Golden Globes: Nominations List

Emilia Pérez leads the the nominations for the 2025 Golden Globes, which were unveiled live at a press conference at the Beverly Hilton on Monday morning.

The film scored 10 noms, more than any other title in film or TV. That breaks the record previously held by a comedy or musical motion picture, surpassing Barbie, which scored a total of nine noms last year.

Emilia Pérez was followed on the film side by The Brutalist with seven noms, Conclave with six, and Anora and The Substance with five each. The Bear leads the TV nominees with five total mentions, followed by Only Murders in the Building and Shogun with four each.

Overall, Netflix leads all distributors with a total of 26 noms (13 in film, 23 in TV). A24 follows in film with 12 mentions, and HBO/Max comes in second in TV with 14. (Read more about the snubs and surprises as well as in-depth analysis of the noms.)

Mindy Kaling (The Sex Lives of College Girls) and Morris Chestnut (Watson) revealed the nominees across 27 categories, with the announcement streamed live on CBS News’ website, YouTube channel and mobile app.

The Golden Globes recognize achievements across film and TV, with categories for cinematic and box office achievement in film and best performance in stand-up comedy on television, which were introduced last year and are set to return this year.

The award for best cinematic and box office achievement includes eight nominees chosen from films that achieved “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,” according to the Globes’ eligibility rules. Films released after Nov. 22 through the end of the year “may qualify based on projected box office performance and/or streaming views from recognized industry sources.” Golden Globes voters will then determine the nominees and winners in this category “based on excellence” from among the films that meet the box office and streaming viewership criteria.

For this category, the Golden Globes has this year partnered with data company Luminate, owned by Penske Media Eldridge, a joint venture between Penske Media Corporation and Eldridge that also owns The Hollywood Reporter and Golden Globes owner and producer Dick Clark Productions. Luminate will provide streaming viewership data for all submitted films in the cinematic and box office acheivement category, with analysis done via Luminate’s Streaming Viewership product.  

Best performance in stand-up comedy on television, recognizes comedians who gave “performances of traditional stand-up comedy of at least 30 consecutive minutes, other than roles in television series, limited series, anthology series or motion pictures made for television” on “a recognized media platform (individual social media accounts do not qualify),” according to awards rules.

The 82nd annual Golden Globe Awards is set to air live from the Beverly Hilton on CBS and stream on Paramount+ on Sunday, Jan. 5, 2025 at 5 p.m. PT/8 p.m. ET.

Nikki Glaser will host the 2025 Golden Globes, and Emmy-winning producers Glenn Weiss and Ricky Kirshner are set to serve as showrunners, for the second year in a row. It was previously announced that Viola Davis will receive the Cecil B. DeMille Award and Ted Danson will receive the Carol Burnett Award, which recognizes TV excellence. Both Glaser and Danson also received noms on Monday morning.

The 2025 show will be the second consecutive Golden Globes to air on CBS after the Globes inked a five-year deal with the network.

This is also the second Golden Globes since its longtime backer, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, was replaced following the acquisition of all the HFPA’s assets, rights and properties by Dick Clark Productions and Eldridge. Dick Clark Productions now owns and produces the Golden Globe Awards.

Instead of the HFPA, a racially and ethnically diverse group of voters — made up of journalists representing countries from around the world — selects the nominees and winners.
