Carey Mulligan Says Actors ‘Are 100% Lying’ When They Say Awards Don’t Matter and ‘I’m Gutted’ Over Greta Gerwig’s Oscar Snub for Best Director


Carey Mulligan and Jeffrey Wright admit they were thinking abut getting Oscar nominations for their work in "Maestro" and "American Fiction."

It’s wicked,” Mulligan said, adding that “[actors] 100 per cent lying” when they say awards don’t matter and it’s just the work that counts. It’s a sentiment also shared by Jeffrey Wright, nominated for his first Oscar this year thanks to his acclaimed role in “American Fiction.” Initially, people didn’t know how to respond and then suddenly it took over the internet and now it’s become this enormous phenomenon where you can buy candles [on Etsy and Amazon] called Jacob Elordi’s Bathwater.”
