Golden Globes 2021 nominations list in full
Here are all the movies and TV shows that have been nominated for Golden Globes 2021
It's that time of year again! That's right, awards season is nearly here, and first up is the Golden Globes 2021, the nominees for which have been announced.
The ceremony will take place on February 28 at The Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, California, hosted by Amy Poehler – and Tina Fey, from New York City. This will be the first time the ceremony has been bi-coastal and should allow more New York-based nominees and presenters to still participate in a live setting with the pandemic restricting travel.
The Golden Globes normally take place in early January, but this year the ceremony has been delayed by nearly two months due to the delays and negative effects of Covid-19 on the film and TV industries. The awards honor the best in film and American TV from 2020, as chosen by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. Although the Golden Globes are not as prestigious as the Oscars, the nominations for the former gives us an idea of what to expect from the Academy Awards.
Read on to see the full list of who's been nominated for what at the Golden Globes 2021.
