The nominees for the 82nd Golden Globes were unveiled on Monday, with The Bear, Shogun, and Emilia Pérez among the contenders. The Globes, which divide major awards between drama and musical/comedy categories, often provide an unpredictable perspective on the Oscars race. This year is no exception, as no clear frontrunner has emerged.
Leading the pack is Emilia Pérez, securing an impressive 10 nominations. Other films making a strong showing include Jon M. Chu’s Wicked, Conclave, Anora, and The Brutalist, all earning multiple nominations. The varied list highlights a diverse range of talent and storytelling.
In addition to the nominations, the Golden Globes have already announced the recipients of two special accolades. Viola Davis will be honoured with the prestigious Cecil B. DeMille Award for her outstanding contributions to entertainment. Meanwhile, Ted Danson, celebrated for his role in Cheers and other notable work, will receive the Carol Burnett Award. These honours will be presented during a gala dinner on 3 January.
Comedian and actor Nikki Glaser will host the ceremony on 5 January, promising a lively evening celebrating excellence in film and television. The event will air live on CBS in the United States and on Citytv in Canada, making it accessible to audiences across North America. As anticipation builds, the Golden Globes are set to kickstart the 2025 awards season with glamour and excitement.
