Oscar 2024: Margot Robbie and Greta Gerwig absent from the nominations
It was this Tuesday, January 23, that the prestigious Academy revealed the nominations for the 2024 Oscars. If Barbie has collected eight (including best film, best adaptation, best supporting actor for Ryan Gosling and best supporting actress for America Ferrera), Greta Gerwig is not present in the list of nominees for best result, as is Margot Robbie in the list of the nominated actresses. .
A decision that many fans of the film starring the famous doll do not understand. And not only.
Ryan Gosling steps up to the plate
Ryan Gosling, the interpreter of Ken, who had the privilege of being nominated for an Oscar, said in a press release (via Variety) of not understanding the Academy’s decision to oust Greta Gerwig and Margot Robbie. If he says he is very honored to have been entitled to this recognition, made it clear that there would be no Ken without Barbieand that there would be no Barbie without Greta Gerwig:
The impact of this film would never have been the same without the talent, determination and genius of these women. To say that I am disappointed that they were not nominated in their respective categories would not be enough to express my feelings. Despite all the difficulties, armed with only a few expressionless, scantily clad dolls and fortunately without private parts, they were able to make us laugh, touch our hearts, influence culture and make history. Their work deserves to be recognized in the same way as that of other equally deserving candidates. That said, I’m really excited for America Ferrera and the other amazing artists who contributed their talents to make this truly groundbreaking film.
Ryan Gosling said. He also wanted to add his colleague, America Ferrera his grain of salt on this omission:
Greta has accomplished almost everything a director could do to deserve it. She created this universe and took something that had no intrinsic value to most people and made it a global phenomenon. It’s disappointing not to see her on this list. And what Margot has managed to achieve as an actress is simply incredible.
