This year has been a crazy adventure for the entertainment industry – to say the least. Yet, we have finally reached awards season. Last year’s Emmys were a test drive for how award shows can run in the era of COVID. The Golden Globes 2021 will be hosted by Tina Fey and Amy Poehler from opposite coasts. Fey will be broadcasting from New York City at NBC’s 30 Rockefeller Center at the Rainbow Room. Poehler will be in the home of the Globes at the Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, CA.
The Golden Globes 2021 nominations were surprising as many shows and films were included that were not predicted to be included.
Emily in Paris was nominated for Netflix, but Bridgerton, Netflix’s biggest series ever, was not. The inclusion of The Mandalorian made Star Wars fans happy, but the series has yet to take home any major awards despite its popularity. Schitt’s Creek ran the table with nominations, can it overrun the Globes the way it won at the Emmys?
On the film side, Hamilton was included in nominations, though will be excluded from the Academy Awards as they do not consider this to be a film, but a filmed live performance. Promising Young Woman is one of the most talked-about films of 2020, so its nomination for Best Motion Picture and a nomination for Carey Mulligan was expected and well-earned.
Check out below for the full list of nominations!
