The 2026 Golden Globe Awards nominations have dropped and this year’s list reveals a bold mix of clear frontrunners and surprising snubs. Leading the pack is One Battle After Another, which secured nine nominations, including Best Picture, Director and nods for all its major actors. Not far behind are Sentimental Value with eight nods, Sinners with seven, and Hamnet — along with Frankenstein — among other critical favourites.
The Globes buzz isn’t just about who made the cut, but also about who didn’t. Everyone’s favourite Wicked: For Good was notably kept out of Best Picture contention, a surprise given its high profile and the presence of its stars in other nominated categories. Meanwhile, Sinners‘ leading lady, Wunmi Mosaku, who played Michael B. Jordan’s love interest in the film was also snubbed, despite many noms in other categories. Sydney Sweeny’s name was also missing from the list for her role in Christy.
The 2026 Golden Globes is swiftly shaping up to be one of the most competitive awards’ ceremonies yet with favourites, under-the-radar gems and unexpected omissions all jostling for the spotlight. See the full list of nominations, below.
