“Blonde” honored as the worst movie – Tom Hanks also receives insulting awards

Oscar winners Tom Hanks (66) and Jared Leto (51) are now recipients of Hollywood’s ridiculous awards. The distributors of the “Golden Raspberries” or “Razzies” announced the “winners” of the not-so-serious awards in a video message on Saturday (local time). Traditionally, the ‘Razzies’ slander awards are announced a day before the Oscars.

Leto won the Worst Actor award for his role as the vampire anti-hero in the comic book adaptation Morbius. For Hanks, there were two “raids” for his supporting role as music manager Tom Parker in the biopic “Elvis”. One of them in the “worst movie combination” category, which relates to him and the latex face mask he wore in the movie. He received the second insult award for his “ridiculous” accent.

Double abuse for “Blonde”: Director and screenwriter Andrew Dominik’s Marilyn Monroe Netflix biopic outperformed the competition in the “Worst Picture” and script categories.

This time, the ridiculous award for “worst actress” didn’t go to one person, but to the distributors themselves. They responded to the controversy in January when they nominated 12-year-old Ryan Kiera Armstrong (“Firestarter”), among others. After heavy criticism, they reversed this and introduced an age limit of at least 18 years.

This year’s “Razzies Redeemer Award” went to Irish star Colin Farrell. The “Savior Prize” is for those who make up for previous failures with a good cinematic performance. According to the jury, Farrell (46) has now done that with his role in the tragic comedy ‘The Banshees Of Inisherin’, which could also earn the actor the Oscar for best leading actor on Sunday. In 2005, he was nominated in the “Razzies” as the worst actor for the monumental film “Alexander”.

The “Razzies” were created by filmmaker John Wilson as a counterpart to the glamorous Oscars. According to previous information from the group, more than a thousand members in the US and other countries vote for the ridiculous prices. (saw/sda/dpa)
