As the awards season is around the corner, the nominations for Golden Globe Awards were announced on Wednesday. Sarah Jessica Parker and Taraji P. Henson hosted the 78th Golden Globe Awards Nominations on Wednesday. This year's Globes were postponed nearly two months because of the pandemic and to adjust to the delayed Oscars. Those are set for April 25.

The main ceremony will follow Sunday, February 28, and will be hosted by Tina Fey and Amy Poehler virtually. While Fey will host live from New York’s Rainbow Room, Poehler will host from the awards’ normal home, the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills, Calif. It's expected that nominees will appear from locations around the world. 

David Fincher’s vision of a bygone Hollywood Mank topped nominations to the 78th Golden Globe Awards on Wednesday with six nods, leading Netflix’s overall domination in a pandemic-marred movie year. Aaron Sorkin’s The Trial of the Chicago 7 — which, like Mank, is a Netflix release — came closest with five nominations, including nods for best film, drama; best director, and best screenplay for Sorkin; supporting actor for Sacha Baron Cohen; and best song.

Netflix, which topped all studios at the Globes last year, too, led with a commanding 42 nominations, with 22 coming in film categories and 20 in television. A year after fielding no female nominees for best director — or best feature film nomination for any movie directed by a woman — the Hollywood Foreign Press nominated more female filmmakers than it had before.
