After years in the entertainment industry, it seems like Hollywood legend Al Pacino has had enough of the awards season!
According to hawk-eyed fans watching the Golden Globes ceremony on Monday, March 1, Pacino definitely caught some zzz’s while he waited for the Best Actor in a Drama Series award to be presented; he was nominated in the category for his role in Amazon Prime’s Hunters.

Other nominees included Jason Bateman for Ozark, Bob Odenkirk for Better Call Saul, Josh O’Connor for The Crown, and Matthew Rhys for Perry Mason.
As the nominees appeared on-screen over a Zoom call waiting for the winner’s announcement, Pacino was screenshotted by viewers with his eyes closed, as though catching a quick nap on his couch. Needless to say, Twitter caught on and proceeded to playfully roast the A-lister for the hilarious faux-pas.
“Al Pacino sleeping at the #GoldenGlobes is the most I’ve ever related to a celebrity,” tweeted one viewer, with another chiming in, “Al Pacino sleeping through a business Zoom party is the most relatable thing ever.”

In typical Twitter fashion, one user took a dig at Pacino and Martin Scorsese, who was caught sleeping at the Oscars 2020. “Choose your fighter: sleeping Al Pacino vs. sleeping Martin Scorsese.”
