Barbie Film Release Date Postponed In UAE

Just like us, you must be eagerly waiting for the Barbie movie.

With the global release date set for Friday July 21, Dubai fans might have longer to wait. Those wanting to get lost in a perfectly pink world might be waiting a month, as the Barbie movie UAE release date is set for Thursday August 31.

The release date is currently only listed on the VOX Cinemas website, with other local cinemas simply advising that booking will ‘open soon’. Since Greta Gerwig’s Barbie film was announced last year, Barbiecore has taken over the world, with global shortages of pink paint being reported as a result. The film is already trending on social media with fans eagerly awaiting the release.

Margot Robbie is playing the lead role with Ryan Gosling playing her opposite, Ken. Other big names in the cast include Will Ferrell, Emma Mackey and Michael Cera.

The plot follows the manicured blonde doll as she leaves her brilliantly pink Barbie Land behind to join the real world.

Originally announced back in 2009, the film began development in 2014 and Robbie was later cast in 2019. The filming largely took place in England at Warner Bros. Studios Leavesden.

The film will be released in the UK and USA on July 21. Stayed tuned to Time Out Dubai for the Barbie movie UAE release date.
