Golden Globes 2024 Nominations Announced: ‘Barbie’ & ‘Oppenheimer’ Lead With Most Nods – Full Nominees’ List

Given the widespread reaction to Greta Gerwig‘s feminist phenomenon film Barbie, it’s no surprise that the movie had a dominant presence in the nominations for the 2024 Golden Globe Awards. 

The film has received an impressive ten nods, which officially makes it the second most-nominated film in the history of the awards, on par with the acclaimed Cabaret.

A close second with eight nominations is Christopher Nolan‘s Oppenheimer, which delves into the story of J. Robert Oppenheimer and the development of the atomic bomb.

Unlike the Oscars, the Golden Globe Awards honor achievements in both film and television and distinguish between different genres. The awards recognize the best comedies and musicals separately from the best dramas. 

In the best drama category, Oppenheimer competes against Killers of the Flower Moon, Maestro, Anatomy of a Fall, The Zone of Interest and Past Lives. Barbie, on the other hand, is up for the best comedy or musical award alongside Air, American Fiction, Poor Things, May December and The Holdovers. 

In its final season, HBO’s Succession leads the television section with nine nominations. FX’s The Bear and Hulu’s Only Murders in the Building follow with five nominations each. The best TV drama race includes shows like 1923, The Crown, The Diplomat, The Last of Us and The Morning Show.

The Bear and Only Murders in the Building compete against Abbott Elementary, Barry, Jury Duty and Ted Lasso for Best Comedy.

Netflix has emerged as the top-nominated media company with 28 nominations, thanks to its productions like Maestro, The Crown and The Diplomat. Warner Bros. Discovery secured the second-highest number of nominations with 27, which included recognition for Barbie, Succession and Barry.

However, not all highly acclaimed works received nominations. Ava DuVernay‘s Origin and Michael Mann‘s Ferrari were overlooked, despite the rave reviews both received. Additionally, The Color Purple failed to secure a nomination in the Best Musical or Comedy category and the reboot of Frasier went unnoticed. 

This year’s show introduces some notable changes, with each category to include six nominees instead of five. The Globes also introduced two new awards to celebrate box office achievements and stand-up comedy performances, with nods to films like Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour, John Wick: Chapter 4 and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 as well as comedians Trevor Noah, Amy Schumer and Ricky Gervais.

The Golden Globe Awards, voted on by approximately 300 journalists, do not always align with the picks of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences, which consists of 10,500 industry professionals. 

The awards ceremony is scheduled to take place on January 7 and will be broadcast live on CBS, the new network home for the Golden Globe Awards. The ceremony will also be available to stream on Paramount+ and the CBS app.

Previously, the Golden Globe Awards had aired on NBC for many years. However, controversies centered around the lack of diversity and ethical practices of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA), the organization behind the awards, led to boycotts and a break in the partnership with NBC.

The show has yet to announce a host for this year’s broadcast as it seeks to reinvent itself and restore its reputation as a fun and prestigious awards ceremony.
