Hollywood stars Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling walked the pink carpet at London’s Leicester Square on Wednesday for the UK premiere of Greta Gerwig’s Barbie. The film, a live-action take on the famous Mattel doll and media franchise, starring Robbie as Barbie and Gosling as Ken, releases worldwide on July 21.
Robbie, 33, channeled a Barbie Enchanted Evening 1960 Fashion Doll in a custom-made outfit by Vivienne Westwood at the London premiere. Gosling, meanwhile, turned up in a pastel green two-piece suit. Celebrities like Dua Lipa, America Ferrera, Will Ferrell and others also attended the red carpet and premiere.

Barbie is clashing at the box-office with Christopher Nolan’s more serious-natured Oppenheimer, sparking the internet phenomenon called Barbenheimer.
Greta Gerwig had previously directed the films Lady Bird (2017) and Little Women (2019).
