Sunak took to his social media to reveal what he's watching first in the Barbenheimer week.
The family vote was only ever going one way…

He shared a picture with his family, wife Akshara Murthy and daughters Krishna and Anoushka, from a multiplex. Rishi is in a grey sweater and holding movie tickets in his hand. His family is wearing pink, making it amply clear which movie they're heading into first.
Rishi captioned the post as, “The family vote was only ever going one way…Barbie first it is #barbenheimer.”
A user commented on the picture posted by Rishi and reasoned why he won't be watching Oppenheimer with his family. “Ain't Oppenheimer because of those cute kids under the age of 18,” they wrote, pointing out that Oppenheimer, based on the life of J Robert Oppenheimer, the father of the atomic bomb, is rated R.
Another user took one for the team and stated the obvious in jest. They wrote, "Lovely family outing, but where’s your pink, Mr. Sunak?”
According to the reports, Barbie collected $70 million on first day of release in the US.
These, however, also include $22 million from Thursday previews. It is expected to collect $150 million in the US through the weekend and another $120 million from as many as 70 worldwide territories.
