The worlds of Barbie and 'Toy Story' are more intertwined than you'd think.
The Big Picture Finally, Greta Gerwig's long-awaited Barbie starring Margot Robbie is here, and unsurprisingly, it's been a smash hit at the box office. To say excitement for the movie was high is an understatement; fans have been preparing cosplays, crafting hilarious memes, and even preparing to do a double feature with Oppenheimer . It's surprising that it took this long for a Barbie film to be made, as Barbie has become a major part of pop culture over the years.
Barbie's scrapped appearance actually makes sense, given Whedon's ovure. Prior to his fall from grace, Whedon was best known for his work on the Buffy the Vampire Slayer television show, which featured a blonde, kickass heroine in Buffy Summers. Likewise, The Avengers had Scarlett Johansson's Black Widow tricking Loki into revealing his master plan.
Barbie also shares a link with another Disney movie, as she is voiced by Jodi Benson. That's right, Barbie is voiced by none other than The Little Mermaid herself. This isn't the first time that Benson has voiced another Disney character, but she managed to give Barbie an entirely different personality than Ariel.
