Warner Bros dropped the highly anticipated second trailer of the upcoming comedy film “Barbie” on Tuesday, promising a visual treat full of fun gags. Starring Margot Robbie as the high-heeled Barbie girl and Ryan Gosling as her boyfriend Ken, the trailer is set in Barbie Land, introducing the humans in the Barbie universe.
The one-minute-44-second teaser provides a glimpse of the star-studded cast, with Will Ferrell playing the owner of Mattle and Connor Swindells as an intern. Emma Mackey, known for her role in “Sex Education,” plays a version of Barbie who has received a Nobel Prize in Physics. Dua Lipa, who does not appear in the teaser, plays Mermaid Barbie. Issa Rae plays President Barbie, while Nicola Coughlan from “Bridgerton” is Diplomat Barbie. Michael Cera plays Allan, a sidekick to all the Kens in the Barbie universe.
Written by Greta Gerwig and Noah Baumbach, the teaser also hints at the storyline of the movie. Ryan Gosling and Simu Liu play different versions of Ken, who are seen fighting each other to establish their place in Barbie Land and, perhaps, in the heart of Margot’s Barbie. Towards the end of the teaser, Margot can be seen attempting to leave Barbie Land and enter the Real World with Ryan’s Ken and his trusty yellow roller skates.
The trailer promises a visual feast, with all shades of pink exploding on the screen, and the characters dressed in bright, vibrant costumes. The film, based on Mattel’s famous Barbie doll, is directed by Greta Gerwig and set for a theatrical release on July 21 in the US, with an international release from July 19.
Fans of the iconic toy line are eagerly awaiting the movie’s release, and the second trailer has only added to the excitement.

Barbie Land’s comedy riot is set to bring laughter and fun to audiences of all ages, and the second trailer has only whetted fans’ appetites for what promises to be one of the summer’s biggest hits.
