\n\tThe 2026 Golden Globe nominations are here, and with it are some wild, wonderful and unexpected picks\u2026as well as some favorites that don\u2019t make the cut. Check out our list of the biggest snubs and surprises below.<\/p>\n
\t\t\u201cWicked: For Good\u201d and \u201cJay Kelly\u201d miss best picture nominations\t<\/p>\n
\n\tTwo crowd-pleasers that seemed like shoo-ins stumbled at the last minute.<\/p>\n
\t\tSydney Sweeney snubbed for \u201cChristy\u201d\t<\/p>\n
\n\tDid the film\u2019s poor box office and small cultural footprint keep Sweeney from a nod?<\/p>\n
\t\tNo love for Bradley Cooper\u2019s newest film, \u201cIs This Thing On?\u201d\t<\/p>\n
\n\tNot even for Laura Dern\u2019s buzzy performance.<\/p>\n
\t\t\u201cSuperman\u201d left out of the cinematic and box office achievement category\t<\/p>\n
\n\tMaybe superhero movies need to clear $1 billion for consideration?<\/p>\n
\t\tJacob Elordi scores acting noms for two different projects\t<\/p>\n
\n\tThe hunky thespian was thought to get awards attention for his portrayal of The Creature in \u201cFrankenstein,\u201d but his work in the Australian miniseries \u201cThe Narrow Road to the Deep North\u201d also earned him a nod.<\/p>\n
\t\tEva Victor lands an acting nod for \u201cSorry, Baby\u201d\t<\/p>\n
\n\tThis year\u2019s little indie that could scored a big nomination.<\/p>\n
\t\tKathryn Bigelow and \u201cA House of Dynamite\u201d couldn\u2019t spark Globes attention\t<\/p>\n
\n\tThe divisive political thriller didn\u2019t attract enough fans in the voting body.<\/p>\n
\t\tNo love for \u201cThe Gilded Age\u201d\t<\/p>\n
\n\tThe sumptuous HBO series might have one of the most celebrated casts on television, but no nominations broke through.<\/p>\n
\t\tDual acting nominations for Amanda Seyfried\t<\/p>\n
\n\tSeyfried has had a busy year, but voters didn\u2019t forget her work on the miniseries \u201cLong Bright River.\u201d<\/p>\n
\t\tHelen Mirren\u2019s TV renaissance continues\t<\/p>\n
\n\tAfter getting a Globes nod in 2024 for her work on the Yellowstone prequel series \u201c1923,\u201d her work in the new series \u201cMobLand\u201d brought her back into the race.<\/p>\n
\t\tWunmi Mosaku snubbed for \u201cSinners\u201d\t<\/p>\n
\n\tDespite being the beating heart of the hit vampire movie and a Gothams win, Mosaku didn\u2019t earn a supporting nod.<\/p>\n
\t\tPodcasts: Nothing incendiary was f\u00eated\t<\/p>\n
\n\tIt was surprising that Joe Rogan didn\u2019t get a nom, given his ubiquity in the medium. And Ben Shapiro\u2019s advertising campaign didn\u2019t change hearts or minds, leaving a relatively innocuous group of nominees.<\/p>\n
\t\t\u201cBlue Moon\u201d earned a best motion picture nod\t<\/p>\n
\n\tWhile star Ethan Hawke has been surging to the top of the acting field for his work in \u201cBlue Moon,\u201d the film itself hadn\u2019t yet received the same amount of attention as his work.<\/p>\n
\t\tRachel Sennott didn\u2019t make the cut\t<\/p>\n
\n\tThe Globes love a rising star, but Sennott\u2019s work on \u201cI Love LA\u201d didn\u2019t draw that attention.<\/p>\n
\t\t\u201cKPop Demon Hunters\u201d gets a nod for box office achievement\u2026without even a proper box office release\t<\/p>\n
\n\tNetflix had a victory lap sing-along release, but that doesn\u2019t really count, does it?<\/p>\n
\t\tKatherine LaNasa and Shawn Hatosy snubbed for \u201cThe Pitt\u201d after winning Emmys for their work on the show\t<\/p>\n
\n\tAny buzzy show with a big cast can leave deserving actors in the cold \u2014\u00a0it\u2019s just surprising that it was these two actors.<\/p>\n
\t\tThe third \u201cKnives Out\u201d didn\u2019t make the cut for best motion picture \u2014 musical or comedy\t<\/p>\n
\n\tWhile the first two films got the nod, \u201cWake Up Dead Man\u201d was completely snubbed.<\/p>\n
\t\t\u201cThe Girlfriend\u201d arrives out of nowhere\t<\/p>\n
\n\tThe Amazon Prime Video limited series was barely discussed by pundits this season, and yet the show itself and star Robin Wright both received nominations.<\/p>\n
\t\tAshley Walters gets a spot for \u201cAdolescence\u201d\t<\/p>\n
\n\tObviously not the showiest role on a show full of great performances, but Walters did soulful work that\u2019s worthy of a nom.<\/p>\n
\t\tWhy are there so many mispronounced names EVERY year?\t<\/p>\n
\n\tMarlon Wayans, we love you, but c\u2019mon! Rehearse! <\/p>\n
