2025 Golden Globes Unveiled: Discover the Complete Winners List!

LOS ANGELES — The nominees for the 82nd Golden Globes have been announced, featuring standout titles like “The Bear,” “Shōgun,” and “Emilia Pérez.” This year’s nominations reflect a diverse range of films, each vying for recognition amid a competitive landscape.

Jon M. Chu’s “Wicked,” alongside “Conclave,” “Anora,” and “The Brutalist,” has generated considerable buzz. Leading the pack, “Emilia Pérez” claims the most nominations at ten. The distinct separation of top awards—drama versus musical/comedy—adds complexity to the race, obscuring clear frontrunners for the Oscars.

In addition to the film categories, the Golden Globes have confirmed this year’s honorees for lifetime achievement. Viola Davis will be the recipient of the Cecil B. DeMille Award, while Ted Danson is slated to receive the Carol Burnett Award.

This year contrasts sharply with the previous awards season, characterized by the dominant presence of blockbuster films like “Oppenheimer” and “Barbie.” Instead, the focus has shifted to more arthouse selections, heightening interest without a singular favorite emerging yet.

Mark your calendars—Nikki Glaser is set to host the ceremony on Sunday, January 5, at 8 p.m. Eastern. You can catch the live broadcast on CBS or stream it on Paramount+.

Anticipation is building, especially with CBS’s NFL coverage likely pushing back the start time of “60 Minutes.” The show will make its return on January 12.
