Robert Downey Jr., former Mayor of New York Rudy Giuliani and Netflix film ‘365 Days’ have all made the cut on this year’s worst of the worst list.
Downey Jr., who has earned a large fan base with Marvel’s ‘Iron Man’ and ‘Avengers’, could not impress the masses with ‘Dolittle’, which has been nominated as the Worst Picture, Worst Screenplay, Worst Director for Stephen Gaghan and earned the star the Worst Actor nomination.
The Neftlix film ’365 Days’, which has courted controversy for glorifying violence against women with its graphic scenes, is also in the running for Worst Picture, along with earning Michele Morrone the Worst Actor nom, while Anna-Maria Sieklucka has walked away with the Worst Actress nomination. Barbara Bialowas and Tomasz Mandes are also in the running as the Worst Directors for the film, while the film has earned a spot as well on Worst Screenplay.
Meanwhile, the former Mayor of New York, Rudy Giuliani, has been nominated for two Razzies this year, for his appearance in ‘Borat Subsequent MovieFilm’. The personal attorney to Donald Trump is vying for Worst Supporting Actor, and also Worst Screen Combo along with Bulgarian actress Maria Bakalova, who plays Borat’s daughter in the film.
