Since ‘Barbie‘ and ‘Oppenheimer’ were announced to be released on the same day, movie buffs have been super excited about Barbenheimer. Memes on Barbenheimer have been seen extensively on the internet. Both movies have enjoyed immense success at the box office.
Now ‘Oppenheimer’ lead Cillian Murphy has added fuel to Barbenheimer in one of his interviews. And the internet cannot contain their excitement. Let’s take a look at what Cillian Murphy said.
Cillian Murphy Talks About Being Ken
In a recent interview with Argentinian news outlet Cinéfilos, Cillian Murphy expressed his wish to be Ken in the sequel of ‘Barbie‘. And this interview has gone viral.
“Would I play a Ken in Barbie 2? Sure. Ya, let’s read the script. Let’s have a conversation. I can’t wait to see it,” said Murphy. The ‘Peaky Blinders’ actor has said before as well that he was very excited to watch ‘Barbie‘.
This is a major moment for Barbenheimer stans. However, at this moment there is no news about a sequel for ‘Barbie‘. Greta Gerwig has not revealed any plans about a sequel yet. But given the success that the movie has gained at the box office, a sequel might follow soon.

It’s what the world NEEDS!!
Honestly… 👀 That’s a concept I wouldn’t be opposed to. As a matter of fact, there’s a lot of cast members from Oppenheimer that I can totally see Barbies or Kens. Specifically him, Emily Blunt, Florence Pugh and Rami Malek.
