Among these other outings from the long-running franchise was an interactive experience called Barbie Epic Road Trip that was similar to fellow Netflix project Black Mirror: Bandersnatch where viewers were able to make choices as Barbie and her friends go on a cross-country road trip.
The streamer is also home to Barbie: Life in the Dreamhouse, a series of mockumentary-style shorts that follow Barbie and her friends and family living in a fictionalized version of Malibu.
