"He's not able to come owing to personal issues," one user remarked.

He lost his sibling a week ago. Not while filming." In response, The Hollywood Critics Association said, "He was initially shooting a movie, which is why he couldn't attend. His brother's death occurred afterwards, which is why he left the film. His PR confirmed this to us."
