A screenshot shared by an X user, @ssefmun, on March 12, 2025, claimed that Barbie's official YouTube account has uploaded all films based on their flagship character on the channel. The user's screenshot featured a lot of animated Barbie films, seemingly as a part of a YouTube channel with multiple views in each video.
The aforementioned user's post claimed that all the Barbie films were available to stream for free on YouTube via their official channel. They wrote in the caption:
"Hello =} ♥ just wanna share that Barbie Official YT channel uploaded bunch of the og movies for free! happy watching and you're welcomee -RL."
The aforementioned X post went viral on social media, garnering over six million views and counting. It also acquired over 170K likes and over 1K comments enquiring further details about how to access the films. However, the post's claims appear to be false.
The official YouTube channel of the company does not have all the animated videos available for free. Further, the X user @ssefmun's post did not include any link to any such channel where all Barbie films can be streamed. Upon searching on YouTube, no such channel was found as of writing.
Some Barbie animated films are available to stream on YouTube through unofficial channels and sources. However, these are not available under one designated channel on the platform.
Upon request, another X user, @enchantedjess13, shared a supposed link for the channel with all the films. However, the link displays a '404 error' when accessed, which means the page is no longer available on YouTube.
Many users claimed the page was taken down after it went viral on social media. According to a report by Design Rush, the channel had 242,000 subscribers when it could last be accessed. The report suggests that the animated films were available on the channel, with The Princess and the Pauper having 562,000 views.
However, in either case, they are no longer available to stream for free via the aforementioned channel. The channel was seemingly taken down due to unconfirmed reasons.
When was the last Barbie movie released?

In 2023, renowned director Greta Gerwig spearheaded the first live-action Barbie movie, starring Margot Robbie as the titular doll and Ryan Gosling as Ken. The film release was preceded by unique promotional activity as the film clashed with Christopher Nolan's magnum opus, Oppenheimer. The hype surrounding both films and their drastically different content material led pop culture aficionados to coin the term 'Barbenheimer.'
In Greta Gerwig's version, the titular doll is banished from the fantasy world to make a living in the real world alongside her partner, Ken. The film is a satirical representation of how women are treated in the real world and sees the popular doll from a feminist perspective.
Meanwhile, Mattel continued to partner with entertainment juggernauts to produce Barbie animated films. Their last release, Barbie and Teresa: Recipe for Friendship, was released on Netflix on March 6, 2025.
The range of animated films featuring the titular doll rose to prominence in the early 2000s after Mattel founded its own in-house entertainment segment in 2001. Some of the first films featuring the popular Mattel doll include A Nutcracker's Tale, Rapunzel, Swan Lake, Princess and the Pauper, Fairytopia, and The Magic of Pegasus.
These films and their successors portrayed the titular doll in various avatars, including a CEO, a princess, a swimmer, a mermaid, a fairy, and other such alter-egos.
According to reports via ScreenRant dating back to August 2024, Mattel and Illumination are in talks for an animated movie about the doll, which will be released in theaters. The plans arose after the massive success of Greta Gerwig's live-action version, which collected a reported $1.4 billion at the box office.
However, Gerwig and her leading lady, Margot Robbie, are reportedly not in talks to be a part of the film.
