A year ago, what were the odds that the top-grossing film out of Sundance 2024 would be one starring and executive produced by 93-year-old June Squibb?

Magnolia acquired Josh Margolin’s feature debut “Thelma” right at the end of the festival — one of a few acquisitions that closed during its run. Released in June, it’s grossed $9.1 million in the U.S./Canada. That makes it, for now, the top hit out of the 2024.

Why the “for now”? Steven Soderbergh’s “Presence,” a $5 million Neon acquisition also out of the Sundance 2024 Premiere section, debuts in wide release Friday. Although regarded as a niche title, it could pass $9 million.

“A Real Pain,” which Searchlight bought for worldwide release for $10 million out of the U.S. Dramatic section, stands at a $8.1 million domestic since its release November 1. Disney stopped reporting its grosses last weekend, suggesting it has topped out. (It has been available...

The State of the Race

If there is one part of the Golden Globes that is truly important to the acting races, it’s the show broadcasting a winner for some of the closest races. With the lead categories being split between Drama and Musical or Comedy, this year’s results impacted the Best Actor race on two levels.

Many went into the night with vestiges of the old Globes in their mind, predicting that “A Complete Unknown” star Timothée Chalamet had it in the bag, as he is currently the...

Blueberry pie-scented candles (Heretic). Emotion-themed Sugarfina candy boxes (Inside Out 2). Shiz University sweatshirts (Wicked).

That’s just a (literal) taste of some of the swag (aka promotional items) that have been sent out to voters this season by savvy awards campaigners. Lavishly bound screenplays, one-of-a-kind posters, T-shirts and the like are de rigueur for any self-respecting FYC team, and this season did not disappoint.

Disney-Pixar’s Inside Out 2 teamed up with luxury candy shop Sugarfina in an effort to remind voters to “consider every emotion” this Oscar season. All of your favorite characters from the box-office behemoth were represented in edible form, including Maya Hawke‘s Anxiety (peach bellini gummies), Phyllis Smith‘s Sadness (robin’s egg caramels), Ayo Edebiri‘s Envy (sour rainbows), Adèle Exarchopoulos‘ Ennui (birthday cake cookie bites), Amy Poehler‘s Joy (lemon shortbread cookie bites), Paul Walter Hauser‘s Embarrassment (rosé frosé wine gems...

Glen Powell’s starring role in Hit Man would be any actor’s dream. In the wildly entertaining new film from five-time Oscar-nominated writer-director Richard Linklater, Powell plays Gary Johnson, a tech-savvy philosophy professor who spends quiet nights at home with his cats when he’s not setting up wiretaps for the New Orleans Police Department. Through a series of unexpected, comedic events, he’s asked to pose as a killer for hire to help catch those looking to bump off their enemies. Gary, against all prevailing logic, excels at the job, inventing a host of personas. However, it’s Ron, the disarming, world-weary assassin who exudes confidence and cool, that sticks.

Powell went to great lengths to prepare for the role, which was inspired by a head-spinning real-life tale chronicled by journalist Skip Hollandsworth in the 2001 Texas Monthly article, “Hit Man.” “We got all of Skip’s research [including] Gary Johnson’s sting operations,...

It was at around 3 p.m. one Dry January afternoon in 2022 at West Hollywood’s famous-face-friendly San Vicente Bungalows that Glen Powell and Adria Arjona first met up to talk business over a couple of glasses of water. For 30 minutes they discussed Hit Man, a script that Powell had co-written with five-time Oscar-nominated director Richard Linklater, based on Skip Hollandsworth’s Texas Monthly article about a professor pretending to be a killer-for-hire in order to entrap the money-for-murder set. If this professional date went well, the two would unite to star as Gary Johnson, the would-be hit man, and Madison, a woman who almost hires him to kill her husband. “This [casting] is fully [dependent] on chemistry,” Linklater had warned Arjona over Zoom before the meeting with Powell.

Somewhere after minute 31 it became abundantly clear that more than sheer hydration was needed. Arjona recalls them deciding to have some...

The buzz surrounding James Gunn’s new Dcu doesn’t seem to die down anytime soon. After revealing Jason Momoa’s casting as the antihero Lobo in the franchise, the filmmaker has now left fans guessing on the casting of Wonder Woman by following Momoa’s girlfriend, Adria Arjona.

While the Hit Man actress has been a long-time fan favorite for the role of the Amazonian warrior, the current rumors appear to stem from fans reading too much into a small social media gesture and turning it into something bigger.

James Gunn sparks Wonder Woman casting speculations by following Adria Arjona

James Gunn has sparked speculations over the casting of Wonder Woman in his new DC Universe. The iconic character, previously portrayed by Gal Gadot in Zack Snyder’s Dceu, is expected to be recast as part of Gunn’s reboot.

Warning! Spoilers about Xo, Kitty season 2, episodes 6 and 8 ahead.

January 2025 is a treasure trove for returning Netflix TV shows, including the popular spinoff TV series of one of the streaming giant’s best rom-com movie trilogies of recent years. Netflix put romance stories front and center in the 2020s, whether those were set in an alternative historical period like Bridgerton, revolved around the festive season like Love at First Sight, or hilariously mixed romance and crime like Hit Man. The plethora of romantic comedies wouldn’t have been possible without the chart-topping teen rom-com contributing to the genre revival in the late 2010s, To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before.

Rotten Tomatoes has now awarded a movie that was shut out at the Golden Globes ceremony. The review aggregator web site has presented their Golden Tomato Awards to the best-reviewed titles of the year annually for the past quarter-century. Previous picks for their biggest prize, Best Movie, have included 2023's Best Picture Oscar winner Oppenheimer, 2022's Top Gun: Maverick, 2021's Spider-Man: No Way Home, 2020's Portrait of a Lady on Fire, and 2019's Avengers: Endgame, representing an eclectic mix of big-budget blockbusters and well-regarded arthouse cinema.

In 2025, Rotten Tomatoes is presenting the 26th annual Golden Tomato Awards, honoring the best movies and television shows of 2024. This comes relatively early in the 2024-2025 awards season, sandwiched between the Golden Globes ceremony on January 5 and the 2025 Oscar nominations, which will be announced on January 19 after a two-day delay amid the ongoing Los Angeles wildfires.

The State of the Race

After the majority of nominations for precursors have been announced, the frontrunner for the Best Adapted Screenplay Oscar happens to be one of the scripts that was ineligible for a WGA Award nomination.

Though people are still hesitant to say “Conclave” will win Best Picture, the consensus after the film’s Best Screenplay win at the Golden Globes (and Peter Straughan’s speech), is that his adaptation of the 2016 Robert Harris novel is the contender to beat.

But even on the adaptation side of things, directors...

It has been a while since we’ve seen Wonder Woman in theatres, and it is such a shame that we never got to see the planned third installment with Gal Gadot in the lead. With James Gunn’s revamped franchise, DC Universe will introduce a new future for the character, and that goes with the fact that we are getting a new star for the role.

As the filmmaker indirectly confirmed that a Wonder Woman project would soon land on the franchise, he also talked about his method of casting for the role, which involved only hiring professionals to star in his films.

Overall production in Greater Los Angeles Film LA increased by 6.2% to 5,860 shoot days from October through December, FilmLA said in its latest report published on Wednesday.

However the fourth quarter was not enough to push 2024 level with or above the prior year. The film office reported overall annual production fell 5.6% year-on-year with 23,480 shoot days and was impacted by runaway production, industry contraction, and slow post-strike recovery.

2024 is the second least productive year behind 2020, when Covid disrupted production everywhere.

Most production types tracked by FilmLA achieved gains in the fourth quarter, except reality TV, which registered its ninth consecutive quarter of year-on-year decline,...

After a couple of postponements in consideration of the ongoing wildfires in California, the Writers Guild of America announced on Wednesday the nominations for the 2025 WGA Awards honoring film, TV, and several other mediums.

As always, the guild’s film nominations come with the caveat that any script not written by a guild member or under a WGA collective bargaining agreement was deemed ineligible, so major screenplay Oscar contenders like “The Brutalist” and “The Substance” were left out. What was nominated in their stead is the real indicator of some titles that are still not out of the awards race just yet.

The primary example on the Original Screenplay side is “Challengers,” which was just shut out of the BAFTAs the same day the WGA Awards nominations arrived. While the film’s best shot at an Oscar nomination is still for Best Original Score, “Challengers” screenwriter Justin Kuritzkes has been...

Anora, A Complete Unknown, Challengers, Hit Man, and Wicked are among the 2025 Writers Guild of America Awards nominees.

In Best Original Screenplay, Anora and Challengers are up against A Real Pain, Civil War, and My Old Ass. The Best Adapted Screenplay lineup features A Complete Unknown, Dune: Part Two, Hit Man, Nickel Boys, and Wicked.

The nominations were announced Wednesday, a week after the guild postponed its scheduled Jan. 9 announcement due to the Los Angeles wildfires.

As previously reported, dozens of scripts — including several top Oscar hopefuls — were ineligible for consideration this year. A screenplay is ineligible if it’s produced outside of the WGA’s collective bargaining agreement or written by a non-union member.

The ineligible adapted scripts were Golden Globe champ Conclave (by Peter Straughan), Emilia Pérez (by Jacques Audiard), I’m Still Here (by Walter Salles), Inside Out 2 (by Meg LeFauve and Dave Holstein with a...

Despite having to postpone its announcement due to the turmoil currently being faced in Los Angeles as a result of the Southern California wildfires, the Writers Guild of America has now released its nominations for the 2025 WGA Awards.

The Writers Guild of America West (Wgaw) and Writers Guild of America East (Wgae) have revealed nominations for outstanding achievement in screenwriting, television, new media, news, radio/audio, and promotional writing for work released in 2024.

Screenplays for “A Real Pain,” “Anora,” “Challengers,” “A Complete Unknown,” “Wicked,” and “Nickel Boys” were all featured among the nominees. Surprise nods include Glen Powell and Richard Linklater’s “Hit Man,” Alex Garland’s “Civil War,” and Megan Park’s “My Old Ass,” boosting their chances as Oscar voting wraps up.

For those confused as to why some films aren’t represented amongst the nominations, “All We Imagine As Light,” “The Brutalist,” “A Different Man,” “Dídi,” “Hard Truths,...

The Writers Guild of America (WGA) has unveiled its nominees for the 2025 WGA Awards, highlighting a mix of familiar Oscar frontrunners, unexpected entries, and the creative reshuffling prompted by ineligible contenders.

Sean Baker’s critically acclaimed “Anora” is leading the original screenplay list, which many consider the Oscar frontrunner in this category. Another strong contender is Jesse Eisenberg’s “A Real Pain,” a personal, semi-autobiographical drama that has been a critical favorite this season.

The inclusion of Justin Kuritzkes’ “Challengers” — a romantic sports drama starring Zendaya — is significant. After its high-profile shutout at the BAFTA Awards, this nomination could rejuvenate its awards season momentum. Adding variety to the category is Alex Garland’s bold post-apocalyptic thriller, “Civil War,” and Megan Park’s sweet yet irreverent comedy, “My Old Ass.” Park, who won praise for her directorial debut “The Fallout,” is also a DGA nominee for first-time director.

The adapted screenplay...

“Anora,” “A Real Pain,” “A Complete Unknown,” “Wicked” and “Nickel Boys” are among the films that have been nominated by the Writers Guild of America in the feature film category, the WGA West and WGA East announced on Wednesday.

In the Original Screenplay category, “Anora” and “A Real Pain” were nominated alongside “Challengers,” “Civil War” and “My Old Ass.” In Adapted Screenplay, “A Complete Unknown,” “Nickel Boys” and “Wicked” will be up against “Dune: Part Two” and “Hit Man.”

Eligibility for the Writers Guild Awards is restricted to screenplays that were written under the guild’s Minimum Basic Agreement or under related agreements from affiliated international guilds. That rule made many of the year’s likeliest Oscar nominees ineligible for Writers Guild nominations, including the original scripts “The Brutalist,” “The Substance,” “Hard Truths,” “September 5” and “All We Imagine as Light,” as well as the adaptations “Conclave,” “Sing Sing,”“Emilia Pérez” and “I’m Still Here.

The 2025 Writers Guild Awards nominations have finally been revealed.

The original screenplay nominees are A Real Pain, Anora, Challengers, Civil War and My Old Ass. The adapted screenplay nominees are A Complete Unknown, Dune: Part Two, Hit Man, Nickel Boys and Wicked.

Top awards contenders The Brutalist, Conclave, Emilia Pérez, Sing Sing and The Substance were not eligible for the WGA Awards’ adapted or original screenplay nominations.

On the TV side, Fallout, Mr. and Mrs. Smith, Shogun and The Simpsons all lead with three nominations each, followed by two nominations apiece for The Bear, Bob’s Burgers, English Teacher and Hacks.

The guild was originally set to announce this year’s nominees on Thursday, Jan. 9, but the announcement was delayed twice amid the wildfires that have burned large areas of Los Angeles. The WGA originally set Monday as its new announcement date before again delaying the news “until further notice.” The...

2024 has been a great year for romantic movies, as many of the movies that came out this year included some great love stories. The fans of the romantic genre have been patiently waiting for the genre to make a return, and their time is finally here. 2024 saw the release of many romantic movies, including mix-genre movies like The Fall Guy and Fly Me to the Moon. So, let’s check out which of the movies that came out last year are the best romantic movies you should not miss.

Is Steven Soderbergh preparing to join the “Star Wars” universe? Or is he just a huge fan of George Lucas and Tony Gilroy?

The filmmaker behind classics like “Ocean’s 11” and “Traffic,” as well as the upcoming supernatural horror “Presence,” released his 2024 watch list last week, as he has done for many years now, sharing it via his “Soderblog” under “Seen, Read 2024.” Included on the list are a range of films, television shows, and shorts, as well as novels, short stories, and plays, but of particular note are his multiple viewings of “Star Wars” films across the year, seemingly sparked by his watching the Disney+ “Rogue One” spin-off series “Andor” from Tony Gilroy. Soderbergh and Gilroy are longtime friends and collaborators, the former having helped finance the latter’s “Michael Clayton.” They also did a commentary track together for Carol Reed’s “The Third Man” that’s really worth a listen.

Even though we may have moved on from 2024, it's still worthwhile to look back at the many excellent films from last year. Yet another new video countdown has debuted - this one is created by a young film critic named Will Bjarnar. This video featuring his 25 Best Films of 2024 is inspired by David Ehrlich's usual Top 25 Countdown (which will be out next week) and follows the same kind of editing. Bjarnar counts down his favorites from 2024, featuring tons of our own favorites as well. I'm so glad to see Furiosa, Hit Man, Bird, The Room Next Door, Close Your Eyes, and Challengers showing up on best of the year lists. These are some of the best of last year along with all the usual: Nickel Boys, Anora, The Brutalist, No Other Land, and Dune: Part Two. We've also featured a few other great 2024 video countdowns: Clementine's 2024 in Film,...

Sean “Diddy” Combs’ mother, Janice, would often throw wild parties at the future music mogul’s childhood home, where it wasn’t uncommon to walk into a room where adults were having sex, one of Combs’ longtime childhood friends claims in a new documentary.

“That’s what we were privy to; this is what we were fed,” hip-hop producer Tim “Dawg” Patterson says in Diddy: The Making of a Bad Boy, which will premiere on Peacock on Tuesday. “Was it desensitizing us? I’m sure it was. Were we aware of it?...

Glen Powell is progressing in Hollywood thanks to a new first-look film deal from Universal Pictures. This deal comes after Powell’s big year, which was topped off by the success of Universal’s “Twisters.” Along with this deal, Dan Cohen, a seasoned professional in the field, has become a partner in Powell’s production company, Barnstorm.

Cohen has worked for Shawn Levy’s 21 Laps Entertainment for almost 15 years. He has been an executive producer on several popular projects, including Netflix’s Stranger Things, the Oscar-winning movie Arrival, and many more. People in the business see his hiring at Barnstorm as a big chance.

“Barnstorm has been a dream of mine since I was a kid,” he said. He said he wanted the company to become a center for great theater fun. He said good things about Universal’s management of “Twisters,” which made $267.7 million in the U.S.

Glen Powell, the actor who had a breakout Hollywood year in 2024, is continuing his hot streak into the new year.

The actor and his production banner Barnstorm have signed a first-look film deal with Universal Pictures, for whom the actor starred in last year’s surprise hit Twisters.

The deal comes on the heels of Powell finding the executive tasked with running his banner. Dan Cohen, who was a principal at Shawn Levy’s prolific production company 21 Laps, will help run Barnstorm as Powell’s partner. The new position, one of the most-coveted jobs in town, was filled over the holiday break.

“Barnstorm has been a dream of mine since I was a kid,” said Powell in a statement announcing the first-look deal. “I want our company to be a destination for world class theatrical entertainment. Throughout the process of making Twisters, I was so impressed with the leadership of...

Universal Pictures is entering a first-look film production pact with its Twisters star Glen Powell and his Barnstorm production company. At the same time, 21 Laps veteran Dan Cohen is set to join Barnstorm as the label’s partner.

The news comes in the wake of Powell being nominated for his first Golden Globe, for Best Actor in a Comedy and Musical for Netflix’s Hit Man, which he produced and co-wrote.

Twisters overperformed against industry expectations, becoming the biggest opening for a natural disaster film ever at the domestic box office with an $81.2 million domestic start, a $267.7M stateside final and near a $371M global take. The sequel debuted on Peacock in November, becoming the service’s biggest Pay 1 film ever in its first 14 days on the platform.

“Barnstorm has been a dream of mine since I was a kid. I want our company to be a destination for world-class theatrical entertainment,...

Nikki Glaser absolutely killed it with her brilliant jokes while hosting the Golden Globes awards this year. Glaser made sure that none of the major stars present at the Beverly Hilton Hotel for the event were safe from her roast. During her roast, she took a funny jab at Glen Powell, who ascended to the status of a Hollywood heartthrob over the past couple of years.

Glaser came ready for the event with a slightly controversial Diddy joke. However, it wasn’t the only dark current events joke she had prepared. She shared that during her Glen Powell bit, she came up with another joke involving Luigi Mangione, the suspect in the killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson.

Nikki Glaser has been widely praised for her turn as host of the 2025 Golden Globes on Sunday night, during which she roasted the celebrities in attendance without crossing the line. During a morning-after appearance on The Howard Stern Show, our 2024 Comedian of the Year revealed some of the jokes that were left on the cutting room floor.

Ranging from a second Diddy joke to a Hitler mention to a dig at Alec Baldwin, Glaser shared the pitches for jokes that she knew she couldn’t say on CBS and so they were earmarked for the “Stern file.”

One of the jokes, “This is the last time all of you will be in the same room together until the Diddy trial,” was cut in favor of another Diddy mention because they decided there could only be one.

Hideo Kojima reveals his favorite movies and shows of 2024. The legendary Japanese video game designer, inspired by both film and literature, is regarded as one of the first video game auteurs. He joined Konami in 1986, creating Metal Gear (1987), which established the stealth genre. Kojima also produced Zone of the Enders and designed cinematic adventure games like Snatcher (1988) and Policenauts (1994). After founding Kojima Productions in 2005 and leaving Konami in 2015, he independently released Death Stranding in 2019.

Now, a day after the Golden Globes honored the best in film and television from 2024, Hideo Kojima has revealed his favorite films and shows of the past year. For the best movies of 2024, Kojima selected Past Lives, The Teachers' Lounge, Dune: Part Two, All of Us Strangers, Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, La Chimera, Hit Man, Gondola, The Seed of the Sacred Fig, The Substance, The Holdovers, and Juror #2. For the best Japanese movies of the year,...

The reviews are in: Nikki Glaser crushed it last night as host of the Golden Globes. She did so well in fact that producers are already trying to sign her up for next year. “We absolutely had a great experience with her, and think that she would be great at this in the long term,” executive producer Glenn Weiss told Variety.

Glaser’s monologue struck a perfect balance between edgy and not-too-mean — but she did have some harsher burns up her sleeve. On Howard Stern’s SiriusXM radio show this morning, per Variety, Glaser told Stern that she had some meaner punchlines prepared that she ultimately deemed too prickly for a primetime audience on CBS.

Here are some of the edgier jokes that didn’t make the cut…

The Burn: “This is the last time all of you will be in the same room together until the Diddy trial.”

Why...

Turns out some roasts are even too mean for roast-sensation Nikki Glaser. In a recent interview, Glaser revealed that there was one joke in particular that was too mean to perform during this year’s Golden Globes monologue in Beverly Hills, Calif. The joke Glasser decided not to tell was an Alex Baldwin Rust joke referencing the death of cinematographer Harlan Hutchins, reported by Variety: “Michael Keaton was so great in Beetlejuice Beetlejuice. And Alec Baldwin sadly did not come back to play a ghost because he was too busy making them.” Glaser acknowledged that while the joke itself is good, it was “just too mean.” “Please know that I know that was not nice,” she said. Among other jokes that were cut from the evening’s programming involved Nicole Kidman and Luigi Mangione, the suspect charged with the shooting murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson: “Glen Powell is nominated tonight for Hit Man.

Nikki Glaser earned widespread acclaim for her hosting duties at the 2025 Golden Globes, where her monologue poked fun at Diddy, Ben Affleck and Timothée Chalamet’s mustache. But what about the jokes that didn’t make it to air? Glaser appeared on Howard Stern’s SiriusXM radio the morning after the awards ceremony (via US Weekly) to share some of the harsher punchlines she decided not to say on live television.

When it came to Diddy, the disgraced music mogul accused of rape and sex trafficking, Glaser had this joke cut from the monologue: “This is the last time all of you will be the same room together until the Diddy trial.” Why? “We had another Diddy mention that worked better… and you only get one Diddy mention. You’re also accusing the people in the room of being involved in that, and they might turn on you.”

Sebastian Stan is stepping out to celebrate his big win!

The 42-year-old actor and his girlfriend Annabelle Wallis made a quick dash out of Golden Globes After-Party held at the Chateau Marmont on Sunday night (January 5) in Los Angeles.

Sebastian and the 40-year-old Peaky Blinders actress were seen wearing the same outfits they wore to the awards show earlier in the evening.

During the ceremony, Sebastian won the award for Best Actor in a Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy for his role in A Different Man.

In his acceptance speech, Sebastian gave a sweet shout-out to Annabelle.

Sebastian was nominated alongside Jesse Eisenberg for A Real Pain, Hugh Grant for Heretic, Gabriel Labelle for Saturday Night, Jesse Plemons for Kinds of Kindness and Glen Powell for Hit Man.

Hosting an awards show can be a thankless gig. Yet critics agree Nikki Glaser crushed her first time hosting the 2025 Golden Globes on Sunday night.

The comedian deftly walked the line between mocking and celebrating the entertainment industry and overall seemed genuinely happy to be on the Beverly Hilton stage. Yet Glaser, who’s rather perfectionistic about her craft, has some next-day gripes about her own performance and is now revealing some of the harsh jokes she cut from her monologue — which range from quips about Alec Baldwin to Nicole Kidman to a Hitler reference.

Talking to Howard Stern for his SiriusXM show on Monday morning, Glaser performed several jokes that would have almost certainly gone over well with most audiences, if not some of the people in the room.

“This is the last time all of you will be the same room together until the Diddy trial,” was one of the jokes.

Hollywood’s most glamorous night is back, and oh, it did not dismay! The 82nd Golden Globes united the biggest stars in film and TV to honor top-tier performances. But the real show took place before the awards were even announced. The red carpet at the iconic Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles turned into an absolute masterpiece of high fashion and pure star power.

Each year, the Golden Globes sets the tone for fashion, and this year was no exception.

From gowns that glittered in the spotlight to sharp, sleek suits that oozed coolness, the red carpet was a feast for the fashion-forward. What makes this event so special is how it snatches the spirit of Hollywood itself—glamorous, daring, and endlessly creative.

So, who stood out in this sea of beaming elegance? We’ve narrowed it down to five indelible...

Nikki Glaser hosted the 2025 Golden Globes and has been praised for her opening monologue that took a soft approach to her often savage roast jokes.

Glaser seemingly restrained herself from going too hard on the Hollywood celebrities in the ballroom on Sunday night and left some jokes on the cutting room floor.

The standup comedian went on SiriusXM’s The Howard Stern Show on Monday, January 6, and read jokes from the “Stern file,” or jokes that she cut from the main broadcast.

“The Golden Globes is the only show where you can see the biggest stars and movies and television joined together with the same goal — getting out of here tonight before Dax Shepard asked them to do his podcast,” Glaser read. “This is the last time all of you will be in the same room together until the Diddy trial.”

Glaser explained that this Diddy joke didn’t make...

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences announced on Monday the 207 feature films eligible for Best Picture consideration, two days before voting for the 2025 Oscar nominations begins.

There are 323 feature films eligible for the Academy Awards, but just 207 met the Best Picture competition eligibility requirements.

As stated by the Academy in a press release, “To be eligible for consideration in the general entry categories, under rules implemented for the 97th Academy Awards year, feature films must open in a commercial motion picture theater in at least one of six U.S. metropolitan areas: Los Angeles County; the City of New York; the Bay Area; Chicago, Illinois; Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas; and Atlanta, Georgia, between Jan. 1, 2024, and Dec. 31, 2024, and complete a minimum qualifying run of seven consecutive days in the same venue. Feature films must have a running time of more than 40 minutes.”

But Best Picture eligibility is different. Films under consideration...

The 82nd Golden Globe Awards have wrapped and the complete 2025 Golden Globes winners list has been revealed. We now know just how much momentum the leading films have going into the rest of Oscar season, what to keep an eye on over the summer in the lead-up to the Emmys, and that host Nikki Glaser may well become one of Hollywood’s go-to emcees.

“Emilia Pérez,” Jacques Audiard’s Mexico-set Netflix musical, won the most prizes of any film with four: Best Motion Picture — Musical or Comedy, Best Non-English Language Film, Best Supporting Actress for Zoe Saldaña, and Best Original Song “El Mal.” There’s still a full two months of awards season left, but the stage sure seems set for “Emilia Pérez” to be going head to head with “The Brutalist” for Best Picture at the Oscars. Brady Corbet’s multi-hour immigrant drama won the Golden Globe for Best Motion Picture — Drama,...

Sebastian Stan is a winner!

The 42-year-old actor won the award for Best Actor in a Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy for his role in A Different Man at the 2025 Golden Globe Awards on Sunday (January 5) at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills, Calif.

In his acceptance speech, Sebastian admitted that the movie was “not an easy” to make.

One way we can do that is by continuing to champion stories that are inclusive.”

Sebastian also gave girlfriend Annabelle Wallis a sweet shout-out, saying, “Annabelle, I love you.”

He concluded his speech by saying, “This is for my mom, who left Romania in search of a better life, gave me everything, and for my stepfather,...

Sebastian Stan has won his first Golden Globe, taking home the trophy for best actor in a musical or comedy for “A Different Man.”

In his speech, Stan implored viewers to account for social prejudices toward individuals with disabilities. In director Aaron Schimberg’s “A Different Man,” Stan plays Edward, an aspiring actor with neurofibromatosis, a genetic condition that causes tumors to grow on the skin and bone. He stars in the film alongside a standout Adam Pearson, who has neurofibromatosis in real life.

“Aaron Schimberg and Adam Pearson at home, I wish you were here. I share this with you. Thank you for your trust,” Stan began in his acceptance speech. “Our ignorance and discomfort around disability and disfigurement has to end now. We have to normalize it and continue to expose ourselves [and our children] to it. Encourage acceptance. One way we can do that is by continuing to champion stories that are inclusive.

Nikki Glaser has been warning us that she wouldn’t go full-on roast mode as host of the Golden Globes, but don’t worry, her knives were plenty sharp as she carved up the entertainment industry Sunday night. Unlike last year’s show, when Jo Koy drowned in his own flop sweat, Glaser found her confidence early on, buoyed by an audience of stars eager to laugh at themselves (within reason).

Here are 10 of Glaser's smartest punchlines from her opening monologue…

1 Casting Call

“I’ve gotta say this feels like I finally made it. I’m in a room full of producers at the Beverly Hilton Hotel, and this time, all of my clothes are on. So that was worth it.”

2 Affleck-tions

“Wicked. Queer. Nightbitch. These are not just words Ben Affleck yells after he orgasms. These are some of the incredible movies nominated tonight. The Bear. The Penguin. Baby Reindeer.

Nikki Glaser came out swinging at the 2025 Golden Globes, opening her hosting debut with a monologue that poked fun at Diddy, “Dune: Part Two” and Timothée Chalamet in front of Hollywood’s A-list stars.

She began her monologue by calling the awards ceremony “Ozempic’s biggest night,” and told viewers on Paramount+, “You have six days left to cancel your free trial.”

“I’ve got to say, this feels like I finally made it. You know, I’m in a room full of producers at the Beverly Hilton hotel, and this time all of my clothes are on,” Glaser said to big laughs. “It was worth it.”

Running through some of the top nominees, Glaser said, “Tonight, we celebrate the best of film and hold space for television,” nodding to the viral “Wicked” press tour meme. “‘Wicked,’ ‘Queer,’ ‘Nightbitch’… these are not just words Ben Affleck yells after he orgasms,...

The 2025 Golden Globe Awards had an unexpected twist on the red carpet as two celebrity doppelgängers stole the spotlight. Miles Mitchell, who bears a striking resemblance to A Complete Unknown star Timothée Chalamet, and Maxwell Braunstein, the spitting image of Hit Man actor Glen Powell, both made waves by attending the prestigious ceremony — and they had quite the story to tell.

2024 may not have been a banner year for the box office like last year’s was thanks to Greta Gerwig’s “Barbie” and Christopher Nolan’s “Oppenheimer,” but it still had its standouts like Jon M. Chu’s film adaptation of the hit Broadway musical “Wicked.” And though the Golden Globe Awards weren’t quite ready to turn their red carpet green, the Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo-starring hit will be well-represented at this year’s ceremony, having earned four nominations, including in the category of Best Motion Picture — Musical or Comedy.

Held at the Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles on Sunday, January 5, the 82nd Golden Globe Awards kicked off outside the venue with the stars of this year’s most highly regarded films and television shows greeting fans and photographers alike. “Wicked” isn’t the only musical vying for awards glory tonight, as Jacques Audiard’s Spanish-language song-and-dance...

Awards season is officially ready to launch. On Sunday night, the Golden Globes will kick off the race to the 2025 Oscars with the 82nd annual Golden Globe Awards ceremony. The star-studded event will air live on CBS linear television and stream live on Paramount+ for Paramount+ with Showtime subscribers.

The Golden Globe Awards also kick off the televised portion of awards season, getting out in front of other ceremonies like the Critics Choice Awards, Screen Actors Guild Awards, and the Oscars.

Here’s everything about the 2025 Golden Globes, from this year’s nominations to the show date and time.
