Daniel Kaluuya has been everywhere for me lately - Black Panther, Get Out and also in an early episode of Black Mirror, which I recently binge watched.

Jim Carrey won a GG for best actor in a comedy for Man in the Moon, which was really more of a drama.

I think this is just a device to get a film the best chance to win something.
