‘One Battle After Another,’ ‘Sinners’ Lead Golden Globes Nominations (Complete List)

Among the surprises: “Wicked: For Good” was snubbed for best comedy or musical, while Richard Linklater’s two 2025 movies made the cut

It was another strong morning for “One Battle After Another” and “Sinners,” which led nominations for the 83rd Golden Globes with eight and 7 nods, respectively. The nominations were announced on Monday, Dec. 8.

Both movies had already racked up a tidy tally of nominations over the past week from the New York Film Critics Circle Awards, the National Board of Review, the AFI Awards, the Critics Choice Awards and the LA Film Critics.

In the film categories, the titles called were mostly the ones expected, though with a decidedly international flair. Jafar Panahi’s “It Was Just an Accident,” Joachim Trier’s “Sentimental Value” and Kleber Mendonça Filho’s “The Secret Agent” made the cut in best drama, alongside “Frankenstein,” “Hamnet” and “Sinners.”

“One Battle” competed in the Comedy/Musical category, where one of the morning’s biggest snubs came: No love for “Wicked: For Good,” but lots for Richard Linklater, whose two 2025 films, “Blue Moon” and “Nouvelle Vague,” snuck in. As did Park Chan-wook’s “No Other Choice,” the fourth film not in English to crack the two best picture categories. Together, those films racked up a combined 15 nods.

This year’s Golden Globes are the third since the Hollywood Foreign Press Association was disbanded amid accusations of discrimination and improper behavior within the organization. In 2023, Penske Media Eldridge acquired all rights to the Golden Globes from the HFPA, and the telecast moved from its longtime home at NBC to CBS. In the new organization, more than 300 journalists and critics, most of them based outside the United States, vote for nominees and winners, replacing the former system determined by fewer than 100 L.A.-based full- and part-time journalists.

Hosted by Nikki Glaser, the 83rd Golden Globes will air live on January 11 on CBS and streaming on Paramount Plus.
