\nThe Hollywood Foreign Press Association showered awards praise on \u00ab\u00a0Vice,\u00a0\u00bb which received six Golden Globe nominations on Thursday. But it was a bad morning for everyone named Ryan (Gosling, Coogler and Reynolds) at the 76th annual awards show, which reveals its winners on Jan. 6 (NBC, 8 p.m. ET\/5 PT).
Here are the most notable snubs:
Ryan Gosling, Ryan Coogler and Ryan Reynolds. It was a tough year for everyone’s favorite Ryan. Ryan Gosling lost out on a nomination as astronaut Neil Armstrong in \u00ab\u00a0First Man\u00a0\u00bb (also overlooked for best drama). Ryan Coogler was passed over as the director of \u00ab\u00a0Black Panther\u00a0\u00bb (nominated for best drama). And Ryan Reynolds lost out as Wade Wilson in \u00ab\u00a0Deadpool 2.\u00a0\u00bb
\u00ab\u00a0The Grinch.\u00a0\u00bb The animated film version of the Dr. Seuss classic, with Benedict Cumberbatch voicing the Christmas-hating creep, has been a moviegoing favorite this holiday season. But it missed out on an animated movie nomination.
\u00ab\u00a0Atlanta.\u00a0\u00bb The FX series, created and starring Donald Glover, took best comedy at the Golden Globes last year, but failed to earn that nomination in 2018. Glover was nominated for best actor in a comedy, an award he won last year.

\u00ab\u00a0A Quiet Place.\u00a0\u00bb Director and star John Krasinski’s box-office hit ($330 million worldwide in box office), his first starring collaboration with wife Emily Blunt, has received the kind of rare critical raves for a horror film to warrant awards recognition (with an impressive 95% critical rating on Rotten Tomatoes). The film was nominated for movie of the year at the People’s Choice Awards, but only scratched out a best original score nomination.
\u00ab\u00a0Widows.\u00a0\u00bb With an all-star cast (including Viola Davis and Liam Neeson), Oscar-winning director Steve McQueen’s heist-drama seems poised for awards glory. But it received nothing at the Golden Globes, not even for best actress for Davis.
\u201cMamma Mia! Here We Go Again.\u201d With both \u00ab\u00a0A Star As Born\u00a0\u00bb and Queen biopic \u00ab\u00a0Bohemian Rhapsody\u00a0\u00bb moved to the drama section, there was room for another actual musical to move into the best comedy or musical category. Ten years ago, the original \u00ab\u00a0Mamma Mia!\u00a0\u00bb took two nominations, for best comedy or musical, and best actress for Meryl Streep. But the sequel was shut out in 2018.
Amandla Stenberg: (\u201cThe Hate U Give\u201d): Stenberg has earned raves for performance in the timely drama as student Starr Carter, who witnesses the fatal police shooting of her childhood best friend.
Hugh Jackman: Given that Jackman nabbed a best actor nomination last year for \u00ab\u00a0The Greatest Showman,\u00a0\u00bb it would have seemed that the beloved Aussie actor could ride into this year’s awards with a nomination for his serious political drama \u00ab\u00a0The Front Runner,\u00a0\u00bb playing Democratic presidential candidate Gary Hart. But he did not.
Meryl Streep: Sure, Meryl Streep has a smaller role as Donna in \u00ab\u00a0Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again!\u00a0\u00bb than she did in 2008’s \u00ab\u00a0Mamma Mia,\u00a0\u00bb which earned a best actress nomination. But this is three-time Oscar winner Meryl Streep, who has won eight Golden Globes. Any time she’s overlooked, it’s a snub.<\/p>\n
