Cynthia Erivo, Wagner Moura shockingly left out of 2026 Actor Awards<\/p>\n

Cynthia Erivo became the centre of attention after the 2026 Actor Awards nominations were revealed. <\/p>\n

Many fans were surprised that she was left out, along with Wagner Moura and all foreign-language films and performances. <\/p>\n

People quickly started talking online about who got nominated and who did not.<\/p>\n

Cynthia already had been snubbed earlier this year at the Critics Choice Awards.<\/p>\n

The 39-year-old actress is still nominated at the Golden Globe, but she is not expected to attend. <\/p>\n

Last year, she got Oscar and SAG nominations for her role as Elphaba in Wicked, so missing out this year felt even more shocking. <\/p>\n

Her co-star Ariana Grande did get a supporting actress nomination for the sequel.<\/p>\n

Moura, who starred in The Secret Agent and won Best Actor at Cannes, was also not nominated. <\/p>\n

However, other big names were also left out included Adam Sandler for Jay Kelly, George Clooney, Dwayne Johnson for The Smashing Machine and the cast of Sentimental Value.<\/p>\n

Television nominations also surprised people, with The Last of Us only getting a stunt ensemble nod. <\/p>\n

Sterling K. Brown was nominated individually for Paradise but not with his cast. <\/p>\n

The Bear got a comedy ensemble nomination but Jeremy Allen White was not recognised individually.<\/p>\n

The Actor Awards are decided by committees of 2,000 members from SAG-AFTRA\u2019s total 22,000 members.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Cynthia Erivo, Wagner Moura shockingly left out of 2026 Actor Awards Cynthia Erivo became the centre of attention…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":223498,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[430,156,111,139,69],"class_list":{"0":"post-223497","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-celebrities","8":"tag-celebrities","9":"tag-entertainment","10":"tag-new-zealand","11":"tag-newzealand","12":"tag-nz"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/223497","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=223497"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/223497\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/223498"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=223497"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=223497"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=223497"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
