Trans-Inclusive ‘Barbie’ Film Shatters ‘Harry Potter’ Box Office Record

Barbie has smashed through another box office record, beating a milestone previously set by Harry Potter.

The Warner Bros film, which comes from Greta Gerwig and stars Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling as the titular doll and Ken, grossed over $1 billion at the global box office.

Barbie has now become the studio’s fastest movie to reach that record (17 days), beating previous holder Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2, which did it in 19 days back in 2011.

This past weekend, the film beat out Meg 2: The Trench and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem to remain atop the box office. It grossed $53 million — bringing its domestic total to $459 million to date.

Conservatives and Far Right commentators have been triggered by Barbie’s so-called “woke” message to kids, with one Fox News guest calling it the “most insidious packaging of feminist cliches and trans grooming that you have ever seen.”

The film also stars trans actor Hari Nef as one of the brilliant and beautiful Barbies.
