Watch: Get Your First Look at Greta Gerwig's 'Barbie' Movie
The first teaser trailer for the highly anticipated “Barbie” movie directed by Greta Gerwig and starring Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling has finally arrived online.
The 75-second clip begins with an homage to “2001: A Space Odyssey,” feature a few young girls playing with Barbie dolls in a desert landscape. A narrator says, “Since the beginning of time — since the first little girl ever existed — there have been dolls. But the dolls were always and forever baby dolls. Until…” And just like the Monolith in “2001,” that's when a giant Robbie as Barbie wearing a bathing suit appears. The trailer then cuts to the logo and shows a few quick scenes from the film.
