Legend has it that when Margot Robbie pitched Warner Bros her idea for what the Barbie movie should be, she won the executives over by telling them that it would make a billion dollars. Last week she was proved right.
Barbie has now made $1.18bn at the global box office. This is an incredible achievement. Of all the movies ever made, only 53 have managed to hit this milestone. Needless to say, that number is much less if you only want to count good films.
