'Avatar: The Way of Water,' 'Top Gun: Maverick' and 'Elvis' were nominated for best drama film at the upcoming Golden Globe awards, but few nominees commented on the honors, a sign of lingering fallout from a diversity and ethics scandal.

The “Avatar” and “Top Gun” sequels will face off against “Elvis,” Steven Spielberg’s semi-autobiographical film “The Fabelmans,” and “Tar,” the story of a manipulative conductor, for the top prize of best drama film. But the Globes were tainted after a 2021 Los Angeles Times investigation probed the association’s practices and revealed the organization had no Black members. Tom Cruise returned his three Golden Globe statues in protest, and longtime broadcaster NBC dropped the 2022 telecast.

On the best drama actor list was “The Whale” star Brendan Fraser, who has said he will not attend the Globes because he has accused a former HFPA president of groping him in 2003.Current HFPA President Helen Hoehne told The Hollywood Reporter last week that she respected Fraser’s decision but hoped the organization could “regain Mr. Fraser’s trust, along with the trust of the entire entertainment community.

Jamie Lee Curtis, a supporting actress nominee for “Everything Everywhere,” thanked audiences and the HFPA for embracing the sci-fi action-adventure film.
