The wait for this annual award function is finally over, as it is all set to air on television on February 28 at 8 p.m. EST.

They include Michael Douglas, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Kevin Bacon, Kyra Sedgwick, Sterling K. Brown, Susan Kelechi Watson, Awkwafina, Cynthia Erivo, Joaquin Phoenix, Kristen Wiig, Renee Zellweger, Annie Mumolo, Kenan Thompson, Tiffany Haddish, Anthony Anderson, Kate Hudson and Margot Robbie. With restrictions being imposed on the ceremony, the hosts and the presenters of the awards will be present in person, while the winner will be receiving their awards virtually.
Actor Chadwick Boseman, who had passed away last year due to cancer, is among the few actors who have been nominated for the Golden Globes this year, and is expected to win the award. Meanwhile, the number of people in the audience will be limited, given restrictions imposed on social gatherings. The event will be bicoastal, hosted from New York by Fey and from Los Angeles Poehler.
