The 11 Best Barbenheimer Posters for Summer 2023

Two movies. One weekend. One global phenomenon. Audiences have coined 2023’s movie event of the year Barbenheimer, as Greta Gerwig’s Barbie and Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer are set to go head-to-head in theaters this weekend. One of the best things to come out of this cinematic feat pre-release is undoubtedly all the beautiful Barbenheimer posters.

Opinions vary on whether Barbenheimer is more of a collaboration or a competition, but one thing is for certain: fans can’t get enough of it. In the spirit of new lock screens and sensational creativity, there’s no better time to assemble a list of the best Barbenheimer posters.

Disclaimer: I stumbled upon these posters in a thread on Twitter in which not all the artists are mentioned. If you, or someone you know are one of the incredibly talented artists responsible for the posters showcased in this article, please message me and I will give proper credit.

Barbie (Margot Robbie) is so much more than just a doll, and Oppenheimer (Cillian Murphy) isn’t just a theoretical physicist. Who wouldn’t want to leave their day job and go dancing with Barbie?

Ken’s (Ryan Gosling) job is beach, and Oppenheimer’s job is bomb. Barbie has left behind delightful, himbo Kenergy for a more explosive personality.

Barbie and Oppenheimer may be the stars of the show, but each film boasts an insanely impressive cast. This Barbenheimer poster pays homage to all cast members, while keeping the titular characters front and center.

Stop the car Barbie, we’re going bombing. In arguably the most colorful and well-designed Barbenheimer poster, a little bit of shrapnel isn’t going to stop Barbie and Oppenheimer from having a good time.

Barbie’s kingdom is sure to be one of the most beautiful sets in movie history, until it’s discovered by Oppenheimer. This explosion is enough to make Barbie think about dying.

The only crossover bigger than Barbie and Oppenheimer may be Barbenheimer and The Beatles. Pairing the movie event of the summer with one of the greatest albums of all time is an impressive display of taste.

Let’s face it, Barbie looks great no matter what she’s doing. Put her in front of the atomic bomb, and she looks to be having a great time. But did Oppenheimer tell her to strike a pose?

Inside of everyone there’s a Barbie and an Oppenheimer, but which side suits you best? The good news is, there will be weeks to experience the famed double feature of Oppenheimer and Barbie.

Barbie and Oppenheimer releasing on the same weekend is the biggest crossover in recent memory, but what if there’s more to come? Could Barbie and Oppenheimer appear in the same movie in the future? This Barbenheimer poster makes a compelling case.

Oppenheimer director Christopher Nolan has a long-standing relationship with Warner Bros, the same studio behind Barbie. Perhaps the two titular stars crossed paths sometime during production?

Does anyone know if Oppenheimer brought his roller skates? No matter, Barbie and the Barbie mobile are fired up and ready to take the duo wherever they need to go.
