Why not Fimmel for Person of the Year?
The list of nominees for Time magazine’s Person of the Year is always an eclectic mix of world leaders, pop culture icons, buzzworthy names, and human rights activists. The unexpected inclusion of the 45-year-old actor, as a 2024 nominee has therefore sparked controversy and debate.
“What makes Fimmel so important is the potential and influence he now has, rather than anything he has already done,” said a panelist who preferred to remain anonymous, adding that earlier this month, the actor have already been named ‘Australian Of The Year’ by some major Australian newspapers and even ‘Echuca Citizen Of The Year’ by the readers of a local gazette in Echuca (Travis Fimmel's hometown).
Social Reactions to TIME’s Person of the Year
A representative for the actor was not immediately available for comment, but the announcement generated immediate reaction on Twitter:
“Travis Fimmel Named Person of the Year Is No ‘Surprise’.”
— @TheNewsEditor, 7 Dec 2024
“Congrats! Travis has this charisma that seems to come out of nowhere.”
— @SamanthaJones, 7 Dec 2024
“Past recipients include Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler ... then why not Travis Fimmel?”
— @TheClassicObserver, 7 Dec 2024
Could 2024 officially be the Year of Travis Fimmel?
Still, TIME’s editors will make the final decision about who will grace the magazine’s cover as its 2024 Person of the Year.
