8:24Now PlayingThe Barbie movie, a highly-anticipated fantasy comedy film directed by Greta Gerwig and starring Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling, is facing bans in several Arab and Muslim-majority countries due to perceived themes that challenge traditional values. Lebanon's Hezbollah-backed culture minister, Mohammad Mortada, was the first to call for a ban, arguing the film seemed to "promote homosexuality and sexual transformation" and "contradicts values of faith and morality." Following suit, Kuwait announced the film would not be released, citing its promotion of ideas "alien to the Kuwaiti society and public order." Meanwhile, some Gulf nations, including the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, and Bahrain, have opted to screen the film after editing out scenes deemed inappropriate or challenging to social norms.
