Greta Gerwig’s dazzling doll surpassed a quarter of a billion dollars, with a stunning $258 million, according to Warner Bros., which produced the movie. It stayed No. 1 throughout the week, nabbing an average of $24 million each day. On Friday, that number jumped to $29 million. Meanwhile, Christopher Nolan’s existential biopic grossed some $128 million. It averaged $11 million per weekday, according to media analytics company Comscore, with $13.4 million on Friday.
Over this weekend, analysts project about $94 million for “Barbie” and $46 million for “Oppenheimer.” “Even if that was the opening weekend, these would still be great numbers,” he added. “Barbie” and “Oppenheimer” are generating record-breaking second weekend presales, according to The Boxoffice Company, which powers show times and ticketing for Google, TikTok, IMDb and Apple.
