Glasing Over the Globes…
Nikki Glaser will host the 82nd Golden Globes on January 5th, 2025, and Emmy-winning producers Glenn Weiss and Ricky Kirshner are serving as show runners, for the second year in a row. The 2025 show will be the second consecutive Golden Globes to air on CBS after the Globes inked a five-year deal with the network. This is also the second Golden Globes since its longtime sponsor, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, was replaced following the aquistions of all the HFPA‘s assets, rights and properties by Dick Clark Productions and Eldridge. Dick Clark Productions now owns and produces the Golden Globe Awards. The nominees are now selected by a racially and ethically diverse group of voters, made up of journalists representing countries from around the world.






A Golden Kick-Off…
The Golden Globes kick off the 2025 Awards season with the nominations announced on Monday, December 9, 2024 by Mindy Kaling and Morris Chestnut for the 82nd Golden Globe Awards.



A Race for the Gold…
This year’s nominations were full of surprises, as early predictions for front runner nominations to lead the race were thrown off by the 2025 list of Golden Globe nominees. The Golden Globes honors achievements in both film and television, and the film nominations were full of unexpected front runners this year! Leading the film nominations for the 82nd Golden Globe Awards is Emilia Pérez with 10 nominations, more than any other nominee this year in both film or TV. It also breaks the record previously held by a comedy or musical motion picture, surpassing Barbie, which had a total of nine nominations last year. In the film nominations Emilia Pérez was followed by The Brutalist, which recieved seven nominations, Conclave with six nominations, and Anora and The Substance with five nominations each. As predicted in the television category, The Bear leads the TV nominees with five nominations, followed by Only Murders in the Building and Shōgun with four nominations each.










Overall, among all of the distributors and studios nominated, Netflix leads with a total of 26 nominations, 13 in film, and 23 in TV. A24 follows in film with 12 nominations, and HBO/Max comes in second in TV with 14 nominations. Not only do the Golden Globes recognize achievements across film and television, last year the Golden Globes introduced categories for best cinematic and box office achievement in film and best performance in stand-up comedy on televison and make a return this year with fresh nominees.





The award for Best Cinematic And Box Office Achievement will include eight nominees chosen from films that meet the Globes’ eligibility criteria of “a gross box office receipt total of at least $150 million, of which $100 million must come from the U.S. domestic box office, and/or obtain commensurate digital streaming viewership according to recognized trusted industry sources within the qualifying year.” Films that are released after November 22 through the end of the year “may qualify based on projected box office performance and/or streaming views from recognized industry sources.” Voters for the Golden Globes will determine the nominees and winners in this category “based on excellence” from among the films that meet the box office and streaming viewership criteria.

For the category of Best Performance In Stand-Up Comedy On Television, the Golden Globes will recognize comedians who gave “performances of traditional stand-up comedy of at least 30 consecutive minutes, other than roles in television series, limited series, anthology series or motion pictures made for television” on “a recognized media platform (individual social media accounts do not qualify),” according to awards rules.

It was announced on November 20th, 2024, that Viola Davis will be this year’s recipient of the Cecil B. Demille Award at the 82nd Golden Globe Awards honoring her powerful storytelling and inspiring legacy in film and television, having delivered performances that will resonate for generations.

It was also announced on December 2nd, 2024, that Ted Danson will be the recipient of this year’s Carol Burnett Award at the 82nd Golden Globe Awards, recognizing his outstanding contributions to televison with a career spanning decades and countless iconic roles.

Golden Snubs…
As usual with all awards shows and the usual prediction beast, there are the snubs and surprises of the nominations and the Golden Globes weren’t without their own list for this year. A number of acclaimed, awards-hopeful films went into the 2025 Golden Globe nominations expected to land multiple nominations but underperformed relative to expectations. A number of films that were expected to land a series of nominations were snubbed including Babygirl, A Different Man, Nickel Boys, The Outrun, The Piano Lesson, The Seed of the Sacred Fig, Sing Sing, Blitz, The Room Next Door, September 5 and Saturday Night all only landed one nomination, despite racking up numerous critics prizes and nominations from the Gotham Awards, Independent Spirit Awards.













Other notable snubs were Gladiator II, which only recieved a nomination for the cinematic and box office achievement category and a supporting actor nomination for star Denzel Washington, despite going into the nominations announcement as a critical and commercial hit. The film was also predicted to pick up nominations for star Paul Mescal, director Ridley Scott, and a drama film nomination, but was snubbed for all three of those nominations. Another notable snub was for director Jon M. Chu, the director of Wicked whose film recieved four Golden Globe Nominations, as well as Dune: Part Two director Denis Villeneuve snubbed for Best Director, while the film received two nominations. And another surprise snub was the critical and commercial bomb Joker: Folie à Deux, which despite its dismal box office was predicted to at least pick up nominations for stars Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga in the sequel to the Oscar winner that garnered Phoenix an Academy Award for playing the Joker.













In the TV surprises and snub column Presumed Innocent was snubbed by the Golden Globes receiving only one nomination for star Jake Gyllenhaal, snubbing co-star Peter Sarsgaard as well as the series evn though the series became Apple TV+‘s most watched drama series less than a month after its debut which earned the original limited series a second season. Similarly, Jason Segal and Harrison Ford landed nominations for their roles on Shrinking, but the series was snubbed and wasn’t nominated, along with House of the Dragon‘s Emma D’Arcy who was nominated but the series was snubbed for a nomination. Ted Danson was also nominated for his role on A Man on the Inside, but the series was snubbed for a nomination in the comedy series category.

One of the biggest TV snubs was that of star Nicolas Alexander Chavez for Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story, while co-stars Cooper Koch and Javier Bardem and the show itself received nominations. And while Only Murders in the Building recieved four nominations, Meryl Streep was snubbed for her work on the series this season. Though The Diplomat recieved three nominations for stars Keri Russell, Allison Janney and the series itself, Rufus Sewell was snubbed in the nominations. Other TV surprises included a best drama actor nod for Billy Bob Thornton for his role in Landman, While the entire final season of Yellowstone was snubbed.
