Disturbing news comes from the box office. Analysts predict a fierce battle between the two factions in the struggle for a harvest of money from the audience’s wallets. Hiding in the pink corner of the ring “Barbie”while the enemy squints at her from under her brows “Oppenheimer” Christopher Nolan. Both films are released on the same day, which will present viewers with an allegedly difficult choice and will certainly have a negative impact on the box office contenders for the title of winner.
This fight has already been nicknamed on the network by a capacious term barbenheimer. Despite the appeal of Tom Cruise personally to attend both sessions, analysts predict the Nolan film will lose in this fight, they say, $ 40 million shines for him, and Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling can count on all $ 80 million.
The situation is all the more sad because mid-July is historically unofficially called “Nolan’s Weekend” – starting with The Dark Knight in 2008, all the director’s films (with the exception of Interstellar) were released just during this period. Even “Tenet” was originally announced for this month, but the pandemic adjusted plans. There is a version that Warner Bros. put “Barbie” in this particular release window in order to take revenge on Nolan for the fact that, following a disagreement, he left for a rival company.
The director, when asked to comment on this assumption, spoke very tactfully:
As you understand, I am not going to answer this question. I will only say to those who care regarding the cinema experience: we were craving a crowded market with an abundance of different films. That’s exactly what we have now, and those of us who care regarding cinema are excited regarding it.
Christopher Nolan hints at Tom Cruise
However, unofficial sources, who prudently wished to remain anonymous, told the Insider portal that the director is not so diplomatic in an informal setting. Like, he was upset that he had to share his favorite slot and audience attention with the project of his once native studio. Also, anonymous sources report that the bigwigs of the cinema business even asked Warner Bros. postpone the premiere of “Barbie”, but the major refused.
This information looks especially interesting once morest the backdrop of alleged attempts by Warner Bros. to return the director under his wing, where he shot his best films over 20 years of fruitful cooperation. It is unlikely that such a move will help resolve differences – unless the studio seeks to prove that without its help it will not see box office receipts and popular recognition. However, for this you need to see the numbers, and they will be known in a week – “Barbie” and “Oppenheimer” are released on July 21.
