Golden Globes 2026: How To Watch, Nominees And More

LOS ANGELES, CA — Movie and TV fans, rejoice! Hollywood is buzzing again as the 2026 Golden Globes roll into Beverly Hills on Sunday, Jan. 11, igniting awards season with a glittering night that blends marquee star power and global storytelling.

Nikki Glaser returns for her second year as host, armed with the sharp wit and electric energy that made her historic solo debut a standout — all setting the stage for a night defined by the Globes’ signature champagne‑tower exuberance, a swirl of glamour, anticipation and celebration that only this awards party can deliver.

As the lights go up inside the Beverly Hilton, the contenders come into sharp focus.

“One Battle After Another” leads all films with nine nominations, including best picture as well as directing, acting and screenplay.

“Sentimental Value” follows with eight nods, with “Sinners” close behind at seven.

Guillermo del Toro’s “Frankenstein,” honored with five nominations, completes the year’s most‑recognized titles, each arriving with its own momentum as anticipation continues to build.

And the small screen is serving up its own slate of heavy hitters. “The White Lotus” leads the television field with six nominations, followed by “Adolescence” with five. “Only Murders in the Building” lands four nods, while “The Pitt” scores two.

With voting already complete, the suspense now lies in which of these standout contenders will turn nominations into Globes gold.

The acting races bring their own Globes shimmer, with Timothée Chalamet, Leonardo DiCaprio, Michael B. Jordan, Ariana Grande, Cynthia Erivo and Emma Stone in the mix. Chalamet arrives with fresh Critics Choice momentum, but on a night this loose and lively, any one of them could walk away with the win.

Adding another layer of intrigue to the race is a handful of stars entering the night as double nominees — among them Jacob Elordi, Amanda Seyfried and Jeremy Allen White.

The night also salutes two icons: Dame Helen Mirren, receiving the Cecil B. DeMille Award, and Sarah Jessica Parker, honored with the Carol Burnett Award. Their presence sets the stage for a ceremony celebrating both legacy and fresh competition.

Whether you're here for the red‑carpet looks, emotional speeches or surprise appearances, this guide has you covered for every glitter‑drenched moment.
