All Greta Gerwig-Directed Movies In Order
Greta Gerwig is among the present-day popular directors a good chunk of people know, and her range with riveting movies centered on complex women is one of her most significant strengths. As an actor and writer, Gerwig’s niche really does seem to be directing for those of us who love her specific vision in adding a nerdy touch to already relatable characters.
Many people might know her from Little Women(2019) or perhaps Barbie(2023), and with her adaptation of Narnia: The Magician’s Nephew(2027) releasing on Netflix next year, now’s the perfect time to catch up on the movies directed by Greta Gerwig in the order of their release.
Greta Gerwig is a co-director alongside Joe Swanberg in Nights and Weekends,and it’s an excellent movie to watch to see how her particular vision shines even when she’s partnered with another director. The story follows a couple in a long-distance relationship as they navigate through the toll it’s taking on their relationship. It’s a grueling, genuinely realistic exploration of long-distance relationships in a way that people wanting escapism might not love, but it’s excellent nevertheless.
At the same time, while it’s a bit obvious it’s a debut movie, it’s still one worth watching, especially at the beginning to see just how much Gerwig’s vision as a director evolves and changes. It can be especially perfect to start this now before The Magician’s Nephewreleases next year. On another note, if you’ve never seen Gerwig act and you only know her as a director, Nights and Weekendsfeatures her doing both in a riveting manner, which isn’t always easy to do.

There’s a moment in every movie where it clicks that an actor and a director are a match made in filmmaking heaven, and that happens almost instantly in Lady Bird.As a result, it’s not even remotely shocking that Gerwig goes on to cast Saoirse Ronan as Jo March in Little Women because the characters feel like two sides of the same coin.
Lady Birdis Gerwig’s first solo feature film, and it’s the one that got her a much-deserved directing nomination. For those of us in the industry, this was the movie that proved Gerwig’s chops as a director are just as incredible as her work as an actor.
It’s sharp, endearing, and the kind of coming-of-age film that feels like essential viewing in more ways than one. Ronan and Laurie Metcalf deliver incredible performances throughout, and the astute writing makes it a story that’s easy to remember. There’s a warmth in all of Gerwig’s movies despite how heavy the premise might feel, and that’s certainly the case here. If you grew up loving Pretty in Pink (1986), Lady Birdis a must-watch for this generation.

A couple of paragraphs aren’t nearly enough to describe the brilliance of Greta Gerwig’s Little Womenadaptation. Louisa May Alcott’s novel isn’t an easy one to take on, nor is it particularly seamless to condense into a single movie. Yet, Gerwig manages to capture the heart of every character as well as the complex dynamics between the March women. She takes their anger, heartbreak, and grief and ensures that each emotion is emphasized in her vision while the actors do their job in layering their respective characters.
When a movie holds profound heartache in its plot the way Little Womendoes, it’s rarely easy to rewatch. But this story has always been special despite the pain, and Gerwig’s directing adds a warmth to every scene that makes it indescribably picturesque. It’s easy to stay with the March family, and it’s easy to understand each of them intimately.
It’s the kind of movie that’s so rich with layers, you’ll find something new to appreciate with every viewing. The fall and winter seasons are especially a perfect time to rewatch, and if you adore Little Women (1994) as I do, there’s a good chance you’ll also love Gerwig’s version, too.

For many people, Barbieis the hit that put Greta Gerwig on their radar. The hilarious, deeply relatable adventures of the titular character came at a time when we needed her most, and from the first scene to the last, it was clear that no other director could’ve tackled the movie as perfectly as Gerwig. While Little Womenis still my favorite movie of hers, Barbiein many ways feels like her magnum opus. But at the same time, I don’t doubt that the true magnum opus of her career is still coming later on.
Barbieisn’t just a must-watch for girls who grew up loving the doll, but for anyone who’s ever felt weighed down by the existential dread of not knowing what comes next. It’s mostly entertaining, but what floors me is Gerwig’s vulnerable exploration of women and the expectations constantly thrust upon us.
America Ferrera and her monologue are an Oscar winner in my book, and if you’re feeling particularly down and need a hug in girlhood form, look no further. It might not be a perfect movie, but it’s undoubtedly brimming with heart. (And so many catchy one-liners.)

The trailer for The Magician’s Nephewis getting a lot of flak, but the movie’s ultimately been met with wild criticism since its announcement. Yet what people often forget about adaptations is that a new one doesn’t cancel out the ones that were there before, nor does it take away from the book. And frankly, as someone who’s a fan of Gerwig’s vision, I can’t wait to see what she does with the adaptation.
It looks vibrant, which is something that we’ve been missing these days, and the storyline also matters because this isn’t an arc we’ve seen in previous adaptations. Because Gerwig’s Little Womenis my favorite of all the ones we’ve gotten so far, I genuinely have full confidence that this one might be something we can all easily appreciate, too.
And if for whatever reason it doesn’t work, it’s not hard to applaud Gerwig for her choice to try various genres in her career. That’s precisely what makes for a riveting director, and why her movies are so easy to anticipate for those of us who are fans.
