Mattel had reservations about one scene in Barbie. Based on the toy brand and led by director and screenwriter Greta Gerwig, the Barbie movie starred Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling as Mattel's beloved Barbie and Ken. With the pair visiting the Real World, they discover the truth of the world outside of Barbieland and the oppressiveness of the patriarchy. Launching on the same day as Oppenheimer, the movie was a massive success, earning over $1.4 billion on a budget of under $150 million.
