Fans took to social media to express their dismay at the shock snubs.

Jordan, however, was best known for his roles on the small screen, including in hit sitcoms “Will & Grace” and “Call Me Kat,” which may have explained the oversight.Like Sorvino, the New York-born star also appeared in “Goodfellas.” However, like Jordan, he was best known for his small-screen TV roles which was the likely reason for his absence.Getty Images

He was arrested — and later acquitted — over the 2001 shooting death of his second wife.
