‘Wicked’ ‘Emilia Pérez’, ‘Anora’ and more Earn Golden Globes Nominations As Award Season Heats Up

Seemingly having weathered the various scandals that have plagued the organization and the voting body of the awards, the Golden Globe Awards are back to some measure of their former luster, and back in the business of rewarding what they see as the best of this past movie and TV season.

If anything, this year’s batch of movie nominees feel weighted towards the indie side of things, albeit several produced by the indie arm of big studios. Still, there were the big titles –– ‘Dune: Part Two’ present as always.

‘Challengers’ also showed up.

Despite its later arrival on the awards scene compared to some of the other nominees, ‘Bob Dylan, scored some notable attention.

And even though it boasts a seemingly brutal (pun entirely intended) three hours and 45 minute running time (including an intermission!), The Brutalist,’ also landed several nominations.

The new category this year was “Cinematic and Box Office Achievement” which, (deep breath) is defined as “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.”

Oh, and movies released after November 22nd get in based on projected box office and streaming views. Just in case you were wondering...

Left out? ‘Blitz.’

‘Denzel Washington’s scene-stealing role.

The 82nd annual Golden Globe Awards is set to air live from the Beverly Hilton on CBS and stream on Paramount+ on Sunday, January 5th.

On the TV side of the nominees, it was business as usual also as some heavy hitters (‘Only Murders in the Building') saw plenty of potential trophies added to the list.

Among the newcomers, ‘The Day of the Jackal’ was perhaps the most surprising new arrival, though it’s not all that shocking given the success of that show.

The Globes are also the place where network TV gets more of a look in, with ‘Matlock’ among those up for awards.
