Barbie is forgotten in the Best Actress list and Ken is nominated for Best Supporting Actor at the Oscars

Am I just Ken? Ryan Gosling continues to reap rewards from his character in the film Barbie. Despite Margot Robbie – who plays the doll – was excluded from the list of Oscar candidates, Ryan saw his name among those chosen as best supporting actor for his character Ken.

The film’s soundtrack was also awarded: What was I created for?by Billie Eilish, e I’m just Kenplayed by himself Ryan Gosling, compete for the best song. Gerwig is not competing for the best director statuette, but she was remembered in the adapted screenplay.

Who doesn’t seem to have appreciated the success of Ken and the film at all? Barbie – which received eight nominations – was the director Oliver Stone. For him, Ryan Gosling I should aim for more “serious” films.

In an interview with CityAMthe director of Natural born killers said, “Ryan is wasting his time doing this bullshit for money. He should be making more serious movies, he shouldn’t be part of this infantilization of Hollywood,” he blasted.

‘Useless’

In July 2023, Ryan Gosling he commented that his daughters, Esmeralda Amada, 8, and Amada Lee, 7, reacted unexpectedly when he told them he would play Barbie’s boyfriend. In an interview with the magazine Peoplehe says: “I think they were confused as to why I would want to play Ken. They think Ken is a bit useless,” he said.

Despite this, the actor comments that his daughters helped him prepare for the character because, like many children, they are enchanted by the Barbie universe. It seems that the preparation worked.
