So how did our predictions shape up?
However, we wrongly assumed that “Sinners” would pull ahead of eventual winner “Hamnet” in the Motion Picture – Drama lineup, though it did take home awards for Cinematic and Box Office Achievement and Best Original Score. (As for the Chloé Zhao-directed stunner, it also clinched Jessie Buckley’s run as this year’s Best Actress frontrunner.)
Some takeaways from the 2026 Golden Globe Awards
And that’s our show! A few quick takeaways while the ceremony is fresh in our minds:
- Given the Hollywood icons we’ve lost this year, from Robert Redford to Diane Keaton to Gene Hackman, we were admittedly surprised to find no “In Memoriam” held during tonight’s ceremony. However, host Nikki Glaser did pay tribute to the late, great Rob Reiner by donning a Spinal Tap cap during her evening farewell.
- The weirdest cameo of the night was no doubt those out-of-nowhere UFC fighters. The sweetest cameo? The matching baby bumps of “Sinners” costars Hailee Steinfeld and Wunmi Mosaku.
- We’re going to give a spirited tie for best presenting duo to “Heated Rivalry” teammates Connor Storrie and Hudson Williams (they even got Jeremy Allen White cheering for their charged banter) and to “Ocean’s Eleven” pals George Clooney and Don Cheadle. While ribbing Clooney onstage, Cheadle hilariously pointed out that this year’s winner, Timothée Chalamet, was three years old the last time George took home a Globe. (“Knock ’em dead, Batman!”) – CI
Chloé Zhao absolutely stunned by “Hamnet” win for Best Picture – Drama
A visibly shocked Chloé Zhao took the stage alongside producer Steven Spielberg and her “Hamnet” cast to accept the award for Best Motion Picture – Drama, beating out big guns like Ryan Coogler’s “Sinners.”
The filmmaker called out her old pal Coogler as an inspiration and referenced something that her lead actor, Paul Mescal, told her earlier in the day. “Making ‘Hamnet’ made him realize that the most important thing about being an artist is learning to be vulnerable enough to allow ourselves to be seen for who we are, not who we ought to be. And to give ourselves fully to the world, even the parts of ourselves that we’re ashamed of, that we’re afraid of…let’s keep allowing ourselves to be seen,” Zhao emotionally proclaimed. -CI
Another biggie for Brazil, Wagner Moura’s win makes the Best Actor race more interesting
It looks like the Best Actor Oscar race is officially between two of tonight’s big winners: Wagner Moura for “The Secret Agent” and Timothée Chalamet for “Marty Supreme.” – CI
Jessie Buckley gets a massive hug from Julia Roberts for her “Hamnet” win
Roberts might not like the Golden Globes set-up, but she certainly seemed to love Jessie Buckley’s devastating performance as a grieving mother in “Hamnet,” giving the Irish star a big swooping hug as Buckley made her way to the stage to accept the Best Actress in a Motion Picture – Drama award. “Julia Roberts, you are a hero to us all!” Buckley proclaimed from the stage, before giving equal praise to the rest of the category’s nominees. – CI
“The Studio” continues its Best Comedy sweep with another big win tonight
Having already ran away with the Emmy and the Critics’ Choice earlier this awards season, the Seth Rogen-led comedy added a Golden Globe to its trophy collection. Rogen individually thanked many of the series’ behind-the-scenes crew in his acceptance speech, from the hair and makeup department to the craft services team. – CI
“The Pitt” is this year’s Best TV Series – Drama at the Golden Globes
And, yes, Noah Wyle gave a quick hug to his old “E.R.” buddy George Clooney as he and the rest of “The Pitt” crew took the stage to accept their award. – CI
“Pluribus” hive rise! Rhea Seehorn wins Best Actress in a TV drama
Seehorn thanked all of the women in the room, including Queen Latifah, who got yet another unexpected shout-out from the stage. – CI
Oba! Brazil’s “The Secret Agent” is this year’s Best Picture – Non-English Language
The Kleber Mendonça Filho-directed thriller is also up for Best Actor for Wagner Moura as well as Best Motion Picture – Drama. (Frankly, this year’s international films could easily serve as the entire Best Picture lineup.) – CI
“One Battle After Another” gets a Best Director win for Paul Thomas Anderson
The night’s most-nominated film, “One Battle After Another,” clinched another victory with a Best Director – Motion Picture win for PTA: “You guys are being so generous to the film and to me, and I’ll take it!”
Prior to Anderson’s clearly moved speech, presenter Judd Apatow gave a mini-roast of the Globes, saying he had boycotted the ceremony for the past decade after since his 2015 film “Trainwreck” lost the Best Comedy award to Ridley Scott’s “The Martian.” “I can’t wait until later tonight when Best Comedy is won by ‘Hamnet’,” he joked. – CI
“Sinners” takes the win for Cinematic and Box Office Achievement of the year
First introduced in 2024, the Cinematic and Box Office Achievement category was created to honor commercially successful films. Thankfully, this year, it went to a film that was financially profitable, sure, but also creatively excellent: Ryan Coogler’s vampy phenomenon, “Sinners.” – CI
Timothée Chalamet is one step closer to that Oscar with “Marty Supreme” win
Acknowledging past years of leaving the Golden Globes empty-handed (the 30-year-old actor has been nominated four times in the last six years), Chalamet finally took home the Best Actor trophy for his titular performance as a ping-pong whiz in “Marty Supreme.” Those losses made tonight’s win all the “sweeter,” the star said. – CI
Rose Byrne erupts in tears upon winning Best Actress in a Motion Picture – Comedy
Adding to this season’s actress race, Rose Byrne claimed the Golden Globe for Best Actress in a comedy or musical for her bold work in “If I Had Legs I’d Kick You.”
Among the funniest reveals in her victory speech was that her parents purchased Paramount+ to watch the Globes from their native Australia, and that hubby Bobby Cannavale had to miss out on the evening’s festivities because he had to go to a reptile expo in New Jersey. Because of course. – CI
“KPop Demon Hunters” are Golden Globe winners for Original Song
Sorry, “Wicked” and “Avatar” — the most “golden” original song of the night was, fittingly, “Golden” from “KPop Demon Hunters.” “Never give up, it’s never too late to shine like you were born to be,” said singer Kim Eun-jae through tears. – CI
Amy Poehler’s “Good Hang” wins the first-ever Golden Globe for a podcast
Shortly after a cheeky clip of Nikki Glaser parodying Nicole Kidman’s iconic AMC commercials, Snoop Dogg presented the first Golden Globe for a podcast to, no surprise here, Good Hang with Amy Poehler.
“This is exactly how I pictured it, Snoop giving me the award!” the comedienne joked during her acceptance speech. (Speaking of Snoop, the rapper’s mere presence caused a notable stir among the audience, including a very tall standing ovation from Jacob Elordi.) – CI
“Adolescence” star Owen Cooper’s trophy collection keeps growing
Owen Cooper gave one of the most haunting performances of the year — and at only 14 years old, mind you — as a tormented young man in the Netflix limited series “Adolescence.” After taking home the Critics’ Choice Award and the Emmy (and becoming the youngest male actor to ever win one), Cooper was awarded the Golden Globe tonight for Best Supporting Actor – Television. “What an incredible journey me and my family have been put through,” the British teen said before proclaiming, “Bring on 2026!” – CI
“The Pitt’s” awards domination continues with another Noah Wyle win
Last week, Noah Wyle took home the Critics’ Choice Award for Actor in a Drama Series, and that winning stream continues tonight with the Golden Globe, “a truly humbling moment” for “The Pitt” star. “I don’t know how to say all of my gratitude for 54 years in 60 seconds,” Wyle began, before thanking “all the healthcare workers in the world” and his wife, who is celebrating her birthday today. – CI
The Best Supporting Actor race gets complicated with a Stellan Skarsgård win
Only a week after Jacob Elordi snagged the Critics’ Choice Award for his supporting performance as the monster in “Frankenstein”, Stellan Skarsgård just shook up the Best Supporting Actor race by claiming tonight’s Golden Globe for “Sentimental Value.” In his charming acceptance speech, Skarsgård claimed he didn’t think he would win because “I was too old!” – CI
Teyana Taylor wins first Golden Globe for “One Battle After Another”
The first Globe win for “One Battle After Another” goes to Teyana Taylor’s brazen supporting work as revolutionary Perfidia Beverly Hills. A tearful Teyana shouted out her babies upstairs (“They better be off their damn phones watching this!”) and director Paul “Let Him Cook” Thomas Anderson in her acceptance speech. – CI
Host Nikki Glaser roasts Leo, “Wicked”, Warner Bros. and more in opening monologue
After kicking off with a sharp joke that tonight’s Golden Globes ceremony is “the most important thing that’s happening in the world right now,” host Nikki Glaser quickly ran through good-natured ribbing on everyone from George Clooney (who is nominated tonight for “playing George Clooney” in “Jay Kelly”) to Leonardo DiCaprio (who won three Golden Globes “all before your girlfriend turned 30!”) to Warner Brothers, on which she opened audience bidding for five bucks. – CI
First-time nominee Paul Mescal on playing both William Shakespeare and Paul McCartney
Paul Mescal is a first-time nominee for portraying William Shakespeare in Chloe Zhao’s “Hamnet” and he talked with Variety about how his Bard performance informed his next major role: as Paul McCartney for Sam Mendes’ upcoming four-part Beatles biopic.
“They both definitely inform each other; [I’m in] the throws of it now with Paul, it’s such lovely thing now to reflect on what playing Will was like. It’s the dream version of doing something as pressurized as that.”
When asked if he has a speech prepared, the Irish star quipped: “I’ll just get up and sing. How insufferable would that be?” – CI
Julia Roberts fangirls over Jean Smart and calls the Golden Globes set-up “bizarre”
This year’s Golden Globes red carpet is a new physical format for the awards show, with a grand staircase that brings attendees up for those couture-flashing photo moments and then back down to address the press line.
And it sounds like Julia Roberts, who has been attending the Golden Globes regularly since her debut for “Steel Magnolias” back in 1990, is not a huge fan of the change. “I have never seen this scenario before and it’s a little bizarre, and kind of hot and crowded,” she quipped to Variety’s Marc Malkin.
One positive of the new format is that the “Pretty Woman” icon got a mid-interview run-in with “Hacks” great Jean Smart (“You look like a goddess, a Greek goddess!” Roberts gushed) as well as “The Testament of Ann Lee” star Amanda Seyfried, who called the red carpet “crazy but I like it.” (“You do?!” responded an exasperated Roberts.) – CI
Colman Domingo teases “Euphoria” season 3 and the Michael Jackson movie
Characteristically chic in custom Valentino, Colman Domingo is at the Globes tonight in support of “Wicked: For Good,” in which he portrays the iconic Cowardly Lion in a voice role.
But it’s two other high-profile projects that the actor teased during his red-carpet interview with Variety. First up is, of course, the long-awaited third season of HBO’s “Euphoria,” which he’ll get a peek of when he goes to do ADR soon on the new episodes. “We never got any scripts for the other characters, so it was kind of cool, you were in your own insular world,” he said of filming. “But I will be doing ADR soon, so I will get to see some stuff soon…Everyone’s giving incredible performance, I mean, look at the cast.”
He also gave some early insights on the upcoming Michael Jackson biopic, calling star Jaafar Jackson “a revelation” and saying viewers will by “incredibly moved, surprised and thrilled” by the project. “Being part of this film is extraordinary…if I can give some moments of humanity and wit and intelligence and humor, it’s such an honor being part of a film like this.” – CI
Eva Victor says “Sorry, Baby” to Christopher Nolan and talks “Heated Rivalry” boys
One of the most joyfully surprising nominations this year was for “Sorry, Baby” Eva Victor, who is up tonight for the Golden Globe for Best Actress in a Motion Picture – Drama.
Victor was spotted celebrating her much-deserved nod during pre-Globes parties this past weekend alongside the hunky cast of “Heated Rivalry,” she shared during the Variety red carpet pre-show. “There is no one who is doing it hotter, classier, smarter, more thoughtfully,” she said of the hockey romance’s leads Hudson Williams and Connor Storrie, the latter with whom she engaged in a “friendly dance-off” at Variety’s “Actors on Actors” bash.
And there was even more cause to celebrate when Victor recently got word that she had received a Directors Guild Award nomination for “Sorry, Baby,” relayed over the phone by none other than Oscar-winning filmmaker Christopher Nolan. The problem? Victor didn’t know it was him! “I’m sorry, I really love you. I didn’t know it was you. You mean everything, I’ll recognize you next time!” the actress-writer relatably rambled her apologies to Nolan during her red-carpet interview. – Christina Izzo
Who do you think will win the top film categories?
We’ve made our predictions — now it’s your turn. The Golden Globe Awards have a long history of swerving just when you think the path is set, and tonight’s top film races feel especially ripe for a curveball. So before the envelopes open, tell us: who do you think actually wins the top film categories?
How to stream Dame Helen Mirren’s acceptance speech from the 2026 ‘Golden Eve’
The “Golden Eve” is the kickoff event of the Golden Globes, and by the time you’re reading this, it already happened. Not that it comes with much mystery. The event was largely to honor Helen Mirren and Sarah Jessica Parker, with the Cecil B. DeMille Award and Carol Burnett Award, respectively.
If you just want the speeches, you can find them on the Golden Globes YouTube page. But if you want to watch the entire event, you can use one of the best live TV streaming services or Paramount+ to watch it on demand. – MM
Some quick, relatively safe Golden Globes predictions
Of course, the question on everyone’s lips going into tonight’s ceremony is “Who will win?” In the two big film categories, the tale of the tape couldn’t be more different. “One Battle After Another” is almost certain to win Best Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy despite arguably being a drama. Meanwhile, “Sinners” and “Hamnet” are in a tight battle for Best Motion Picture – Drama, despite “Sinners” literally having multiple musical numbers.
Though I rate “Hamnet” just higher personally, I’m going with “Sinners” here, and I won’t be mad if it wins. Frankly, all three films were incredible and deserve celebration.
On the TV side of things, I’d be shocked if “The Pitt,” “The Studio” and “Adolescence” don’t repeat their Emmy wins, as all three felt largely inevitable, save maybe “The Pitt,” which had to contend with “Severance.” Maybe “Pluribus,” which wasn’t out when the Emmys occurred, can play spoiler, but I doubt it. – MM
The Golden Globes are still trying to move beyond a checkered past
Let’s be clear, for most of the Golden Globes history, this awards show has been messy. It’s largely been a bunch of celebrities packed in a room, often drunk (or, in Jack Nicholson’s case in 2003, high on Valium), receiving awards from the nebulous Hollywood Foreign Press, which has been accused of everything from racist practices to accepting bribes. The low point was in 2022, when the ceremony wasn’t even televised due to boycotts.
The HFPA is gone now, and some diversity efforts have been attempted. In terms of the event’s integrity, things have undeniably improved. But there was something particularly entertaining about the messiness of the globes, probably best embodied in Ricky Gervais 2020 monologue.
Gervais was hosting for the fifth time in ten years in 2020, and it would be his last. Knowing this, he held back nothing, tearing into everyone he could, all with a beer at the podium. You can check out the full monologue below if you are nostalgic for when this award show was a total mess. – Malcolm McMillan
Early frontrunners revealed at Critics Choice Awards
Earlier this month, the 31st Annual Critics Choice Awards, another reliable predictor of the year’s Academy Award nominees, saw Timothée Chalamet win best actor for “Marty Supreme. He’s expected to beat out DiCaprio once again tonight given the intense sports drama’s success after a massive marketing push. Amy Madigan’s performance as Gladys in the demented modern fairy tale “Weapons” is nothing short of Oscar worthy, and at the rate she’s scooping up awards this season, I’m only getting more certain.
“One Battle After Another,” “The Pitt,” “Adolescence,” and “The Studio” were among the other big winners that night. “Sinners” led the pack among movies with 17 total nominations, while “Adolescence” topped the television categories with six nominations. We’ll have to wait and see if the Golden Globes follows suit. – AS
All of this year’s nominees
The competition is as stacked as ever this year. Paul Thomas Anderson’s black comedy “One Battle After Another” leads all film categories with nine nominations, including best motion picture (musical or comedy), best director, and Best Actor for Leonardo DiCaprio, his fourth shot at a Globe win. It won’t be easy, with Timothy Chalamet for “Marty Supreme” and George Clooney for “Jay Kelly” among the other early frontrunners.
Ryan Coogler’s blockbuster vampire Gothic horror “Sinners” is another top contender, and one I personally have my fingers crossed for. Meanwhile, Ariana Grande is up once more for a supporting actor prize for her almost uncannily pitch perfect performance as Glinda in “Wicked: For Good.” On the small screen, Mike White’s dark comedy anthology series “The White Lotus” dominates with six nominations, including best television series, but Netflix’s phenomenal limited series “Adolescence” is not far behind with five nominations. See our guide for the full list of 2026 Golden Globe nominations. – AS
Who’s hosting the Golden Globes?
Comedian Nikki Glaser returns to host the 83rd annual Golden Globe for the second consecutive year. Her “no-holds-barred” humor was a hit with audiences last year, with more than 10 million tuning in and several scathing celebrity roasts going viral. Though the standup comedian has already said there’s one star she’s hesitant to make fun of.
“I’m trying out my monologue around LA, at the clubs here, and just even any joke about Julia Roberts, they are not there for,” she said in a CBS interview. “You cannot make fun of America’s sweetheart. So, whatever I end up saying about her, that is the most fine-tuned joke that I’ve worked on so hard, because it is very delicate.” – AS
Here’s when you can stream the 2026 Golden Globes
Paramount Plus will stream the Golden Globes as well, but you’ll need a Paramount Plus Premium plan to watch it live tonight. If you have a basic membership, you’re stuck waiting until tomorrow to find out the night’s biggest winners and losers. – AS
Hollywood’s biggest party of the year is almost here
The 83rd annual Golden Globe Awards are just a few short hours away, but there’s plenty of red carpet glamour and predictions chatter to catch up on before the gala kicks off. Tonight’s ceremony honors the best in television, film and (for the first time in the show’s history) podcasting. The champagne-soaked cousin of the Academy Awards, with winners selected by an entirely different voting base of journalists and critics, it’s widely considered a bellwether for where this year’s Oscar race is headed. Though, as we saw last year, that’s not always the case, and what’s a lavish awards show without a surprise upset or two?
Red carpet coverage starts two hours before the ceremony, kicking off at 6:00 p.m. ET/3 p.m PT. We’ll be updating this blog live with everything you need to know about tonight’s Golden Globes, how to stream the ceremony, and the biggest news of the night. Stay tuned! – Alyse Stanley
