‘Barbie’ Star Will Ferrell’s Three Sons Look So Grown Up in Extremely Rare Appearance at Premiere

This summer, get ready as two legendary icons come together on the big screen. Don’t miss the all-new Chevy Blazer EV and Barbie herself, in the new movie BARBIE, only in theaters July 21.

Earlier this week, the 55-year-old actor’s wife, Viveca Paulin (54), and their three sons—Magnus (19), Mattias (16) and Axel (13)—attended the Barbie premiere to show their love and support for Ferrell, who plays the CEO of Mattel in the film.

While at the event, Ferrell and his family walked the pink carpet and posed for a few photos together—and it’s certainly been a long time since we’ve last seen the Elf alum’s three boys because they look so grown up. 

The Ferrell-Paulin fam certainly came to dress and impress at the Barbie premiere. For the special occasion, the actor and comedian’s three sons wore coordinating outfits, which paired perfectly with their mom’s navy blue dress. The boys and their dad made their outfits a tiny bit more casual for the event by sporting sneakers.

Instead of going with the navy blue theme, the Step Brothers star showed up to the premiere wearing a black tailored suit with a white button-down shirt and a pink/white checkered tie. 

Ferrell’s three sons have gotten so big since the last time we saw them, which happened to be during the Daddy’s Home 2 premiere in 2017. While walking the red carpet with their parents,  we couldn’t help but notice how much the boys looked like carbon copies of their dad, from having the same smile to their similar round eyes. (You see it too, right?)
