The first category of the night at the 2017 Golden Globes was an unceremonious surprise as Aaron Taylor Johnson won Best Supporting Actor over the likes of Jeff Bridges and heavy favorite Mahershala Ali.

While Johnson’s role in the disturbing thriller Nocturnal Animals was cringe inducing, his performance lacked the nuance found in Ali’s mentor figure and drug dealer in Moonlight. Whether you call it a snub or an upset, it is certainly surprising, and it sets the stage for a night that could be rife with unexpected choices.
