The Biggest Movie of the Summer Hits the Biggest Screens As Greta Gerwig's Blockbuster Barbie Comes to Imax for Special One-Week Super Fan Screening Engagement Beginning September 22
Warner Bros. Pictures
The record-smashing movie, now at $1.3 Billion and counting, will take to IMAX screens across North America and in select international markets for one week only
As an added bonus, in celebration of Barbie's successful summer, the Studio and Gerwig-who now holds the record as the only solo woman director to surpass $1 Billion at the global box office-will also offer IMAX audiences additional, never-before-seen post-credit footage
(Burbank, CA) - This September, Get Your Pink On! Beginning on September 22, 2023 and for just one week, Warner Bros. Pictures' Barbie will say farewell to summer with a limited engagement in select IMAX theaters throughout North America and select locations around the world. In addition to experiencing the film for the first time in IMAX, audiences will be treated to exclusive post-credit footage selected by the film's director, Greta Gerwig. The announcement was made today by Jeff Goldstein, President of Domestic Distribution, and Andrew Cripps, President of International Distribution, Warner Bros. Pictures.
Gerwig stated, The worldwide enthusiasm for Barbie' has been overwhelming, humbling, and deeply moving. So many Barbie fans went on this journey with us, and we can't thank them enough for supporting the film and sharing their Barbie' experience in theaters, across social media, and out in the world. We made Barbie' for the big screen, so it's a thrill to be able to bring it to IMAX, the biggest screen of all. And as a special thanks to Barbie' fans, we're excited to share a little bit more of our cast and crew's incredible work by adding special new footage we hope audiences will enjoy.
Richard Gelfond, CEO, IMAX Corporation, said, For all of us in the exhibition community, it's been exciting to watch an original film like Barbie' become an unparalleled critical and commercial success this summer. We're thrilled to be partnering with Greta and her filmmaking team and our friends at Warner Bros. to deliver this special edition of Barbie' with never-before-seen footage exclusively to IMAX audiences around the world.
Goldstein and Cripps added, If there was one thing missing in this winning Barbie' strategy, it was being able to put Greta's singular vision on premium IMAX screens over the uber-competitive summer corridor. That Barbie' continues to draw packed audiences around the world heading into its sixth weekend in release speaks to the quality of the film and the excitement audiences have for the story. Greta, Margot, Ryan and everyone involved in Barbie' have not just captured, but held the attention of moviegoers everywhere, and we are so pleased to give them a chance to see Barbie,' whether for the first or fifth time, in such an experiential format as IMAX.
To live in Barbie Land is to be a perfect being in a perfect place. Unless you have a full-on existential crisis. Or you're a Ken.
