J. Kim Murphy This year’s Academy Award nominations are set to be announced Thursday, after being delayed due to the devastating Los Angeles fires.

As such, the annual Golden Raspberry Awards got to get ahead of the Oscars on Tuesday with their own crop of nominees, highlighting what its members believe to be the worst in film for 2024. “Joker: Folie à Deux” leads the field with seven nominations, while “Madame Web,” “Megalopolis,” “Borderlands” and “Reagan” are close behind with six nods apiece.

For “Joker: Folie à Deux,” the musical sequel to Todd Phillips’ Oscar-nominated DC Comics crime film “Joker,” landed nods in worst picture, director, screenplay and prequel, remake, rip-off or sequel.

Lady Gaga and Joaquin Phoenix are both up for worst actress and worst actor, respectively, as well as worst screen combo. The “Joker” sequel was poorly reviewed out of its premiere at the Venice Film Festival and wound up a box office bomb, grossing $206 million worldwide against a $200 million production budget.
