Even Barbie’s Ken, Ryan Gosling, who’s nominated for Actor In A Supporting Role has said that he’s beyond disappointed to know that the two known personalities have not received Oscar nominations 2024. “There is no Ken without Barbie, and there is no Barbie movie without Greta Gerwig and Margot Robbie, the two people most responsible for this history-making, globally-celebrated film,” Gosling shared.
Netizens head to X to express their shock and disappointment after knowing Robbie and Gerwig’s snubs. Honestly, it’s quite surprising that a huge impact movie, with an amazing cast, especially Robbie who played Barbie, would not be given even a nomination for their iconic role.
