While film fans will have to wait until Sunday to find out the winners of the 2025 Oscars, the worst in film this year, the winners of the 2025 Razzies, have been revealed.
Topping this year’s awards with three wins, including worst picture, is Sony’s critically panned box office bust Madame Web.

Madame Web also won worst actress for star Dakota Johnson and worst screenplay.
Johnson previously spoke out about her experience with Madame Web, saying the script radically changed from what she initially read and that she was unlikely to “do anything like it again.”

“It was definitely an experience for me to make that movie,” Johnson told Bustle in an interview that was published a few weeks after the film was released. “I had never done anything like it before. I probably will never do anything like it again, because I don’t make sense in that world. And I know that now. But sometimes in this industry, you sign on to something, and it’s one thing and then as you’re making it, it becomes a completely different thing, and you’re like, ‘Wait, what?’ But it was a real learning experience, and of course it’s not nice to be a part of something that’s ripped to shreds, but I can’t say that I don’t understand.”
Worst actor went to Jerry Seinfeld for his work in the Netflix Pop-Tarts movie, Unfrosted, which he also directed and co-wrote, with co-star Amy Schumer named worst supporting actress.
A number of films won two awards each: Joker: Folie à Deux, which led this year’s Razzie nominations with seven; Unfrosted; and Francis Ford Coppola‘s epic Megalopolis.
Coppola, who won worst director, joins a small list of stars, including Sandra Bullock, who have accepted their Razzie award, celebrating his “honor” on Instagram on Friday morning and brandishing it as a badge of pride.
“I am thrilled to accept the Razzie award in so many important categories for Megalopolis, and for the distinctive honor of being nominated as the worst director, worst screenplay, and worst picture at a time when so few have the courage to go against the prevailing trends of contemporary moviemaking!” he wrote in part. “In this wreck of a world today, where ART is given scores as if it were professional wrestling, I chose to NOT follow the gutless rules laid down by an industry so terrified of risk that despite the enormous pool of young talent at its disposal, may not create pictures that will be relevant and alive 50 years from now.”

Megalopolis‘ other win was for Jon Voight, who was named worst supporting actor.
Joker: Folie à Deux, the sequel to 2019’s Joker, which landed star Joaquin Phoenix the best actor Oscar, won two Razzies, including for worst screen combo of Phoenix and Lady Gaga and worst sequel.
Phoenix, like Coppola, now has the dubious distinction of having won both an Oscar and a Razzie.
In more uplifting news, Pamela Anderson nabbed the Razzie Redeemer award, given to a former Razzie winner who has gone on to be celebrated in future work. Anderson was named worst new star for Barb Wire in 1996, but she received critical acclaim and award recognition for her work in The Last Showgirl.
The Razzie Awards, which the organization calls $4.97 trophies, were determined by the votes of 1,217 Razzie members, which the organization says consist of movie buffs, film critics and journalists across 49 states and roughly 24 foreign countries. The Redeemer Award was determined by the Razzie Board of Governors.
