Winter is in the air and the holidays are right around the corner, which can only mean one thing: Hollywood is ready for some awards glitz and glamor. With the winners of the Los Angeles Film Critics Association announced Saturday, the West Coast is raring for some red carpets, and tomorrow’s Golden Globe nominations announcement gets us one step closer to them.
Presented by “The Sex Lives of College Girls” creator Mindy Kaling and “Watson” star Morris Chestnut, the nominees for the 82nd Annual Golden Globe Awards will be revealed on Monday, December 9 at 8:15am ET/5:15am PT on “CBS Mornings.”
Airing on CBS this year on Sunday, January 7 and hosted by Nikki Glaser, this marks the first time the ceremony hasn’t aired on NBC in decades. NBC moved on from the ceremony in the wake of upheaval at the Hollywood Foreign Press Association in 2023. But CBS pounced and was more than happy to give the awards the appearance of a fresh start.
Indeed, since 2022, the HFPA has added 103 new voters, marking the first time voters based outside of the U.S. have been added to the voting pool. Voters came from 62 different countries, and combined with the current HFPA membership, the total Golden Globe Awards voting body is now 52 percent female and 51.5 percent racially and ethnically diverse. Dick Clark Productions, which originally produced the show, is now an entity of Penske Media Corporation (IndieWire’s own parent company), making them responsible for the event since 2022.
Contenders in the film categories of this year’s awards include Brady Corbet’s epic immigrant tale “The Brutalist,” Sean Baker’s modern reinvention of Fellini’s “Nights of Cabiria” with “Anora,” RaMell Ross’ formally-daring adaptation of Colson Whitehead’s “Nickel Boys,” and Edward Berger’s Vatican-set thriller “Conclave.” Most of these will likely be nominated across the drama categories, but as far as the comedy/musical selections go, “Wicked” has it pretty much sown up, though “Emilia Pérez” may just give it a run for its money after sweeping the European Film Awards this past Saturday.
On the TV front, new shows like FX’s adaptation of James Clavell’s “Shōgun,” which took home multiple Emmys, and Michael Schur’s new Netflix comedy “A Man on the Inside” look to break through, while staples like “Abbott Elementary” and “The Bear” seek to continue their strong track record of wins.
