Margot Robbie is finally sharing her thoughts on how this year’s Oscar nominations panned out, which resulted in widespread disappointment after the “Barbie” star did not earn a nod in the lead actress category. “There’s no way to feel sad when you know you’re this blessed,” Robbie said at a special SAG-AFTRA screening on Tuesday night, according to Deadline. She later added she’s proud of the impact that “Barbie” had, saying, “We set out to do something that would shift culture, affect culture, just make some sort of impact.” “And it’s already done that, and some, way more than we ever dreamed it would. And that is truly the biggest reward that could come out of all of this,” she said. CNN has reached out to a representative for Robbie for further comment. The “Barbie” movie was 2023’s biggest blockbuster, raking in nearly $1.5 billion globally since its July release. The staggering box office results made the film’s director Greta Gerwig the first solo female director with a billion-dollar movie. (“Barbie” was produced by Warner Bros. Pictures, which like CNN is a subsidiary of Warner Bros. Discovery.)
