Oscars may have snubbed Greta Gerwig-Margot Robbie's duo in the major nominations, but the audience's unfathomable love for the pink-tastic live-action Barbieland has spoken for itself. On March 9, just one day before the 2024 Academy Awards, Letterboxd released its list of ‘Most Obsessively Rewatched Best Picture Nominees of the 21st Century.’
The Academy has released a new promo for the upcoming 96th Academy Awards on March 10 (March 11 in Bangladesh). The ceremony will once again be hosted by Jimmy Kimmel, and he also features in the new promo along with the cast of this year's awards season darling, “Barbie”.
Following her historic Oscar nomination, America Ferrera, best known for her roles in "Ugly Betty" and "How to Train Your Dragon”, is stepping behind the camera to make her feature directorial debut. The project, titled "I Am Not Your Perfect Mexican Daughter”, is an adaptation of Erika Sánchez's bestselling novel and is currently in development at Amazon MGM's Orion Pictures.
Margot Robbie, a native of Queensland, is the lead actor and producer of 'Barbie', which has received eight nominations in other categories at Oscars 2024.
