2025 Golden Globes: The Full List of Nominees

The 2025 Golden Globes nominations have been announced, dominated by Paul Thomas Anderson’s One Battle After Another.

The film, starring Leonardo DiCaprio as a former revolutionary struggling to protect his daughter from a vengeful military officer, landed nine nominations, including Best Screenplay, Best Director, and Best Picture.

The top TV show of the year in terms of nominations was HBO’s The White Lotus, which earned six nominations.

As always, the Golden Globe nominations are a mixture of worthy films and very strange choices. The Globes added a “Cinematic And Box Office Achievement” category recently, and this year they nominated Avatar: Fire and Ash — before it’s opened in a single theater and earned a single dollar toward any potential “box office achievement.” I mean, I’m sure Avatar will do well, but what if it performs below expectations? Isn’t it a weird to give it a box office award before it makes any money?

The Globes also introduces a Best Podcast category this year, I guess in a bid to get more celebrities to show up to the awards and to talk about the Globes. It feels like it has nothing to do with anything else on the show, but hey, this is the Golden Globes we’re talking about. If they seemed classy and on the level, they’d be the Oscars.

Here are the full list of Golden Globes nominations for 2025.
