Once you’re done choosing which Barbie character you are, it’s time to watch the film’s latest trailer.

Following a brief teaser that aped 2001: A Space Odyssey and gave very little away, we now have a second clip that seems to show what Greta Gerwig’s upcoming Barbie movie is actually about. According to the YouTube description, Barbie herself may be going through a “full-on existential crisis,” which may or may not convince her to head out into the real world. Whatever the actual premise is, the movie looks extremely fun, and in less than two minutes, the new teaser manages to pack in quite a bit of innuendo. I’ll never look at a beach the same way again.

It also has a stacked cast. Alongside Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling as Barbie and Ken, the movie also stars:

  • America Ferrera
  • Kate McKinnon
  • Michael Cera
  • Ariana Greenblatt
  • Issa Rae
  • Rhea Perlman
  • Will Ferrell
  • Ana Cruz Kayne
  • Emma Mackey
  • Hari Nef
  • Alexandra Shipp
  • Kingsley Ben-Adir
  • Simu Liu
  • Ncuti Gatwa
  • Scott Evans
  • Jamie Demetriou
  • Connor Swindells
  • Sharon Rooney
  • Nicola Coughlan
  • Ritu Arya
  • Dua Lipa
  • Helen Mirren

Whew. You’ll be able to see them all in plastic action when the Barbie movie hits theaters on July 21st.
