“Barbie” Movie Memes and Outfit Jokes Have Taken Over the Internet

Come on Barbie let’s go meme-ing! Greta Gerwig’s highly anticipated live-action Barbie movie may not be out until next summer, but that hasn’t stopped Twitter making the movie and its stars the main character of the month — thanks to an influx of footage from the cast currently filming in Venice Beach.

Photos and videos of Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling’s Barbie and Ken shooting in a variety of fluorescent outfits have been flooding our timelines, so much so that many are joking that we will have already seen the whole movie by the time it hits screens. 

Along with Margot and Ryan, the film also stars Will Ferrell, America Ferrera, Simu Liu, Ncuti Gatwa, and Issa Rae — just to name a few. Questions are burning about what exactly Barbie is about, because so far the plot has stayed successfully under wraps. But this hasn’t stopped the theories bubbling and the memes flowing, and until we finally get a hint of just what this movie will be, let’s enjoy some of the best online reactions:

Meanwhile, the Internet Is Just Being the Internet

Sometimes we just need to sit back and marvel at the way the internet’s collective, beautifully ridiculous hive-mind works. “It's always ‘come on barbie, let’s go party’ and never ‘come on barbie, tell me all about your day’” one Twitter user wrote.
