Razzies Winners 2022: Diana the Musical + Lebron James
The winners of the Razzie Awards are in and this year they “they have nothing but crap” as the winners…
CelebnMovies247.com reports the Razzie Awards is continuing with tradition and announcing, the day before the Academy Awards, its picks for the worst in film from 2021.
As the Razzies puts it, 2021 had a “nothing but crap year” for 2021.
One of the biggest winners at this years award ceremony was Netflix’s filmed version of the Princess Diana Broadway musical, Diana, won the most Razzie Awards, scooping up five trophies.
The project, the stage production of which closed on Dec. 19, won worst picture, actress, supporting actress, director and screenplay.
Warner Bros.’ Space Jam revival received the second highest number of Razzie trophies, three, with star LeBron James named worst actor. Space Jam: A New Legacy also won worst screen couple and remake, rip-off or sequel. Indeed, the only one of the four Razzie Awards it was nominated for but didn’t win is worst picture.
Sometimes you have to realizes a sequel or reboot of a classic movie is NOT the answer! Hopefully Warner Bros. got the message NO MORE SPACE JAM MOVIES!
This year the Razzies also added an all-Bruce Willis category, with eight nominees, for worst performance by the actor in a 2021 movie. Willis’ performance in Cosmic Sin beat out the other contenders.
And the Razzies gave Oscar nominee Will Smith, who won four Razzies over the course of his career, its Redeeemer Award for his role in King Richard. In a video accompanying the Razzie winners announcement, the Razzies said other contenders for the Redeemer honor were Jamie Dornan (Belfast) and Nicolas Cage (Pig). Recent recipients of the Redeemer Award include Eddie Murphy in 2020 and Melissa McCarthy in 2019.
