<p>Following the non-nomination of his <em>Barbie</em> co-star Margot Robbie and the film&#x27;s director Greta Gerwig at the Oscars, Ryan Gosling issued a statement expressing his disappointment in the matter.</p><p>&quot;I am extremely honored to be nominated by my colleagues alongside such remarkable artists in a year of so many great films. And I never thought I’d being saying this, but I’m also incredible honored and proud that it’s for portraying a plastic doll named Ken,&quot; he said in the beginning of his statement as reported by <em>Variety.</em></p><p>&quot;But there is no Ken without Barbie, and there is no <em>Barbie </em>movie without Greta Gerwig and Margot Robbie, the two people most responsible for this history-making, globally-celebrated film,&quot; he remarked.</p><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-0" src="https://www.instagram.com/p/Cuo1cUft4p2/embed/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=540&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fent-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A0%2C%22os%22%3A357644.6000000015%2C%22ls%22%3A357109.700000003%2C%22le%22%3A357545%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="746" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-0" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><p>Ryan pointed out that the film would have not been possible without the major contributions of Margot and Greta.</p><p>&quot;No recognition would be possible for anyone on the film without their talent, grit and genius. To say that I’m disappointed that they are not nominated in their respective categories would be an understatement,&quot; he admitted.</p><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-1" src="https://www.instagram.com/p/C0KZSvCyCeP/embed/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=540&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fent-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A1%2C%22os%22%3A357661.6000000015%2C%22ls%22%3A357109.700000003%2C%22le%22%3A357545%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="879" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-1" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><p>The actor went on: &quot;Against all odds with nothing but a couple of soulless, scantily clad, and thankfully crotchless dolls, they made us laugh, they broke our hearts, they pushed the culture and they made history. Their work should be recognized along with the other very deserving nominees. Having said that, I am so happy for America Ferrera and the other incredible artists who contributed their talents to making this such a groundbreaking film.&quot;</p><p>Ryan was nominated as Best Supporting Actor while co-star America Ferrera was nominated as Best Supporting Actress.</p><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-2" src="https://www.instagram.com/p/C0uDNIsp8KN/embed/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=540&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fent-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A2%2C%22os%22%3A357674.700000003%2C%22ls%22%3A357109.700000003%2C%22le%22%3A357545%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="746" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-2" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><p>America also expressed her frustration about Margot and Greta not being nominated.</p><p>“I was incredibly disappointed that they weren’t nominated,” she told <em>Variety.</em></p><p>&quot;Greta has done just about everything that a director could do to deserve it. Creating this world, and taking something that didn’t have inherent value to most people and making it a global phenomenon. It feels disappointing to not see her on that list,&quot; the actress said about Greta.</p><div><a href="https://push.abs-cbn.com/2023/5/27/look-margot-robbie-ryan-gosling-in-new-barbie-trailer-430"><strong>READ: Margot Robbie, Ryan Gosling in new ‘Barbie’ trailer</strong></a></div><p>Meanwhile, America described what Margot achieved as an actress as &quot;truly unbelievable.&quot;</p><p>&quot;One of the things about Margot as an actress is how easy she makes everything look. And perhaps people got fooled into thinking that the work seems easy, but Margot is a magician as an actress in front of the screen, and it was one of the honors of my career to get to witness her pull off the amazing performance she did. She brings so much heart and humor and depth and joy and fun to the character. In my book, she’s a master,&quot; she remarked.</p>
