The nominations for the 2022 Razzie Awards have been revealed.
The ceremony that celebrates the worst movies of the year have created a special category for Bruce Willis alone this year – with his performances in ‘American Siege’, ‘Apex’, ‘Cosmic Sin’, ‘Deadlock’, ‘Fortress’, ‘Midnight in the Switchgrass’, ‘Out of Death’ and ‘Survive the Game’ all up for ‘Worst Performance by Bruce Willis in a 2021 Movie’.
The Razzie Awards will take place on March 26 in its traditional slot on the day before the Oscars.
Netflix’s ‘Diana: The Musical’ leads the field with nine nods including for Worst Picture, Worst Director, Worst Actor and Worst Actress. Both the Broadway show and the film were panned by critics and the stage production only lasted 33 performances before being closed.
Thrillers ‘Karen’ and ‘The Woman in the Window’ joined ‘Diana’ on the Worst Picture shortlist with ‘Space Jam: A New Legacy’ and ‘Infinite’ also making the list.
