After a scandal-plagued year, the Golden Globes forged ahead with film and television nominees for its 2022 show, which is set to take place Jan. 9, but will not be televised.
In the film world, Kenneth Branagh’s Belfast and Jane Campion’s The Power of the Dog led all nominees with seven each, including Best Motion Picture – Drama. In that category, they’ll compete against Coda, Dune. and King Richard.
Belfast stars Caitriona Balfe, Jamie Dornan. and Ciarán Hinds were all nominated for acting awards as well, while Branagh picked up Best Director and Screenplay nods. Campion also earned directing and screenwriting nominations for Power of the Dog, while stars Benedict Cumberbatch, Kirsten Dunst, and Kodi Smit-McPhee earned acting looks (Radiohead’s Jonny Greenwood also notched a Best Original Score nomination for his work on the film).
Other big film nominees included Adam McKay’s new satire Don’t Look Up, Paul Thomas Anderson’s latest Licorice Pizza, and Steven Spielberg’s new adaptation of West Side Story. Those three will vie for Best Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy against Tick, Tick… Boom! and Cyrano.
Over in television, Succession led all nominees with five, including Best Television Series — Drama, where it’s up against The Morning Show, Pose, Squid Game, and Lupin. Succession stars Brian Cox and Jeremy Strong will both compete in the Best Performance by an Actor in a TV Series – Drama, while Sarah Snook landed a Best Performance by an Actor in a TV Series – Drama nod, and Kieran Culkin a Best Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role on Television nomination.
Both The Morning Show and Ted Lasso picked up four nominations each. Morning Show stars Jennifer Aniston, Billy Crudup, and Mark Duplass all received acting nods, as did Ted Lasso’s Jason Sudeikis, Hannah Waddingham, and Brett Goldstein. Ted Lasso is also up for Best Television Series – Musical or Comedy where it’ll compete against The Great, Hacks, Only Murders in the Building, and Reservation Dogs.
The nominees for the 79th Annual Golden Globes were announced three days after the Hollywood Foreign Press Association tried to ensure the film and television industries that it was working to rectify various issues that were exposed over the past year. In particular, the HFPA came under fire for its lack of diversity, and for its voting members engaging in unethical behavior, like accepting gifts to sway votes. As part of the backlash, NBC — the network that had long aired the Globes — announced that it would not broadcast the show in 2022.
In its open letter, the HFPA touted its efforts to improve the diversity of its ranks, saying it welcomed “our largest and most diverse group of journalists to date, all of whom are excited to be first-time voters this year.” The HFPA also noted its new five-year partnership with the NAACP that will “address diversity issues within our organization and Hollywood overall.”
“The last eight months have been difficult,” the HFPA said, “but we are proud of the changes we have achieved so far. We’ve taken time to reflect on past missteps and reform our organization for the better. We have worked tirelessly to not only adopt changes addressing policies and conduct, diversity and equity, and voting but to implement these changes thoroughly and meaningfully.”
