Hanks triple threat at Razzie Awards
The Golden Raspberry Awards have announced its 2023 winners, and for the first time, the Razzies awarded themselves.
The satirical awards show honoring the worst of the worst in cinema kicked off Friday by awarding Tom Hanks the worst supporting actor trophy for what IndieWire called his “deliciously awful
... Kentucky-fried gold member” performance in Baz Luhrmann’s “Elvis.”
In the “worst screen combo” category, Hanks — paired with his “LatexLaden Face (and Ludicrous Accent)” — scored another Razzie. The worst remake/ rip-off/sequel award went to Disney’s live-action “Pinocchio,” also starring Hanks as Geppetto.
Sony Pictures’ comic flick “Morbius” also led the wins, scoring two Golden Raspberry Awards. Its titular star, Jared Leto, won the dubious honor of worst actor for what the Irish Times described as “taking a silly role absurdly seriously.” And his co-star Adria Arjona was named worst supporting actress.
According to a Trip to the Movies, Andrew Dominik’s Marilyn Monroe biopic “Blonde” was “deplorable, misogynistic and exploitative,” earning it the Razzie for worst screenplay. It also took home the big award for worst picture.
The Razzies caught a fair amount of flack for nominating “Firestarter” actor Ryan Kiera Armstrong, now 13, for worst actress. The Razzies committee publicly apologized, imposed age restrictions for worst performance nominees and replaced Armstrong’s name with its own on the ballot.
“For nominating someone who should not have been considered — a blunder that was put through
The Razzies awarded Tom Hanks, seen Feb. 3, the trophy for worst supporting actor for his “Elvis” role. the blender and pulverized from one corner of the internet to the other and all media in between — instead of handing out a worst actress statuette this year, we’re giving this Razzie, to the Razzies . ... Well, what can we say? We earned this Razzie,” the group said in the winners announcement video.
