Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling are bringing the Barbie premiere to Sydney

Sydney will be the first stop on the Barbie world press and premiere tour — with Margot Robbie returning home in June to host a secial fan event with her co-stars at Pitt St Mall.

Margot Robbie is on back-to-back press tours, stepping out in New York City alongside her A-list roll call of co-stars for the premiere of Wes Anderson’s new sci-fi flick Asteroid City.

Robbie, 38, opted for a pleated white skirt and velvet bodice from Schiaparelli’s Spring 2023 Couture Collection for the event.

Meanwhile Scarlett Johanssen went old Hollywood glamour, in the form of a white ruched gown.

Other celebrities and cast members in attendance included Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson, Dianna Agron, Darren Criss, Jeffrey Wright and Jeff Goldblum.

Asteroid City had its world premiere at the 76th Cannes Film Festival in May, where it competed for the Palme d’Or.

Anderson’s film, about a junior stargazer convention held in an American desert town in 1955, is scheduled for limited theatrical release in the US, then a staggered global rollout.

This quiet approach is the stark opposite of the Barbie publicity machine, which will see Robbie embark on a global tour across eight cities and seven countries, of which Sydney is the first stop.

Director Greta Gerwig’s much-anticipated film will see Australia’s blonde bombshell bring a taste of Hollywood down under for the second time this year.

In January she accompanied co-stars Diego Calva, Phoebe Tonkin and Samara Weaving for the local premiere of Damien Chazelle’s Babylon.

The global Barbie tour will visit both leads’ homelands.

It will stop at Toronto in Gosling’s own Canada and also bringing him back to Sydney where he resided with his wife Eva Mendes and their children filming The Fall Guy last year.

Warner Bros has announced Gerwig, Robbie and co-stars America Ferrera and Issa Rae will host a fan event at Westfield Sydney’s Pitt Street Mall on June 30 but are yet to announce when the premiere will be.

Speaking on The Kelly Clarkson Show on Tuesday, Robbie revealed she’d never actually owned the iconic Mattel doll as a child.

She did, however, receive an elaborate version of Barbie’s Dream House, which was her one request of her director.

“The first thing I said to director Greta Gerwig when we first sat down and talked about the movie, I said, ‘I will follow your vision, whatever you want it to be, let’s do that. Except, I just have one favour to ask. Please, please, please can we have a dream house with a slide from the bedroom down to the pool? That is my goal in life!’ And she was like, ‘Sure’.’”
