Geek. Dad. Wife. (Colleen) here. I am SUPER excited about this bit of news that dropped today.

A new teaser trailer for Greta Gerwig’s highly anticipated Barbie is out! Mattel also dropped a ton of casting announcements on their Instagram page. More on that in a minute. For now, check out the new trailer! This movie looks like it’s going to be so much fun and I cannot WAIT.

As I mentioned above, Mattel’s Instagram page also released 24 pictures of the cast and which characters they’ll be playing. This cast is HUGE! Other than those leaked pictures of Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling and the first teaser, I’ve been completely in the dark about this movie. America Ferrara! Michael Cera?! Dua Lipa?!?! The two cast reveals that surprise me the least are Will Ferrell and Kate McKinnon. Helen Mirren‘s picture is my favorite. Also, I was today year’s old when I learned that Kingsley Ben-Adir is 37 and not like 24. I did not even recognize Sex Education‘s Emma Mackey at first!

Okay, I’ll stop now and let you examine the cast list for yourself. Hope the trailer and pictures bring as much joy to your afternoon as it has to mine. Barbie is out in theaters on July 21, 2023.
