Australian actress and comedian Rebel Wilson has been named Worst Actress at the Golden Raspberry Awards for her performance in the 2025 action-comedy Bride Hard.
The annual ceremony, often called the Razzies, highlights the least impressive films and performances of the year. Organisers criticised Wilson’s portrayal of a secret agent caught in chaos during a bachelorette weekend, describing it as an unconvincing attempt at an action heroine. Consequently, the criticism echoed reviews that followed the film’s release.
Moreover, Bride Hard struggled both commercially and critically. Critics pointed to its weak execution and lack of humour, despite its ambitious premise of blending action with comedy. Wilson’s co-stars, including Anna Chlumsky and Stephen Dorff, also received nominations in supporting categories, reflecting the film’s broader reception.
Competitive field and mixed industry impact
The Worst Actress category featured several high-profile nominees, including Natalie Portman, Michelle Yeoh, Ariana DeBose and Milla Jovovich, making it a competitive lineup.
Elsewhere, the sci-fi film War of the Worlds emerged among the biggest losers, earning multiple awards, including Worst Actor for Ice Cube, along with honours for direction and screenplay.
However, despite the Razzie win, Wilson remains a prominent figure in entertainment. She rose to global fame with Bridesmaids and later gained a strong fan following through the Pitch Perfect franchise.
Furthermore, her career spans acting, comedy, and producing, with roles in films like Isn’t It Romantic and The Hustle.
