In June 2022, a few "candy-colored" snippets from the film were released, but the audience has zero details about the plot. In fact, IMDb gives the following summary of the movie in a single line:"Barbie lives in Barbie Land and then a story happens."However, the few people who have had the opportunity to see the Barbie trailer at the screening of Avatar: The Way of Water are in awe, stating that the "trailer is genius."
