The anticipation surrounding Barbie before and after its release was monumental, a testament to Greta Gerwig’s masterful creation. The featuring of a constellation of stellar talents like Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling was the cherry on top. Glistening with triumph, the unique pairing of this Barbie and Ken duo effortlessly enchanted the masses, leaving an indelible mark on their hearts. While Barbie is still a while away from landing on Netflix, there’s a captivating substitute for audiences.

That is Barbie: Life in the Dreamhouse, reminiscent of the allure of Super Mario. As the anticipation lingers for the main feature, the duo of Robbie and Gosling are set to grace Netflix, though not with Barbie.

After witnessing the iconic Ken and Barbie romance brought to life by Robbie and Gosling, their on-screen chemistry lingers in the mind. However, this was not their maiden collaboration on the silver screen. Five years prior, in 2015, within an entirely different universe from the realm of Barbie, existed the critically acclaimed movie The Big Short. An Oscar-winning cinematic adaptation is ready to make its presence felt on the Netflix stage.

Based on Michael Lewis’s renowned book, The Big Short comes to life on screen, directed by Adam McKay. The film delves into the experiences of American financial experts who not only predicted but also profited from the housing bubble’s rise and fall in 2007-2008. In this context, Robbie’s entrancing presence shined. She discussed the intricacies of mortgage-backed securities while luxuriating in a bubble bath with a glass of champagne, symbolizing the financial world’s fragility.

Exciting news unfolded as the Suicide Squad actress and Gosling’s captivating chemistry will grace the screen once again, illuminating yet another cinematic endeavor.

Chemistry rekindled: Robbie and Gosling’s on-screen magic returns

Robbie and Ryan Gosling, the electrifying Barbie pair, are set to reunite for an enticing prequel to Ocean’s Eleven. Their iconic roles may linger, but their transformative talents are ready to shine anew. Picture Robbie channeling classic elegance and Gosling embodying a modern Cary Grant. With this, the allure of Alfred Hitchcock’s romance infuses the storyline.

Their decision to reunite promises a chemistry-infused narrative that remained untapped in the Barbie universe. While the release date for the Ocean’s Eleven Prequel remains concealed, Collider hints at an imminent shoot starting on June 30, 2023, in France. However, the ongoing US actors and writers’ strike adds an air of mystery, temporarily suspending film and TV productions.
