Francis Ford Coppola "Sacré" Wire Director at the Razzie Awards 2025 for Megalopolis

And the filmmaker accepted the prize! Madame Web is the worst film of the year.

While the Oscar ceremony will be held this Sunday, the Razzie Awards 2025 winners were announced yesterday. Unsurprisingly, it’s the awful Madame Web de Marvel and Sony which won the Prix du worst film of the year. But what we will remember above all is the “victory” of Francis Ford Coppola, designated worse director for Megalopolis.

Far from upsetting himself, the legendary filmmaker took this raid as a real gratitude coming to reward his audacity and his ambition to always renew the genre:

“I am delighted to accept raid in so many important categories for Megalopolisand this great honor of being a sacred director, worse scenario and worse film at a time when so little dare to go against the current cinema trends! “ he wrote on Instagram with malice.

“In this chaotic era, where art is noted as if it was professional wrestling, I chose not to follow the chilly rules dictated by a terrified industry at the idea of taking risks. An industry which, despite its immense reservoir of young talents, may not create films that will remain relevant and alive in 50 years.

And Francis Ford Coppola to compare the flop of his Megalopolis to that of Playtime,, by Jacques Tati, in 1967: “Let me keep myself alongside a great and courageous filmmaker like Jacques Tati, who has completely ruined himself to make one of the most loved failures in cinema. Thank you to all my brilliant colleagues who accompanied me in this artistic adventure. Let us remember that the box office is only a question of money, and that, like war, stupidity and politics, it has no place in our future. “

Note that the other huge flop of 2024, Joker: Folia with twowas also honored, sacred worse remake or suite while Lady Gaga And Joaquin Phoenix won the worst couple prize. But they did not react.
