Barbie or Oppenheimer Controversy Explained -World-Wire

Warner Bros has apologized after the studio’s Japan branch accused its social media posts of trivializing nuclear war in memes about Barbie and Oppenheimer.

The Japanese branch of the studio’s official social media account reacted to the “regrettable” and “inconsiderate” posts, which attempted to join in on the recent craze surrounding the release of both films, whose titles have been merged to create the phrase “Barbenheimer”.

Meme images that Warner Bros replied to included one showing Barbie lead star Margot Robbie with a hairstyle in the shape of a mushroom cloud, a reference to the atomic blast featured in Christopher Nolan’s biographical drama Oppenheimer. The social media account wrote in response: “This Ken is a stylist”.
