Barbie star Margot Robbie has revealed that a producer for the movie Oppenheimer asked her to change the release date of her movie to avoid competition.While speaking with Oppenheimer star Cillian Murphy on Variety’s Actors on Actors series, Robbie said that she received a call prior to the release of Barbie asking her to change the release date. “I was like, ‘We’re not moving our date,” Robbie said. “If you’re scared to be up against us, then you move your date.’ He’s like, ‘We’re not moving our date.’” Both Universal and Warner Bros. Discovery stuck to their guns and released Oppenheimer and Barbie in July of this year, and the two films became a viral sensation. Oppenheimer and Barbie are considered awards contenders at next year’s Academy Awards.While both films were wildly successful at the box office, Greta Gerwig’s Barbie came out on top over the summer, earning over $1.4 billion, making it the highest grossing movie of the year. Oppenheimer wasn’t too far behind, raking in $953 million. Despite that, Oppenheimer appears to be winning another key battle in the form of home VOD sales.
