Borderlands Is Up For Worst Movie And More At The Razzies

At the start of every year, awards season usually kicks off in Hollywood, with the previous year’s movies being nominated for the most prestigious industry accolades. Conversely, the poorest films of the year aren’t overlooked either. The Golden Raspberry Awards, often referred to as the Razzies, have announced their nominations for 2024, and Borderlands is a serious candidate for snagging some of these less-coveted awards.

In the Razzie Awards, Borderlands was put forward for six categories such as Worst Picture, Worst Director for Eli Roth, Worst Actress for Cate Blanchett, and Worst Supporting Actor nods for both Jack Black and Kevin Hart. Interestingly, Jack Black received a unique mention in the Worst Screen Combo category, acknowledging his character (or any other annoying characters) from Borderlands.

2024’s “prized” awards are up for grabs, and let me tell you, the race to win the title of Worst Picture is intense! Borderlands is fighting some tough competition with movies like Joker: Folie à Deux, Madame Web, Megalopolis, and Reagan. Even in the Worst Screenplay category, these films have a fierce rivalry, except for Borderlands. Kraven the Hunter managed to snatch that final spot. As for the Worst Actor nomination, Black’s portrayal of Satan/Santa in Paramount+’s Dear Santa has made it to the list. The Razzies will be given out on March 1st, so let’s see who takes home the honors!

In a meeting with investors last autumn, Lionsgate’s CEO, Jon Feltheimer, discussed the numerous issues faced in the production of Borderlands. Notably, he mentioned costly reshoots directed by Deadpool’s Tim Miller that changed the film from an R-rated movie to one rated PG-13.

For enthusiasts of Borderlands, here’s some exciting news: The video game series will carry on, irrespective of the movie’s outcome. In fact, Borderlands 4 is still in development, and a terminally ill fan was thrilled after getting to play it. While we anticipate its release this year, an exact launch date hasn’t been announced yet.
