Nominations for the 80th annual Golden Globe Awards were announced on 12 December 2022. Everything Everywhere All at Once, The Banshees of Inisherin and The White Lotus were among the major nominees at the Golden Globes 2023.

Golden Globes marks the first major awards of the 2023 season. After missing out on a television slot for the 2022 ceremony, the awards will return to NBC on 10 January 2023.

The Golden Globe Awards are produced by Dick Clark Productions and Jesse Collins Entertainment in association with the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA).

Who will be the host of Golden Globes 2023?

Emmy Award-winner Jerrod Carmichael will be the host of the main ceremony to be held at The Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, California, the US.

“We’re so excited to have Jerrod Carmichael host the historic 80th Golden Globe Awards. His comedic talents have entertained and thrilled audiences while providing thought-provoking moments that are so important in the times we live,” Helen Hoehne, president of the HFPA, said on 8 December.

Who announced the nominations and where?

The nominations were announced by Mayan Lopez and Selenis Leyva, stars of the NBC sitcom Lopez vs. Lopez (2022– ). They presented the five nominees for most of the 27 award categories.

The announcement of the Golden Globe nominees was made live at 5:35 am PT (7:05 pm IST) on NBC’s Today show. The event was streamed on Peacock and was also available on NBC TV Channel and online with cable.

The Golden Globes recognise the best in cinema and television. Most of the top honours are given in two separate sections — drama and musical or comedy — for both films and TV shows.

Among the TV shows, The White Lotus season 2 won nominations in multiple categories. Jennifer Coolidge, Aubrey Plaza and F. Murray Abraham got acting nods while the show itself was nominated for Best Television Limited Series, Anthology Series or Motion Picture Made for Television.

Giving stiff competition to HBO’s The White Lotus is Netflix’s Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story. Besides a nod in Best Television Limited Series, Anthology Series or Motion Picture Made for Television category, the critically acclaimed serial-killer show also earned nominations for Richard Jenkins, Evan Peters, and Niecy Nash-Betts in acting categories.

HBO’s House of the Dragon received two nominations — Best Television Series – Drama, and Best Actress – TV Series Drama for Emma D’Arcy who portrays Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen. The hit high-fantasy prequel to Game of Thrones (2011–2019), was at the top of everyone’s predictions among the television honours for the Golden Globes 2023.

The show’s first season, which ended on 23 October, has been hailed by fans of George R.R. Martin’s books as well as critics.

Interestingly, Game of Thrones received eight Golden Globe nominations throughout its run, but it won only once when Peter Dinklage bagged the award for Best Supporting Actor – Series, Miniseries or Television Film in 2012.

Among the films, Everything Everywhere All at Once grabbed a nod in almost every category and so did The Banshees of Inisherin. While the former got a total of six nominations, the latter received eight nominations, including Best Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy, and a nod each for Brendan Gleeson and Barry Keoghan in supporting roles in any motion picture.

One of the most significant nominations for Everything Everywhere All at Once came for Michelle Yeoh in the Best Actress in a Motion Picture — Comedy or Musical category. Earlier in December 2022, Yeoh was named by TIME magazine as the Icon of the Year 2022. The recognition came for the outstanding reception of her film, which underlines her incredible star power as one of the biggest Asian actors in the world.

Among the films nominated in the Best Motion Picture — Drama are Elvis, Top Gun: Maverick, Tár and Avatar: The Way of Water.  Alongside heavy favourite The Banshees of Inisherin, those in the Best Motion Picture — Comedy or Musical include Margot Robbie-starrer Babylon, Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery and the animation film Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio.
