Greta Gerwig’s Mattel-made satire Barbie is set to win out the much-hyped box office competition with a projected US opening of $110m.
The $145m-budgeted film, the first from the recently created Mattel Studios which stars Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling, will probably triumph over Christopher Nolan’s biopic Oppenheimer, the competitive release date having created a much-hyped rivalry dubbed Barbenheimer.
