UPDATED with full winners list: The Hollywood Foreign Press Association is revealing winners of its 79th annual Golden Globe Awards on Sunday in a private ceremony at the Beverly Hilton. The pared-down event, which kicked off at 6 p.m. PT, will not be televised or even livestreamed this year as the HFPA continues to enact reforms stemming from revelations of longtime diversity and organizational shortfalls within the group made up of journalists covering Hollywood for outlets around the world.
In film, the group tonight named Netflix’s The Power of the Dog its Best Motion Picture – Drama and 20th Century Studios’ West Side Story its Best Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy. In TV, HBO’s Succession won best drama and HBO/HBO Max’s Hacks took best musical or comedy trophy. Aside from those four titles, no other won more than one award.
No celebrity presenters or nominees were involved in this year’s event, which had no red carpet and put the focus on the HFPA’s philanthropic efforts; individuals from organizations who have received donations from the group announced the nominees and winners. Otherwise, the only attendees were HFPA executives and members, the latter a growing group after HFPA’s ranks were expanded as part of reforms targeting ethics and code of conduct, diversity, equity and inclusion, governance and more.
Still, NBC said it would not televise this year’s awards show, studios and streamers have been reluctant to participate, and major PR firms remain mostly in boycott mode as the HFPA continues to course-correct.
As for winners tonight, on the film side, West Side Story and The Power of the Dog won three apiece, with West Side netting individual wins for Rachel Zegler (Lead Actress – Musical or Comedy) and Ariana DeBose (Supporting Actress), and Power of the Dog for Jane Campion’s directing and Kodi Smit-McPhee in Supporting Actor.
Will Smith and Nicole Kidman scored the Lead Actor – Drama and Lead Actress – Drama wins for King Richard and Being the Ricardos, respectively, while Andrew Garfield won the Lead Actor – Musical or Comedy category for Tick, Tick…Boom! Disney’s Encanto in Animated Film and Japan’s Drive My Car in Non-English Language were also winners.
In TV, Succession had three wins including the marquee one, with Jeremy Strong and Sarah Snook also scoring nods. HBO/HBO Max’s Hacks won two with Jean Smart as Best Actress; Jason Sudeikis took Best Actor for Apple TV+’s Ted Lasso. Prime Video’s The Underground Railroad was named Best Limited Series, while Mj Rodriguez won Best Actress for Pose and O Yeong-Su won Supporting Actor for Netflix’s Squid Game.
As for the actual nominations, the HFPA dropped all submission requirements for this year’s Globes, with a similarly flash-less noms reveal in December resulting in Belfast from Focus Features and The Power of the Dog leading nominations with seven apiece on the film side, where Netflix scored a leading 17 noms. West Side Story tonight won in three of its four categories, while Belfast won once for Kenneth Branagh’s screenplay.
HBO/HBO Max topped the TV side with 10 noms, including a leading five for Succession.
