According to Deadline, Cruise returned his three awards at the HFPA headquarters this week because he feels the organisation is not doing enough to ensure diversity and inclusivity.

Cruise had won Best Actor awards at the Globes for his roles in “Jerry Maguire” and “Born On The Fourth Of July”, and Best Supporting Actor award for “Magnolia”.

His decision came on the same day that NBC announced they won’t broadcast the awards in 2022. The network has aired the awards since 1996.
