With Barbie and Oppenheimer releasing on the same day, and having a surprisingly large overlap in fans who seem deeply invested in both, a lot of jokes have been made on social media regarding which one will come out on top. But Greta Gerwig and Margot Robbie have made their vote clear: they’re supporting all the intended summer blockbusters.
The Barbie duo shared photos they took in front of movie posters for Oppenheimer, Mission Impossible — Dead Reckoning Part One, and Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, including tickets to all three films.
Tom Cruise and Mission Impossible director Christopher McQuarrie actually kicked off the trend a day earlier, posing for their own triple-feature of photos.
“This summer is full of amazing movies to see in theaters,” Cruise wrote, congratulating Harrison Ford on the longevity of Indiana Jones and alluding to catching a future double feature of Oppenheimer and Barbie.
The support on both sides is strangely refreshing, especially considering Cruise and McQuarrie made a point to include Barbie and Robbie and Gerwig promotedOppenheimer despite it being their most direct competition for opening weekend.
Now, people are just waiting to see if Christopher Nolan and Cillian Murphy will respond in kind.
Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny hits theaters today, June 30, while the latest installment in the Mission Impossible franchise will be released July 12. Barbie and Oppenheimer both share a release date of July 21.
