The 2024 awards season has begun with a bang, as the 81st annual Golden Globes took the spotlight. Oppenheimer emerged victorious as the Best Motion Picture in the Drama category, while Poor Things claimed the title in the Musical or Comedy category. Oppenheimer‘s success extended further, with Robert Downey Jr. winning Male Supporting Actor and Ludwig Göransson receiving recognition for Best Original Score. The brilliance of Poor Things continued to shine as well as Emma Stone triumphed as Female Actor in a Motion Picture Musical or Comedy for her outstanding performance.
Other notable winners also included the talented siblings Billie Eilish and Finneas O’Connell, who captivated audiences with their Best Original Song, “What Was I Made For?” from the Barbie soundtrack. Lily Gladstone‘s exceptional portrayal in Martin Scorsese’s Killers of the Flower Moon earned her the title of Best Female Actor in a Motion Picture Drama. The Holdovers saw numerous awards as well with Paul Giamatti being honored with Male Actor in a Motion Picture Musical or Comedy, while Da’Vine Joy Randolph kicked off the night with a well-deserved win for Female Supporting Actor in a Motion Picture from the same film.
This year’s Golden Globes introduced two new categories: Cinematic and Box Office Achievement and Best Performance in Stand-Up Comedy on Television, with the first being awarded to Barbie and the latter going to Ricky Gervais: Armageddon. Alongside these additions, the awards show underwent significant changes as the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA) dissolved due to scrutiny over its lack of diversity and questionable practices. Taking the helm, Dick Clark Productions, well-known for their annual New Year’s Eve broadcast in New York City, purchased the awards intending to transform them into a for-profit enterprise, effectively ending the HFPA’s involvement.
In terms of the voting body, this year’s demographics reflect a commitment to diversity. Golden Globes chief Helen Hoehne stressed their unwavering dedication to maintaining diversity within the voting body. She emphasized that the voters represent 76 countries, showcasing the global nature of their perspective and contributing to a rich and diverse selection of the best in motion pictures and television.
When are the 2024 Golden Globes and where to watch?
The 2024 Golden Globes took place at the Beverly Hilton Hotel on Sunday, January 7th, 2024 at 8 p.m. EST/ 5 p.m. PST and aired simultaneously on CBS and Paramount+.
Who is this year’s Golden Globes host?
Renowned comedian Jo Koy took the stage as the host of the highly anticipated 2024 Golden Globe Awards. Known for his numerous Netflix stand-up specials, Koy has also showcased his talent in notable productions such as the 2022 film Easter Sunday and the 2023 remake of Disney’s The Haunted Mansion. During his monologue, he revealed that he had only 10 days to prepare for the event, which suggests that the delay in finding a host may have been due to previous boycotts and issues with the HFPA.
Alongside Koy’s hosting, the event showcased a remarkable array of presenters. The star-studded lineup included luminaries such as Oprah Winfrey, America Ferrera, Simu Liu, Daniel Kaluuya, Michelle Yeoh, and Florence Pugh. To discover the complete list of winners and nominees, read below:
