Greta Gerwig is in a league of her own as the first solo female director whose movie has made $1 billion.
Considering her indie background, you could argue Greta's has had a meteoric rise over the past 5-6 years. And like we previously reported, there's currently no active plans for a sequel at this point -- which, if you know studios, is unheard of when this sorta success is had.
There's a report saying WB actually tried brokering a deal for Greta to direct 'Barbie 2' months before the film came out -- but her agents shot that down and insisted on waiting to see how it actually performed. Smart move in hindsight ... Greta can fetch a fortune now.BTW ... Greta actually turned 40 a couple days ago, and
surprised her with a flash mob performance full of Kens, complete with his signature song from the movie.
