Golden Globes 2026 winners list: ‘One Battle After Another’ leads ahead of ceremony

The 2026 Golden Globe Awards are kicking off Hollywood’s awards season, honouring the year’s best in film and TV.

The 83rd Golden Globe Awards ceremony, hosted by comedian Nikki Glaser, begins at 8 p.m. E.T. at the Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, California.

Oscar frontrunner One Battle After Another leads all nominees with nine, including acting nods for Leonardo DiCaprio and Chase Infiniti and a directing nomination for Paul Thomas Anderson.

The Golden Globe Awards divides films between drama and musical or comedy in the top categories, and One Battle After Another is categorized as a comedy. Competing against DiCaprio for Best Actor are Timothée Chalamet for Marty Supreme and George Clooney for Jay Kelly.

Infiniti’s competition for Best Actress includes Cynthia Erivo for Wicked: For Good, Emma Stone for Bugonia and Rose Byrne for If I Had Legs I’d Kick You.

Close on One Battle After Another’s heels is Joachim Trier’s Sentimental Value, a Norwegian drama about a filmmaking family. The film’s eight nominations included nods for four of its actors: Stellan Skarsgård, Renate Reinsve, Elle Fanning and Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas.

Canadians made a strong showing in this year’s Golden Globe nominations, with Korean-Canadian director Maggie Kang earning a nod for best animated feature for her debut film KPop Demon Hunters. She’ll compete against Toronto’s Domee Shi, who co-directed the fantasy adventure film Elio.
