Sinners, Marty Supreme and One Battle After Another are among the films set to compete at the Golden Globe Awards on Sunday night.<\/p>\n
Frankenstein, Sentimental Value, Hamnet and Wicked: For Good are some of the other films going for gold at the ceremony in Los Angeles.<\/p>\n
A new category, best podcast, has been introduced this year, while Adolescence, The Pitt and The Studio are nominated in the TV categories. <\/p>\n
The Golden Globes are a major milestone of the film awards season, and take place with less than a fortnight to go until the announcement of the Oscar nominations (22 January).<\/p>\n
The Globes hand out more trophies than many other ceremonies, as they split their film categories by drama and musical or comedy.<\/p>\n
Timoth\u00e9e Chalamet, Emma Stone, Leonardo DiCaprio, Jessie Buckley and Michael B Jordan all have acting nominations this year.<\/p>\n
Here's everything you need to know ahead of this year's event. <\/p>\n
9 – One Battle After Another<\/p>\n
8 – Sentimental Value<\/p>\n
7 – Sinners<\/p>\n
6 – Hamnet <\/p>\n
5 – Frankenstein<\/p>\n
5 – Wicked: For Good <\/p>\n
4 – It Was Just an Accident<\/p>\n
The Golden Globe Awards will air on the CBS network in the US and also stream on Paramount+.<\/p>\n
Sadly, there is no way to legally watch the ceremony in the UK, but there will be coverage on BBC News throughout the night.<\/p>\n
The ceremony starts at 01:00 GMT (Monday morning) and usually lasts between three and four hours.<\/p>\n
It is broadcast live from the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills, California.<\/p>\n
One Battle After Another, about a former revolutionary whose daughter is kidnapped, leads the pack this year after becoming one of the most critically acclaimed movies of 2025.<\/p>\n
Its competition includes Sentimental Value, a Norwegian drama about two sisters who reconnect with their estranged father, a film director planning his comeback, after the death of their mother.<\/p>\n
Sinners, a vampire horror-drama set in 1930s Mississippi, was one of the first Oscar contenders out of the gate, launching to box office success shortly after last year's Academy Awards.<\/p>\n
Elsewhere, the screen adaptation of Maggie O'Farrell's novel Hamnet explores the family tragedy that many believe led William Shakespeare to write one of his most famous plays.<\/p>\n
A new adaptation of Frankenstein provides a more emotional take on Mary Shelley's novel about a mad scientist and the creature he creates, while blockbuster Wicked: For Good concludes the origin story of Elphaba, the wicked witch of the west.<\/p>\n
Kidnap drama It Was Just An Accident, one of the best films of this year's awards season and the winner of the top prize at the Cannes Film Festival, follows a man who seeks revenge on the former officer who previously tortured him in prison.<\/p>\n
And Marty Supreme follows a table tennis player in 1950s New York as he tries to stay financially afloat while making his name as an athlete. <\/p>\n
Other nominated films include conspiracy theory drama Bugonia, Korean black comedy No Other Choice, Brazilian political thriller The Secret Agent and animated musical smash Kpop Demon Hunters.<\/p>\n
Box office titans Timoth\u00e9e Chalamet (Marty Supreme) and Leonardo DiCaprio (One Battle After Another) will go head to head in a particularly heated race for best musical or comedy actor. Ethan Hawke (Blue Moon) is a possible dark horse.<\/p>\n
In best drama actor, Michael B Jordan (Sinners) has a strong chance, although the more international slant the Globes have taken in recent years suggest we shouldn't count out Cannes winner Wagner Moura (The Secret Agent).<\/p>\n
While the best musical or comedy actress field is led by seasoned pros such as Rose Byrne (If I Had Legs I'd Kick You) and Kate Hudson (Song Sung Blue), there's strong competition from relative newcomer Chase Infiniti (One Battle After Another).<\/p>\n
Best drama actress is much easier to predict – with Jessie Buckley (Hamnet) considered well ahead of even her strongest competitors such as Renate Reinsve (Sentimental Value).<\/p>\n
Supporting actor and actress contenders include Amy Madigan (Weapons), Jacob Elordi (Frankenstein), Benicio Del Toro, Sean Penn and Teyana Taylor (all One Battle After Another).<\/p>\n
US comic Nikki Glaser is returning to hosting duties after a barnstorming performance at least year's ceremony.<\/p>\n
She delivered an opening monologue that rivalled the Globe greats – Ricky Gervais, Tina Fey and Amy Poehler – roasting the A-list celebrities in the room.<\/p>\n
Hosting the Golden Globes, Glaser later said,<\/a> was "without a doubt the most fun I have ever had in my career".<\/p>\n But, Glaser told the BBC's Regan Morris earlier this week, she often feels intimidated by all the "star power" in the room, adding: "I blur my eyes when I'm on stage, I'll be doing that so hard on the night."<\/p>\n It's been nearly a year since most people watched the Netflix hit about a teenage boy accused of stabbing his classmate, and the series has already triumphed at the Emmys, Critics' Choice and National Television Awards.<\/p>\n But because many other awards events go more or less by the calendar year, Adolescence is only just being recognised at events such as the Golden Globes. <\/p>\n Expect to see even more of Owen Cooper, Stephen Graham and Erin Doherty at other events to come – such as the Actor Awards (formerly SAG) in March, and the Bafta TV Awards, which don't take place until May.<\/p>\n The two special prizes recognising lifetime achievement are usually handed out on the night, but this year they were awarded at last week at the inaugural Globes Eve ceremony.<\/p>\n Sex and the City star Sarah Jessica Parker received the Carol Burnett award, for outstanding contribution to television, while Dame Helen Mirren received the film equivalent, the Cecil B DeMille award.<\/p>\n During her acceptance speech, Dame Helen said<\/a> the prize had been "described to me as a career recognition".<\/p>\n "But," she continued, "I prefer to think of it as a life lived, a life survived, a life enjoyed, a life sweated, and a life carried on, hopefully."<\/p>\n In her speech, Parker thanked<\/a> the friends, colleagues and family who had supported her in a decades-long showbiz career, telling them: "You have been an integral part of an inconceivable life, it is a bounty, thank you."<\/p>\n An actor or film that wins at the Golden Globes won't automatically go on to win at the Oscars, but it can help solidify chances of a nomination. <\/p>\n As one of the earliest ceremonies in awards season, the Globes can provide a significant boost of momentum, as a victory or well-received acceptance speech will encourage more Academy voters to check out a particular film.<\/p>\n Stars such as Sebastian Stan, Demi Moore and Fernanda Torres all went on to secure Oscar nominations after their Globe wins last January (although Stan's was for a different film).<\/p>\n And movies such as Flow and I'm Still Here got their awards campaigns off to a strong start thanks to early victories at the Golden Globes, and both went on to win at the Oscars in the animated and international categories respectively.<\/p>\n Affectionately referred to as the "drunk uncle" of awards season, the Globes are a far less formal affair than the Oscars.<\/p>\n You can expect the celebrities to be in a relaxed mood and ready to have fun with their speeches – as long as they can survive being roasted by Nikki Glaser first.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n <\/a>Television<\/a>Film<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Winners and Sinners: What to expect from the Golden GlobesJust nowShareSaveSteven McIntoshEntertainment reporterShareSaveGetty ImagesMichael B Jordan is nominated for best actor for his performance in…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":7618,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"colormag_page_container_layout":"default_layout","colormag_page_sidebar_layout":"default_layout","footnotes":""},"categories":[107],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7617","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-bbc"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp1.niviyo.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7617","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp1.niviyo.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp1.niviyo.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wp1.niviyo.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7617"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/wp1.niviyo.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7617\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wp1.niviyo.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7618"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp1.niviyo.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7617"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wp1.niviyo.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7617"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wp1.niviyo.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7617"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Why is Adolescence still being nominated?<\/h2>\n
