Greta Gerwig discussed her Oscars snub from the Best Director category for Barbie.
When the Oscar nominations were announced last month, many felt that it was unfair that Greta — who was nominated for Best Adapted screenplay with co-writer and husband Noah Baumbach — was shut out of the historically male-dominated category.
This makes it the second time that Greta was been nominated for Best Picture without receiving a nomination for Best Director as well, though Barbie was nominated for eight awards overall. Notably, Margot Robbie also failed to garner a nomination for her work in the titular role, despite costar Ryan Gosling receiving a nod from the Academy.
“Of course I wanted it for Margot,” Greta said in a recent interview with Time. “But I’m just happy we all get to be there together.”
