Barbie becomes highest grossing movie directed by a woman

After a massive second weekend, Greta Gerwig’s Barbie has made film history as the highest-grossing film directed by a woman.
Until recently, Patty Jenkins had held the record for the highest-grossing female-directed film, thanks to her 2017 DC movie Wonder Woman and a total of $822.8million at the box office.
In its opening weekend alone, the depiction of the classic Mattel doll had grossed $356million worldwide.
