Snook took the Best Supporting Actress gong at the private, low-key, non-televised and generally ignored 2022 Golden Globes.Snook has been widely acclaimed for her role as Shiv Roy in the acclaimed series Succession, which airs on Foxtel and Binge in Australia.It was the second Globe for the popular show with Jeremy Strong beating out his castmate Brian Cox for the Best Actor, TV (Drama) award.Nicole Kidman and Kodi Smit-McPhee are also in contention for the Globes.But there won’t be any acceptance speeches, nor a trophy handover, when the embattled awards are announced on Monday.The Golden Globes, traditionally regarded as the opening act of the annual awards season, won’t be televised this year after their American broadcast partner NBC pulled out of the 2022 event. Along with most of Hollywood.The formerly prestigious film and television awards ceremony became embroiled in controversy after it was revealed in February last year that its organisers, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA), had no people of colour in its membership. The HFPA members were also accused of allegedly unethical behaviour in accepting lavish trips to influence their Golden Globes votes after the Netflix series Emily In Paris unexpectedly garnered nominations for the 2021 awards following a luxury press junket. The major studios, led by Netflix, said they would not deal with the HFPA until it cleaned up its act and Tom Cruise returned the three Globes he has won over his career in protest. While the HFPA introduced a raft of reforms in the second half of 2021 aimed at improving diversity in its ranks and banning gifts in the wake of the scrutiny, it appears Hollywood thinks it’s too soon to go on with the show in 2022. When the 2022 Golden Globes nominations were announced last month, few actors or studio production houses did their usual social media posts or interviews to celebrate making the list.Being The Ricardos star Kidman politely posted a thank you on her Insta Story for her Best actor in a Motion Picture – Drama nomination but the movie’s producers Prime Video didn’t, instead acknowledging the rival Critics’ Choice nominations for the film announced the next day. The movies leading the Golden Globes nominations this year are Jane Campion’s The Power of the Dog – Smit-McPhee is up for Best Supporting Actor – and Kenneth Branagh’s Belfast, with both up for seven trophies.

While NBC has left the door open to bring the Golden Globes back on air in 2023, the sharply declining ratings and increasing irrelevance of ceremonies from the Oscars to the Grammys could signal the beginning of the end for all awards show. There will be no red carpet, ceremony or audience when the 2022 Golden Globe winners are “revealed” from the Beverley Hilton on Monday, with the HFPA unclear about whether they will stream the announcements or simply issue a press release.
