Golden Globe nominations 2024 - live: Barbie and Succession lead pack with Oppenheimer close behind

Awards season is officially underway following the announcement of the 2024 Golden Globes nominations

The films and TV shows in contention for the annual ceremony were revealed in Los Angeles by Cedric the Entertainer and That '70s Show actor Wilmer Valderrama on Monday (11 December).

Films in contention for trophies at the 2024 ceremony include Barbie, which leads the pack with eight, followed by Oppenheimer (eight), Killers of the Flower Moon and Poor Things (seven each).

Meanwhile, in the TV categories, Succession is the most nominated series, with a total of nine, followed by The Bear and Only Murders in the Building, which have five apiece.

It’s a big year for the Brits, with nominations for Carey Mulligan, who stars in Bradley Cooper’s Leonard Bernstein biopic Maestro, and Emily Blunt for her role in Oppenheimer.

Elsewhere, Rosamund Pike snuck in a surprise nomination for her supporting turn in Emerald Fennell’s Saltburn.

It seems British stars will have more chance of winning in the TV categories thanks to nominations for Bella Ramsey, who plays Ellie in The Last of Us and Sam Claflin for Daisy Jones & the Six, as well as Imelda Staunton and Dominic West for thier respective roles in The Crown.

Next year’s ceremony also introduced two new categories: Best Cinematic and Box Office Achievement and Best Performance in Stand-Up Comedy. The former, which is debuted in the same year as the Barbenheimer craze, has led to a nomination for Taylor Swift for her concert film The Eras Tour.

Swift is not the only musician to be nominated: Billie Eilish received her first acting nomination following her role in Swarm.

This year’s nominations arrive after a huge membership shake-up for the ceremony’s voting body, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA), which, in 2022, was accused of a lack of diversity in a Los Angeles Times exposé.

At the time, the HFPA did not have a single Black member, but it has since expanded its membership and enforced what was described as a strict code of conduct among voters. This led to the approval of many celebrities who, one year after boycotting the event, decided to attend the 2023 ceremony.

According to reports, the Golden Globes are struggling to find a host.

CNN claims that Chris Rock and Ali Wong, as well as Will Arnett, Sean Hayes and Jason Bateman, who were reportedly approached to host as a trio, have all declined offers. A spokesperson for the Golden Globes declined to comment on the search for the host. However, a source close to the situation said there are “three very serious conversations” going on with potential presenters.

Hello!

09:03 , Jacob Stolworthy

The Golden Globe nominations are set to be announced today in what will be a precursor hinting at what will win Oscars in 2024.

Films expected to be named include Killer of the Flower Moon, Oppenheimer, Barbie and Past Lives.

The Golden Globes also award the best in the world of TV, also. Shows expected to be nominated include Succession, Jury Duty and The Last of Us

09:24 , Jacob Stolworthy

Last month, the Gotham Awards – the first film event on the awards calendar – took place, with many victors named during the ceremony believed to be ones that will be nominated today.

Find the list of films here.

The first hint at who will win Oscars in 2024 has arrived

09:51 , Jacob Stolworthy

The Golden Globes were the subject of a boycott in 2022 due to criticism over diversity within voting organisation the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA). The fallout led to Tom Cruise handing back his trophies.

Catch up on the story here.

Why are the Golden Globes being boycotted?

10:03 , Jacob Stolworthy

So this year’s awards race looks set to be a two-hander between Killers of the Flower Moon and Oppenheimer, with both Martin Scorsese and Christopher Nolan duking it out for Best Director, also.

But what other films will be in the running? The Golden Globes split categories into Drama and Musical/Comedy – so while Oppenheimer faced Barbie in the battle of the box office, Greta Gerwig’s film will face different competitors as it’ll be in the second category.

In fact, it looks as if Barbie will receive the most nominations with nods expected in the acting categories, as well as the production design and music categories, also.

Barbie is a near-miraculous achievement – movie review

Barbie’s biggest competitor

10:20 , Jacob Stolworthy

Barbie’s biggest competitors in the Musical/Comedy category will no doubt be Alexander Payne’s The Holdovers, which isn’t getting released in the UK until January.

It stars Paul Giamatti – if, not on career-best form, then near it – as a cranky history teacher at a remote prep school, who is forced to remain on campus over Christmas with a troubled student who has no place to go.

The little film that could

10:30 , Jacob Stolworthy

In the Best Film – Drama category, Past Lives cannot be overlooked. Celine Song’s debut film has very much proved itself as the little film that could, becoming an awards favourite following its premiere at Sundance in January.

It has a long way to go to beat Killers of the Flower Moon or Oppenheimer, but its placement as an awards season fixture is no less admirable.

Best Actress contender alert

10:40 , Jacob Stolworthy

Let’s take a second to acknowledge German star Sandra Hüller who stars in not one, but two potential nominees: the courtroom drama Anatomy of a Fall, and Jonathan Glazer’s harrowing The Zone of Interest.

Hüller would be a deserving nominee, especially for the former, alongside other contenders Lily Gladstone (Killers of the Flower Moon), Greta Lee (Past Lives) and Carey Mulligan (Maestro).

Bradley Cooper is back in the awards race

10:50 , Jacob Stolworthy

Maestro is Bradley Cooper’s Leonard Bernstein biopic – and his next attempt at winning awards following his (in my opinion, superior) directorial debut A Star is Born.

It’s set to be released on Netflix later this month and, while it’s proved divisive, there are those who were deeply moved by the film.

Let’s not forget...

11:00 , Jacob Stolworthy

Rounding out the potential nominees in the Best Film – Comedy/Musical category are Yorgos Lanthimos’s Poor Things and The Colour Purple, which is the second adpatation of the Alice Walker novel after Steven Spielberg’s in 1985. If you hadn’t guessed by the category, this version is a musical.

Poor Things stars Emma Stone in what many are calling an Oscar worthy performance. If competing in the Comedy/Musical category, she’ll be up against Barbie herself, Margot Robbie.

Category confusion

11:10 , Jacob Stolworthy

It seems as good a time as any to point out that Todd Haynes’ drama May December is not actually competing in the Drama category, but the Comedy/Musical category. So Natalie Portman and/or Julianne Moore will show up in those respective acting categories should they be nominated. Bizarre.

Best Actor – Drama

11:20 , Jacob Stolworthy

Bradley Cooper (Maestro), Cillian Murphy (Oppenheimer) and Leonardo DiCaprio (Killers of the Flower Moon) are category shoo-ins, but the other spots aren’t such sure bets.

Most deserving would be Andrew Scott, who steals the show in Andrew Haigh’s All of Us Strangers, and Colman Domingo, who shines in the otherwise not-so-great Rustin.

Capitalising on last year’s recognition for The Banshees of Inisherin is Barry Keoghan, who could sneak a nomination for Saltburn.

Best Actor – Comedy/Musical

11:30 , Jacob Stolworthy

This is an interesting category as several nominees here are typically ones that won’t get nominated at other ceremonies that don’t split the categories by genre.

While Paul Giamatti (The Holdovers) and Jeffrey Wright (American Fiction) seem like they’ll break through at the Oscars, others, including Matt Damon (Air) and Nicolas Cage (Dream Scenario), will get their time to shine at the Globes.

Thinking about it, it wouldn’t be surprising to see Timothée Chalamet get a nomination for Wonka, either.

Supporting categories aka the most fun of the lot!

11:40 , Jacob Stolworthy

The most fun categories each year (for this writer, anyway) is the supporting categories – and this year looks no different. Heightening this at the Globe sis the fact these ones are not split by genre.

While Robert Downey Jr seemed to be the early favourite, for his slippery role in Oppenheimer, May December’s Charles Melton has come from the outside to become a serious contender.

There is no world in which Ryan Gosling doesn’t get a nod for playing Ken in Barbie – and if Robert De Niro doesn’t get nomiated for Killers of the Flower Moon, there could be a revolt, especially considering he was criminally snubbed for Scorsese’s The Irishman in 2020.

Step forward, Da’Vine Joy Randolph

11:50 , Jacob Stolworthy

...and Best Supporting Actress seems to be going the way of Da’Vine Joy Randolph for her role in The Holdovers.

Randolph will likely be battling Emily Blunt (Oppenheimer) and The Colour Purple stars Danielle Brooks and Taraji P Henson.

TV titans to duke it out

12:00 , Jacob Stolworthy

Succession is absolutely the one to beat in the Best Drama category.

Other contenders include The Last of Us, The Crown, but the other spots are less sure.

Which news shows could break through? Odds suggest Netflix’s The Diplomat and Apple TV+’s Hijack.

If there was any justice, For All Mankind and Foundation would get recognition – but it seems unlikely.

The tightest race of 2024

12:10 , Jacob Stolworthy

Best Comedy Series is a much tighter race. The Bear is clearly the favourite, but it faces fierce competition in the form of Jury Duty, Abbott Elementary and the final season of Ted Lasso.

There’s also the much-loved Only Murders in the Building and also Poker Face, starring Natasha Lyonne.

But The Bear will probably sweep. While Jeremy Allen White and guest star Jamie Lee Curtis have wins, let alone nominations, secured, let’s hear it for Ebon Moss-Bachrach, whose Richie became the show’s best character in season two.

TV mop-up

12:24 , Jacob Stolworthy

There’s a third TV category at the Golden Globes – for Best Limited Series/TV Movie.

If anything’s going to sweep here, its BEEF, the Netflix show starring Ali Wong and Steven Yeun.

Apparently, Wong was asked to host this year’s ceremony, but declined...

Fargo’s a-go

12:30 , Jacob Stolworthy

Another name back in the awards race is Jon Hamm – this time for Fargo season five, which isn’t even out in the UK yet. If past scheduling is to go by, it’ll be here in January. I’ve heard that it is brilliant and very much a return to form.

Here come the Brits

12:44 , Jacob Stolworthy

Talking of the UK, here’s a full list of the British actors expected to be named today:

Film: Carey Mulligan (Maestro), Emily Blunt (Oppenheimer)

TV: Bella Ramsey (The Last of Us), Imelda Staunton, Dominic West (The Crown), Matthew Macfadyen (Succession), Brett Goldstein, Hannah waddingham (Ted Lasso), Idris Elba (Hijack), Rachel Weisz (Dead Ringers), Bel Powley (A Small Light)

12:55 , Jacob Stolworthy

We’ve just five minutes to go until the nominations start being announced!

And we’re off!

13:06 , Jacob Stolworthy

There’s a bit of a delay occurring – we’ll be pasting the noms as soon as they start being announced.

13:08 , Jacob Stolworthy

One of the organisers has encouraged the audience to applaud the nominees when they’re announced, saying: “This is the Golden Globes so no need to be tense about this.”

13:10 , Jacob Stolworthy

Three minutes to go, apparently. Hold your breaths...

13:15 , Jacob Stolworthy

The nominations will be following thick and fast, so we’ll be pasting them here when they’re announced.
