The 2024 Academy Awards had a powerful In Memoriam segment on Sunday, but not every deceased star got a full moment of recognition.
During Sunday’s Academy Awards ceremony, actors, filmmakers and individuals from the Hollywood industry who died in the past year were honored during a touching part of the show.
However, fans noticed that some stars were left out of the main segment, which included an individual slide with their photo, name and caption. Instead, a group of stars is listed at the end of one common slide.
Among these people were actors Lance Reddick, Treat Williams, Ron Cephas Jones, Suzanne Somers and Burt Young, legendary screenwriter and producer Norman Lear and British director Terence Davies.
