Entertainment / Golden Globes 15 Big Golden Globes Snubs There are some 'shockers' on the list By Evann Gastaldo, Newser Staff Posted Dec 6, 2018 12:51 PM CST Copied This image released by 20th Century Fox shows Viola Davis, left, and Cynthia Erivo in a scene from "Widows." (Merrick Morton/20th Century Fox via AP) Golden Globe nominations were announced Thursday, and along with a surprise frontrunner, there were a number of snubs. USA Today, Entertainment Weekly, and Vanity Fair are among the outlets running them down: Ryan Gosling was not nominated as best actor for his role as Neil Armstrong in First Man—which was also not nominated as best drama. Black Panther was nominated for best drama, but stars Chadwick Boseman and Michael B. Jordan were denied best actor and best supporting actor nods. Atlanta, Donald Glover's FX series, won best comedy series at last year's Golden Globes, but wasn't even nominated this year. A Quiet Place earned rave reviews, but the horror film, directed by and starring John Krasinski, only received a nomination for best original score. Steve McQueen's Widows received zero nominations. Among those snubbed? Star Viola Davis. The timely drama The Hate U Give was also overlooked, including no nominations for its star Amandla Stenberg. This Is Us was also completely shut out. Though some of its stars did receive acting nods, The Handmaid's Tale was not nominated as best drama series. Robin Wright may have gotten a serious upgrade in the final season of House of Cards, but it didn't get her a best actress nomination. Mary Poppins Returns got a lot of nominations, but oddly, it failed to score a nod in the best original song category. Another film that was richly nominated but failed to snag one expected category: A Star Is Born, for which Sam Elliott did not receive a best supporting actor nod.
