Barbie's been smashing box office records during its titanic run at the box office, and the summer comedy is now the highest-grossing global release in Warner Bros. history (not adjusting for inflation).
Barbie had already broken the box office records for the biggest opening and highest-grossing film directed by a woman, and it had stolen the record for the biggest opening weekend of 2023 from The Super Mario Bros. Movie. As reported by Variety, the film earned an additional $18.2 million over the weekend, making it now the highest-grossing film of the year with global takings of over $1.34 billion.
