The Barbie movie continues to take the world by storm, with the perfectly pink aesthetic, star-studded cast and catchy soundtrack creating a swarm of superfans across the globe since its release last summer.
Starring Margot Robbie as the popular Mattel doll, the movie is set in Barbieland, where every day is seemingly perfect. That is until Robbie’s character becomes increasingly disillusioned and gets kicked out of Barbieland and into the real world, after having existential thoughts.
With 2024 awards season currently in full swing, Ryan Gosling (who plays Ken) took the gong for Best Song at the Critics Choice Awards on Sunday, thanks to his brilliantly hilarious and epically catchy “I’m Just Ken” tune. Seemingly staying in character as the camera panned outwards to capture his reaction, Gosling was seen looking confused in scenes that have sparked amused shares across social media.
Whether you’re one of the few people left yet to see Greta Gerwig’s blockbuster movie, or fancy revisiting the film, a viewing from home is sure to brighten up a dreary winter day.
