Fans have gone wild after a new Barbie teaser was shared online, claiming Ryan Gosling ‘steals the show’ as Ken. 

The actor, 42, stars alongside Margot Robbie’s Barbie in the comedy and despite an initial doubt over the casting, Twitter users were singing his praises as a new clip emerged. 

In the scene, Ken is seen having an surfing injury tended to, announcing: ‘Shredding waves is much more dangerous than people realise,’ as Barbie declares: ‘You’re very brave Ken.’

Ken continues: ‘You know surfing isn’t even my job, and it is not lifeguard, which is a common misconception.’ 

As the dolls look in shock, he explains: ‘Actually, my job, it’s just “beach”‘.

Talk then turns to their evening plans, with Ken crossing his fingers and asking: ‘Hey Barbie, can I come to your house tonight?’

Barbie then quips: ‘Sure. I don’t have anything planned tonight, just a big giant blow out party with all the Barbies, and planned choreography and a bespoke song. You should stop by!’ 

Taking to Twitter to share their thoughts on the scene, fans commented: ‘I have a feeling this movie is going to make a lot of $$.’ ;Watch my boy Ryan steal the show right from under Margot’s feet.’

‘Looks pretty funny tbh plus it’s got a huge cast looks like a W movie’; ‘Im in love i cant wait omg omg omg omg omg’; ‘I don’t know if I actually want to see this movie or not. I just know that I HAVE to see it.’ 

Another teaser released showed America Ferrera, who plays a human named Gloria, at shock to discover Barbie in the real world. 

Pulling up in front of the Mattel studios she shouts at Barbie to get in her car, with Barbie obliging, while her daughter Sasha quips: ‘God I hope nobody from school saw us put a lifesize Barbie in our car!’

She adds: ‘How did this even happen? How are you even here? You’re just an idea’, to which Barbie responded: ‘A great idea!’

Twitter went into meltdown at the new clip, with fans commenting: ‘I’m weirdly excited for this movie lol’; ‘Crazy thing is, I’ve never played with Barbie toys and have never watched a single Barbie tv/movie content… but for some reason, I want to watch THIS.

Development on Barbie began in the late 2000s, and figures such as Diablo Cody and Amy Schumer were attached to the project at various points.

Margot signed on as the movie’s star in 2019, and Greta Gerwig and Noah Baumbach were attached as screenwriters that same year.

The former of the pair was formally named as the project’s director in July of 2021.

Margot, who also serves as one of the feature’s producers, recently spoke to Vogue and opened up about pitching the project to Mattel.

The actress recalled stating: ‘We of course would want to honor the 60-year legacy that this brand has. But we have to acknowledge that there are a lot of people who aren’t fans of Barbie.’

The actress also expressed that she had never considered stepping into the doll’s shoes at any point in her career.

‘It wasn’t that I ever wanted to play Barbie, or dreamt of being Barbie, or anything like that. This is going to sound stupid, but I really didn’t even think about playing Barbie until years into developing the project,’ she said.

Gosling also spoke to the media outlet and revealed that his costar graciously left him ‘a pink present with a pink bow, from Barbie to Ken, every day while we were filming.’

Barbie is currently scheduled to be released on July 21.
