These nominees are already Golden.
On Dec. 9, Mindy Kaling and Morris Chestnut announced the contenders for the 2025 Golden Globes, and while the ceremony itself is not until Jan. 5, the New Year will certainly begin with a lot to celebrate.
After all, Eddie Redmayne, Gary Oldman, Donald Glover, Billy Bob Thornton, Hiroyuki Sanada and Jake Gyllenhaal all earned the first nominations of the ceremony with nods for Best Actor in a Television Series — Drama.
This year’s ceremony, which will take place at the Beverly Hilton Hotel, will be hosted by comedian Nikki Glaser, following up Jo Koy divisive emceeing in 2024.
Indeed, some of Koy’s jokes — including one about Taylor Swift supporting Travis Kelce at NFL games — were polarizing, but his hosting slot was just one noteworthy moment from last year’s ceremony. For one, Selena Gomez and Emily Blunt each made headlines for supposed conversations they had with fellow guests fueling a lot of lip reading and speculation online, which was promptly shut down by both actresses in a silly photo moment a week later.

Elsewhere at the event, Timothée Chalamet and Kylie Jenner made their now-year-long relationship award show official by cozying up for a date night. Last year, Timothee had earned a nod for his performance as the titular character in Wonka.
And while Emma Stone may not earn any hardware herself this award season, she swept the Best Actress categories at several events, including the Golden Globes. After nabbing the Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy for her “Poor Things“ performance, she received uproarious applause from the crowd featuring pals like Jennifer Lawrence and the “Karma” singer (who herself was nominated for the Box Office success of The Eras Tour concert film).
“What an a****** am I right?” Stone joked of Swift to reporters after her win. “No, I’ve known her for almost 20 years, so I was very happy she was there and she was also nominated tonight, which was wonderful.”
As for other awards handed out last year? “Barbie” and “Oppenheimer” earned their fair share of hardware after their summer blockbuster successes — with the former nabbing the inaugural trophy for Cinema and Box Office achievement over Swift’s concert film, while the latter won for Best Motion Picture Drama.
Meanwhile, “Succession” naturally swept in its nominated categories, prompting another viral moment during Kieran Culkin’s acceptance speech, where he incited pseudo-beef with his category mate Pedro Pascal.
After delivering a kind-hearted speech where he dedicated his award to his mom, Culkin added, “Suck it, Pedro, sorry. Mine.”
If the nominees are any indication of what is in store, it appears the 2025 Golden Globes will be just as memorable. Keep reading for all of the nods.
