Until you’ve got been dwelling underneath a brilliant pink rock, you’ve got most likely heard that there is a new Barbie movie on the best way subsequent month. Advertising and marketing for the Greta Gerwig-helmed film is reaching fever pitch – and whereas there’s clearly a figuring out humour to the entire endeavour, a brand new French poster is proving significantly, um, risqué.

The brand new poster options Margot Robbie’s Barbie and Ryan Gosling’s Ken, together with a french translation of the now acquainted tagline, “She’s every little thing…. he is simply Ken”. However the translation itself takes issues in a considerably NSFW path. (In search of poster inspiration? Take a look at the very best print adverts of all time.)

 “Elle peut tout faire. Lui, c’est juste Ken,” reads the French model of the tagline. However ‘Ken’, in keeping with Hollywood Reporter, is a French colloquialism for a four-letter phrase that begins with ‘F’ and rhymes with ‘duck’. So in French, the poster reads “She is aware of every little thing… he simply is aware of find out how to fuck”. And, predictably, French Twitter is discovering it fairly hilarious.
