At the Oscars, “Elvis” is one of the favorites in the running, but actor Tom Hanks brought the film two nominations for the Golden Raspberry (Razzie).
As the organizers of the trophy, which is repeatedly referred to as Anti-Oscars, announced today, Hanks, who plays the manager of rock ‘n’ roll legend Elvis Presley in the biopic, has been nominated for the worst supporting actor, among other things.
Hank’s “and his latex-covered face” are also nominated in the Worst Screen Couple category. In addition to his elaborate make-up, the organizers also highlight his “ridiculous accent” in the role of Elvis’ manager.
Hanks, 66, earned a nomination for a third Golden Raspberry Award for Worst Actor for his performance as Master Geppetto in the live-action Disney remake of Pinocchio.
In addition to “Pinocchio”, the Marilyn Monroe biopic “Blond”, the comedy “Good Mourning”, the fantasy film “The King’s Daughter” and the superhero film “Morbius” starring Jared Leto are nominated for the worst film of the year.
Last year, Leto received the Golden Raspberry for Worst Supporting Actor in House of Gucci. The Oscars will be presented in Hollywood on March 12th. The Golden Raspberries are traditionally awarded the night before the Oscars.
