Tom Hooper’s disastrously ill-fated adaptation of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s beloved musical received eight Razzie nominations: Worst Picture, Worst Actress (Francesca Hayward), Worst Supporting Actor (James Corden), Worst Director (Tom Hooper), and Worst Screenplay (Lee Hall, Tom Hooper).
Both Judi Dench and Rebel Wilson are Razzie nominees for Worst Supporting Actress.
And for Worst Screen Combo, Cats is nominated for both Any Two Half-Feline/Half-Human Hairballs, and Jason Derulo & His CGI-Neutered Bulge.
It’s sadly ironic that Cats leads the Razzies pack this year, because at one point, Universal Pictures somehow believed it could be an Oscar contender.
