‘Space Jam: A New Legacy’ and ‘Diana’ win big at this year’s Razzies
Space Jam: A New Legacy and the Netflix version of the Princess Diana Broadway musical, Diana, took home the most Golden Raspberry Awards at this year’s event.The 42nd annual awards – also known as the Razzies – is a tongue-in-cheek response to the Oscars which honours the worst films of the year. Recent winners include Cats, The Emoji Movie, and Sia‘s autism drama Music.Diana: The Musical, which made Cats “look like a masterpiece”, according to a Razzies press release, won in five categories, including Worst Picture and Worst Screenplay.It also picked up “tacky, gold-spray-painted statuettes” for Worst Actress (Jeanna de Waal as Princess of Wales), Worst Supporting Actress (Judy Kaye in a dual role), Worst Director (Christopher Ashley).Another big winner was Space Jam: A New Legacy, the follow-up to the Michael Jordan-starring 1996 film. More of a remake than a sequel, a Razzies press release referred to the Lebron James-starring film as a 115 minute commercial for all things WarnerMedia.
