuting with an impressive $162 million in domestic box office revenue—a feat typically associated with male-driven superhero films or major intellectual properties like Warner Bros.' final Harry Potter installment.
Barbie will pass $200 million domestic tomorrow when official numbers come in, having already breached $356.3 million in its opening three days. It already seems assured of becoming the year's second $1 billion-grossing movie behind The Super Mario Bros. Movie, and may even hit the $500 million mark before the film has been in theaters for a week. Barbie is also being helped by strong word of mouth, and the performance of Ryan Gosling in particular has been highlighted for praise.
