Not only did Barbie win the box office this weekend it also scored the top opening of the year so far and the biggest opening weekend for a female director. Greta Gerwig’s Barbie made $155 million domestically and the record previously went to Patty Jenkin’s Wonder Woman and Captain Marvel who was co-directed by Anna Borden and Ryan Flek.

In case you’re wondering Oppenheimer did well still at $80.5 million.
