Canadian actor Ryan GoslingKen in the multi-award-winning “Barbie”, has expressed disappointment after the Hollywood Academy did not nominate the director of the film, Greta Gerwigand its protagonist, the Australian Margot Robbie to the 2024 Oscars. “To say that I am disappointed that they are not nominated in their respective categories would be an understatement,” he said in a statement published after yesterday the Academy nominated him as Best Supporting Actor for the aforementioned role.

No recognition would be possible for anyone in the film without their talent, courage and genius “added the protagonist of “La La Land”.
