BARBIE Is Available To Stream Exclusively On Max Today. Max Turns Into Barbie Land With Pink Homepage, Barbie Profile Avatars, Themed Curations, And More
Warner Bros. Pictures’ BARBIE makes its exclusive streaming debut on Max today. BARBIE debuted in theaters on July 21 and broke records as the highest-grossing global release in the studio’s 100-year history.
Barbie with ASL, the hit blockbuster film interpreted in American Sign Language (ASL), is also available starting today. Grounded in research and feedback from the Deaf community, as well as counsel from community leaders, Barbie with ASL was produced for Max featuring ASL performer Leila Hanaumi (Deaf Austin Theatre’s “The Laramie Project,” ASL cover for Tove Lo in “True Romance” music video). Barbie with ASL is displayed as a unique title in-app and can be identified by its key art with the sign language symbol.
Additionally, starting today until December 18, Max has turned into Barbie Land with a custom pink and white logo and pink homepage on supported devices to celebrate the streaming debut of the hit summer blockbuster. Max on web will include additional themed elements including pink menus and a unique cursor animation on pink Barbie title pages and the homepage.
Fans can personalize their profiles to join in the celebration by picking their profile avatars from a selection of characters from the film, including Stereotypical Barbie (Margot Robbie), Stereotypical Ken (Ryan Gosling), Gloria (America Ferrera), Dr. Barbie (Hari Nef), President Barbie (Issa Rae), Allan (Michael Cera), and more.
