America Ferrera ‘Can’t Believe’ Her ‘Barbie’ Oscar Nom Is Real, Calls Greta Gerwig and Margot Robbie’s Snubs ‘Incredibly Disappointing’


America Ferrera celebrated her first Oscar nomination on Facetime with the 'Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants' and weighs in on the 'Barbie' snubs.

When Tuesday morning’s Oscar nominations were announced, “Barbie” star America Ferrera was snuggled in bed alone and watching on her phone as her husband Ryan Piers Williams drove their kids to school. The overwhelming emotion surrounding earning her first Academy Award nomination — for playing Gloria, the human lens through which “Barbie” is viewed in the $1.4 billion blockbuster comedy — has been shock. This year’s directing nominees are: Justine Triet (“Anatomy of a Fall”), Martin Scorsese (“Killers of the Flower Moon”), Christopher Nolan (“Oppenheimer”), Yorgos Lanthimos (“Poor Things”) and Jonathan Glazer (“The Zone of Interest”).
