Film fans headed to cinemas in Los Angeles for early screenings of frothy comedy “Barbie” and nuclear arms biopic “Oppenheimer” — a double feature billed as “Barbenheimer.”
At the TCL Chinese Theater on Hollywood Boulevard, some moviegoers were fully getting into the global “Barbenheimer” craze, with plans to see both films on the same day.
“I bought my tickets months ago as soon as they were available,” 25-year-old Joey Litvak said as he walked to an “Oppenheimer” screening on Thursday.
“I’m seeing Barbie … right after. Barbenheimer.”
Both films open on Friday, a simultaneous release dubbed “Barbenheimer,” but they could not be more different.
“Barbie” stars Margot Robbie as the Mattel doll, who is living her idyllic life in Barbie World, until one day she starts having dark thoughts and flat feet.
“Oppenheimer,” from acclaimed director Christopher Nolan, stars Cillian Murphy as U.
