‘Blonde’ tops nominations for 43rd annual Razzie Awards; Tom Hanks, Pete Davidson also make the list

As is tradition, the morning before they could get the call they’ve always wanted when the Oscar nominations are revealed, come the nominations for an award no actor would want: the Golden Raspberry.

The Razzies just revealed their picks for the 43rd annual salute to the year’s worst movies and performances, and “leading” the pack is Netflix’s Marilyn Monroe movie Blonde.

The movie might have earned a 14-minute standing ovation at Cannes last year, but it earned eight nominations for The Razzies: A pair of Worst Supporting Actor nods for Xavier Samuel and Evan Williams; a Worst Screen Couple for director Andrew Dominik “& His Issues with Women”; and the Worst Screenplay and Worst remake-ripoff/sequel category for Dominik.

Interesting, lead Ana de Armas, who played Monroe, was spared.

Other films to get a bushel full of the ol’ raspberry were the stoner comedy Good Mourning with 7, as if a 0% rating on Rotten Tomatoes wasn’t enough.

Disney’s live-action Pinocchio remake earned six nominations, including Tom Hanks, who this year was singled out for both Worst Actor in that film and Worst Supporting Actor for Elvis.

And while Pete Davidson may be lucky with the ladies, his movies didn’t fare as well: His voicework for Marmaduke earned him a Worst Actor nomination, while Good Mourning scored him a matching Worst Supporting Actor nom.

The 43rd Razzie Award “winners” will be revealed on Oscars Eve – Saturday, March 11.
