Hollywood’s awards season officially began with the 83rd Golden Globe Awards, held on Sunday night at the iconic Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills. Known for its relaxed, champagne-filled atmosphere, the Golden Globes once again brought together the biggest names from the worlds of film and television under one glittering roof.
Comedian Nikki Glaser returned as host for the second consecutive year, steering the ceremony with her signature wit and humour. The night celebrated outstanding achievements across cinema, television, stand-up comedy and podcasts, making it one of the most diverse and eagerly awaited award shows of the season.
In the film categories, Hamnet emerged as the winner for Best Motion Picture – Drama, while One Battle After Another dominated the Musical or Comedy category. Animated feature KPop Demon Hunters stood out with a major win, further underlining the growing global influence of animation and pop culture crossovers. The Secret Agent claimed the Best Motion Picture – Non-English Language award, highlighting the continued rise of international cinema at global award platforms.
On the acting front, Jessie Buckley (Hamnet) and Wagner Moura (The Secret Agent) took home top honours in the drama categories, while Timothée Chalamet won Best Actor in a Musical or Comedy for Marty Supreme. Rose Byrne was recognised for her performance in If I Had Legs I’d Kick You, and Teyana Taylor earned acclaim for her supporting role in One Battle After Another.
Television also had a strong presence, with The Pitt winning Best Drama Series and The Studio taking home Best Musical or Comedy Series. Adolescence emerged as the top Limited Series, while individual performances by Rhea Seehorn, Noah Wyle, Jean Smart and Michelle Williams stood out among the winners.
Beyond film and television, Ricky Gervais won Best Stand-Up Comedy on Television for Mortality, while Good Hang with Amy Poehler was named Best Podcast, reflecting the expanding scope of storytelling and entertainment honoured by the Golden Globes.
With the Golden Globes setting the tone, Hollywood now looks ahead to the rest of the awards season, as industry favourites and emerging talents continue their race toward the Oscars and beyond.
