publive-imageRyan Gosling, who played the lead role of Ken in the biggest blockbuster of 2023, Barbie, received an Oscar nomination for "Best Supporting Actor" instead of "Best Actor." However, the actor is not disappointed for that, but he is disappointed because his co-star Margot Robbie (who played Barbie) and his director Greta Gerwig did not receive any nominations at the Oscars 2024. The actor's stylist released a statement on Ryan's behalf; read it below:

"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 incredibly honored and proud that it’s for portraying a plastic doll named Ken."

"But there is no Ken without Barbie, and there is no Barbie movie without Greta Gerwig and Margot Robbie, the two people most responsible for this history-making, globally-celebrated film."

"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.

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."
