"Barbie" Shatters Box Office Records, Empowering Greta Gerwig as First Female Billion-Dollar Director
Greta Gerwig becomes the first female director to achieve a billion-dollar movie with "Barbie," which has dominated the box office for three consecutive weeks. While other female directors have reached the billion-dollar mark through co-directing with men, Gerwig stands alone as a solo female director. This milestone highlights the bankability of women both in front of and behind the camera, and it marks a historical feat in the film industry.
