America Ferrera’s role in Barbie and Oscar nomination

The biggest role of America Ferrera’s career came in the form of Greta Gerwig’s Barbie. The film went on to have a historic box-office run which culminated in fame and acclaim for its cast members, including America Ferrera.

The film also featured a passionate monologue by Ferrera which was seen as the most important scene of the whole film and even got viral on social media platforms. The acclaim for the role resulted in a historic best supporting actress nomination for the Superstore actress. 

The nomination for Ferrera is one of the many Oscar nods that Barbie got across categories, proving itself to be a critical success as well, along with its Box-office acclaim. Though, a lack of acting and directing nominations for Margot Robbie and Greta Gerwig respectively are perceived as snubs by a section on the internet.
