I just heard that the Academy has shortlisted ‘Good Afternoon’ in the Best Song category… Ryan Reynolds getting a nomination in the Best Song category would make the next year of my life unbearable.
And what does Ryan Reynolds say about all this? Of course, unsurprisingly, the 46-year-old star was quick to respond on Twitter, where he shared Jackman’s video and quipped:
I disagree. I think the ‘deepfakes’ that sang and danced for Will [Ferrel] and I would want to perform at the Oscars.
In the meantime, it remains to be seen if Hugh Jackman’s campaign works, as the Oscar nominations will not be announced until January 24. However, to the relief of the protagonist of the great showmaneven if good afternoon get an Oscar, this would not be for Reynolds, because in the Best Song category, the artists are not the winners, but the singer-songwriters and composers.
