Downy Jr. mentioned the memorable speech given by America Ferrera's character in the film and also mentioned the underrated work Robbie does in the particular scene. "This is a weird non-sequitur, but Margot Robbie isn't getting enough credit, in my opinion- because America [Ferrera] has this amazing speech and she nails it," the "Iron Man" star said. "But it's the cut away to Robbie so actively listening. It's when I realize, oh, okay, now I see Greta [Gerwig, the film's director]'s really on to something here, but it was Robbie who had to trust [her]," he added. Greta Gerwig, who also directed the coming-of-age film "Lady Bird," was nominated for Best Adapted Screenplay for her work on "Barbie." However, film fans were also unhappy about Gerwig being left off of the list for the Best Director category. Robbie called Gerwig's work on "Barbie" a "once-in-a-career, once-in-a-lifetime thing," and proclaimed 2023 was "an incredible year for all of the [nominated] films."
