Steve McQueen's film Blitz, starring Saoirse Ronan, was notably absent from the Golden Globe nominations while Paul Mescal was not recognised in the Best Actor category for Gladiator II.
The shortlist for the 82nd Golden Globe Awards overlooked many hit projects and stars, and others were unexpectedly recognised.
The awards will take place at the Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, California, on Sunday 5 January.
Here are some significant snubs and surprises from this year's nominations:
Snubs
Blitz

The Second World War drama, in which Saoirse Ronan sends her young son to the countryside from a war-torn London, received no nominations. Along with missing out on an acting nomination for Blitz, Ronan was also overlooked for the recovery drama The Outrun.
Gladiator II
The historical epic received two nominations, but the Ridley Scott-directed sequel had been expected to score greater success. Denzel Washington received a nod for Best Supporting Actor in a Motion Picture, and the film is also up for Cinematic and Box Office Achievement.

However, Paul Mescal was not nominated for Best Actor and Ridley Scott missed out in the Best Director category. The original film won the Best Picture Golden Globe in 2001, and star Russell Crowe was nominated in the Best Actor category for his performance.
Meryl Streep
Only Murders in the Building stars Selena Gomez, Martin Short, and Steve Martin were all nominated for their leading performances in the series. However, Meryl Streep was snubbed, having been recognised during the nominations last year for her role as Loretta Durkin, the on-screen love interest of Short's character, Oliver Putnam. The show is also up for Best TV Series - Musical or Comedy.
Denis Villeneuve
The Dune: Part Two director was not recognised for his work on the sequel despite the epic scoring a nod for Best Picture. The film, starring Timothée Chalamet, Zendaya, Austin Butler, and Florence Pugh, also received a nomination for Best Original Score by Hans Zimmer.
Jon M Chu

Ariana Grande scored her first Golden Globe nod alongside Cynthia Erivo for their roles in Wicked, the film adaptation of the hit Broadway and West End musical. The film, which explores the friendship between Glinda and Elphaba before they become estranged, in the classic stories by L Frank Baum, was also shortlisted for Best Picture - Musical or Comedy and featured in the Cinematic and Box Office Achievement category. However, director Chu was not on the shortlist.
Surprises
Kate Winslet
It was not unexpected for Winslet to be nominated for Best Actress for her role as model-turned-war correspondent Elizabeth Miller in the biopic Lee - but recognition for The Regime was more of a surprise. Winslet was nominated for Best Actress in a Miniseries or Motion Picture - Television for her role as Elena Vernham, a dictator ruling over a fictional central European country.
Harrison Ford
Harrison Ford was last nominated for a Golden Globe almost 30 years ago, for his role in Sabrina, so it came as a surprise that he was recognised for his supporting role in the TV series Shrinking. The show stars Jason Segel, who is nominated for Best Actor in a Television Series - Musical or Comedy, as a grieving therapist who decides to become drastically more involved in his patients' lives. Ford plays his colleague Dr Paul Rhoades.
Billy Bob Thornton
A nod for Billy Bob Thornton in Landman, about billionaires fuelling an oil boom, was unexpected, as Taylor Sheridan shows do not often scoop major awards nominations. Two-time Golden Globe winner Thornton last picked up an award for Best Actor in a Drama Series for Goliath.
