Hans Zimmer put his pedal to the metal while revealing his feelings about the last-minute decision to cut the Best Original Score category from the Golden Globes telecast.
“It feels a little bit ignorant,” the F1 composer told Deadline while walking the red carpet before Sunday’s ceremony began. “We are the psychological underbelly of the whole thing.”

Zimmer went on to say that he “wouldn’t talk” to the person who made the decision to cut the category from the show.
“The composer has such an important role in making films by the time we come to the music, the director has been through war,” Zimmer said. “Our first job is to remind him why he did this film in the first place… This is a room filled with filmmakers who understand the mechanics and understand when I come home after working on a film, my children don’t know who I am because I haven’t been home for months.”
On Friday, it was announced that the category had been cut from the televised show on CBS and Paramount+ in an effort to cut the runtime of the ceremony (the winner would still be awarded in the room on Sunday night at the Beverly Hilton).

Zimmer was nominated for Best Original Score for the racing film F1, along with fellow nominees Alexandre Desplat for Frankenstein, Max Richter for Hamnet, Johnny Greenwood for One Battle After Another, Ludwig Göransson for Sinners, and Kangding Ray for Sirāt.
The award was presented during a commercial break later in the ceremony and went to Göransson for Sinners.
