The biggest snub here is easily Carl Lumbly Jr., who pretty much carried with the weight of Falcon and the Winter Soldier on his shoulders with his powerful performances as Isaiah Bradley. It’s crazy that he isn’t on any of the lists. Still, it’s a pretty good run for the studio all things considered.
