We were saying that [with] the wardrobe in the bar was set so high, and we would really like to do something that is as cool as that,» Robbie says, before explaining how the magic closet works.«She looks at it, gives a spin, and it's on her body,» Robbie says. «She walks off and the outfit for the next day is sitting in the wardrobe behind her.»The rest of Barbie's morning routine is just as easy, as she «wakes up with perfect hair, no morning breath, her pajamas are impossibly ironed and beautiful still, and she feels great, energized for another perfect day in

Gerwig was talking about the time the crew spent filming a rollerblading scene in Venice Beach. Set photos from the scene, featuring Robbie and Gosling in neon outfits, exploded on social media last summer during production. “How Barbie operates in Barbieland is she’s entirely continuous with her environment,” Gerwig said. “Even the houses have no walls, because you never need to hide because there’s nothing to be ashamed of or embarrassed of. And suddenly finding yourself in the real world and wishing you could hide, that’s the essence of being human. But when we were actually shooting on Venice Beach, with Margot and Ryan in neon rollerblading outfits, it was fascinating because it was actually happening in front of us.”

For months now, there has been this silly, social media-created competition between two films that are scheduled for release on the same day—Christopher Nolan’s “Oppenheimer” and Greta Gerwig’s “Barbie.” Sure, there is real competition for money when two big-budget studio films are released at the same time, but the odds are that both of these films will be huge hits for their respective studios.
