Margot Robbie's 'Barbie' Opens on July 19
Warner Bros. Korea announced on the 10th that Greta Gerwig's film 'Barbie' will be released on July 19.
Starring and produced by Margot Robbie, 'Barbie' tells the story of Barbie, who lives in Barbie Land where she can be anything she wants, discovering a portal crack that connects to the real world, and embarking on a journey with Ken to resolve it.
The signature color of the movie is pink. Sarah Greenwood, the production designer who won the Production Design Award at the 61st British Academy Film Awards, worked hard from the early stages of production to beautifully and vividly realize the various shades of pink featured in the film.
Regarding the set, director Greta Gerwig said, "Like the Barbie world we imagined in our childhood, the most important thing was for Barbie Land to feel like a happy place."
She added, "When I was young, I liked bright fluorescent pink, but Barbie Land had to encompass the entire spectrum of pink. It was important to blend all pink tones together, including fluorescent pink and soft pastel pink."
