Margot Robbie feels there is no need to be sad and disappointed because she did not get a nomination for the 2024 Oscar in the Best Actress category.
In the announcement of the 2024 Oscar nomination list, Barbie received eight nominations. Of the eight, Margot Robbie did not get the Best Actress category and Greta Gerwig did not get Best Director.
“There's no need to be sad when you understand that you are blessed this much,” said Robbie during the SAG-AFTRA discussion as reported by Variety, Thursday (1/2).
“Obviously, I think Greta should be nominated for director. What she did is a rare thing in a career, once in a lifetime,” he continued.
TAKE THE QUIZ
Margot Robbie and Greta Gerwig actually still received Oscar nominations because Barbie won Best Picture and Best Adapted Screenplay nominations.
Greta Gerwig is listed as the scriptwriter, while Margot Robbie is the producer who is usually listed as the winner in the Best Picture category.
Even so, the absence of Margot Robbie and Greta Gerwig in the actress and director categories still disappointed many people.
A member of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS), which organizes the Oscars, even called the incident “very patriarchal”.
“I feel sad about the recognition, which they very much deserve, but being ignored because it is so wrong,” the source told People some time ago.
The source said that most of the nominations for categories except Best Picture were the result of suggestions from various branches of the category.
The source admitted that usually the comedy genre factor could be an influence on success at the Oscars considering the history of the awards event.
