Nominees Christian Bale & Russell Crowe Will Both Miss the Golden Globes - Here's Why

Two major stars (and former Oscar winners) that you won’t be seeing at the 2020 Golden Globes are Christian Bale and Russell Crowe.

The two actors are both nominated for awards this evening, but they’re unable to attend the show.

Christian unfortunately is sick with a “bad case of the flu,” according to Variety. He was out of the country while on vacation and doctors advised him not to fly home for medical reasons.

Russell is staying home in Australia, where wildfires are raging.

Christian is nominated for Best Performance by an Actor in a Motion Picture – Drama for Ford v Ferrari. Russell is up for Best Performance by an Actor in a Limited Series or a Motion Picture Made for Television for The Loudest Voice.
