The fantasy drama Barbie by Greta Gerwig, starring Margot Robbie, and the epic biographical drama Oppenheimer by Christopher Nolan will battle at the film office this week, making July a very interesting month for moviegoers. On the other hand, the debut of Barbie and Oppenheimer may soon derail Tom Cruise’s Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One, which hit theatres last week and has been performing well at the box office.
Barbenheimer
The huge sensation that has swept over the internet has been dubbed “Barbenheimer” due to the enormous budget and A-list cast of both films. Nolan‘s biographical drama chronicles the tale of theoretical physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer, the head of the Manhattan Project and also regarded as the father of the atomic bomb.
While Gerwig’s forthcoming fantasy drama is the first live-action film based on Mattel’s well-known doll Barbie, Margot Robbie, an Australian actress who was the highest-paid actress in Hollywood in 2022, will star in it.
Margot Robbie
Robbie first gained notoriety, co-starring Leonardo DiCaprio’s co-star in Martin Scorsese’s 2013 film The Wolf of Wall Street. Since then, Robbie has collaborated with some of the best directors in the film industry to produce blockbusters, including Suicide Squad, I, Tonya, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, and Birds of Prey. In addition, the 33-year-old actress co-founded LuckyChap Entertainment, a production business that has supported several of her endeavors, including Barbie.
Find Out How Much Margot Robbie Demanded
According to Variety, Margot is earning $12.5 million (about Rs 102 crore) for Barbie, the same as her co-star Ryan Gosling, who plays Ken in the film. Margot may possibly receive an even larger paycheck as she did with Birds of Prey because she is also producing a film.
Margot’s principal source of income is acting. Still, according to Celebrity Net Worth, she has amassed a portfolio worth $40 million (about Rs 328 crore) through producing films and promoting well-known companies like Calvin Klein, Nissan, and others.
Budget Of Barbenheimer
In a recent interview with the New York Times, director Greta Gerwig discussed the budget of the fantasy drama Barbie and disclosed that it is $145 million (about Rs 1,190 crore) in total. It should come as no surprise, given the film’s outstanding supporting cast, which includes America Ferrera, Simu Liu, Kate McKinnon, Issa Rae, Rhea Perlman, and Will Ferrell, and the production costs expended. Oppenheimer, a film directed by Nolan, was made with significantly less budget. The highly anticipated biopic Oppenheimer, directed by Christopher Nolan, has a $100 million (about Rs 821 crore) budget, which gives it a more substantial chance of succeeding at the box office, according to Screenrant.
