45 most unforgivable Golden Globes snubs: ‘The Color Purple,’ Taraji P. Henson, Jennifer Aniston, …

The 2024 Golden Globes nominations were announced on Monday morning (December 11), leaving several projected heavy-hitters for the upcoming Oscars off the slate. The most notable rejections were “The Color Purple,” which missed for Best Film Comedy/Musical and one of the movie’s stars, Taraji P. Henson, who was left off the ballot for Best Film Supporting Actress. The movie did manage to squeak out nominations for Fantasia Barrino in Best Film Comedy/Musical Actress and Danielle Brooks for Best Film Supporting Actress.

Other major contenders that won’t compete include Best Film Drama contenders “Saltburn” and “The Iron Claw”, the screenplays for “American Fiction” and “The Holdovers” and the latter’s director, Alexander Payne.

On the TV side, Jennifer Aniston missed out despite “The Morning Show” earning a bid for Best TV Drama. On the flip side, Natasha Lyonne earned a Best TV Comedy Actress nomination, but her new Peacock series “Poker Face” didn’t make the cut for Best TV Comedy. Other notable snubs were “A Small Light” across the board and “Abbott Elementary” contenders Sheryl Lee Ralph and Janelle James.
