Golden Globes Nominations 2026: 9 Biggest Snubs And Surprises
The nominees for next year's Golden Globes have been announced via Associated PressIf ever you need proof of just how quickly time is slipping by… awards season for 2026 is officially underway. AdvertisementUnsurprisingly, One Battle After Another is leading the way when it comes to the most-nominated films with nine nominations, ahead of Sentimental Value’s eight and Sinners’ seven. In the TV categories, meanwhile, The White Lotus is the most-recognised TV show, with six nominations to Adolescence’s five. Like co-star Wunmi, Delroy’s work in Sinners hasn’t been acknowledged by the Golden Globes, but we’re very, very early into awards season, and there’s still plenty of time for other ceremonies to show him some love. Film number three seems to have slipped through the cracks, though, with neither Josh O’Connor nor Glenn Close scooping any recognition from the Golden Globes for their supporting performances, despite their huge critical acclaim and the buzzy reception they’ve received.

Trump Gets 'Involved' In Netflix-WB Discovery Deal, Golden Globe Nominations Arrive: Live Updates
At least, that’s the crux of what Solicitor General John Sauer proposed Monday as he urged the Supreme Court to let President Donald Trump fire heads of independent agencies. Congress, historically, grants power to these agencies because there is an understanding that no single person controls them. “And if you take away half of this bargain, you end up with just massive, uncontrolled, unchecked power in the hands of the president. and it’s really hard to affect both sides of this bargain,” Kagan said.
