Could we really see a Barbieheimer crossover?
The box office has been set ablaze as Barbie and Oppenheimer stormed cinemas, creating a historic cinematic weekend. The duo, collectively known as Barbenheimer, not only dominated the top two spots with earnings of over $100 million and $50 million, respectively, but also sparked a unique crossover craze among fans.
“Hey, you know, sure. Yeah, let’s read the script. Let’s have a conversation,” Murphy said, adding, “I can’t wait to see the movie. I think it’s great for cinema. You know, we’ve got all these great movies happening this summer." The success story extended beyond the borders of the United States, with Barbie raking in an additional $182 million in foreign markets, bringing its global debut to an impressive $337 million. Similarly, Oppenheimer's global debut amassed a remarkable $180.4 million, surpassing previous records for any biopic and marking the biggest global opening for a drama film since 2019.
