Barbie and the Diamond Castle is a 2008 direct to video Barbie film and is scheduled to be released in October, 2008 [citation needed].
This film is the latest in a series of computer-animated Barbie films. The series so far has sold over 40 million units and generated 700 million dollars in revenue.[1]
The film features the voice of Kelly Sheridan, who has been voicing the Barbie protagonist in all the CGI Barbie films to date.
As with the previous Barbie films, a line of toys, dolls, and other products were made based on and released slightly ahead of the film. The Toy Fair 2008 released images of some of the dolls to be released later this year. [2]
This film is not a part of the Barbie Fairytopia films; it returns to the Princess line of stories which included Barbie as Rapunzel and Barbie as the Princess and the Pauper. It is also being billed as Barbie's first "best friends" movie; it co-stars Teresa, a doll from the main toyline.
Plot
Far away, in a land of music and magic, live two beautiful girls. Liana and Alexa (Barbie and Teresa) are best friends who share everything-especially their love of singing. One day, while walking through the forest, the girls find a magical mirror. As they clean the mirror and sing, something amazing happens! A girl named Melody appears in the mirror's surface. Melody tells the girls about the secret of the Diamond Castle. The Diamond Castle, Melody explains, is the home of all music, where three musical muses once resided-until one evil muse, Lydia, tried to take the castle for herself.
In an act of safekeeping the other two muses entrusted the key of the Diamond Castle to Melody. And to keep the key safe from Lydia, Melody hid herself in the mirror. But now she can't get out. She needs Liana's and Alexa's help to free her from the mirror and to save the Diamond Castle. The two girls begin a journey that will take them far away from their homes. Along their way they make new friends-and foes. But will the power of friendship prevail?
