See the complete list of Golden Globe nominations for 2023

The Golden Globes, once a fixture on the awards season calendar – the raucous party known for boosting the campaigns of Oscar hopefuls – has become embroiled in controversy and will not be broadcast by NBC in 2022. From the criticism levelled at the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (the small group of international journalists who vote on the awards) to the announcement that it will return to screens in 2023 – and the full list of nominees – here’s what you need to know. 

In 2021, why was the Hollywood Foreign Press Association chastised?

A Los Angeles Times investigation accused the HFPA of “self dealing” and highlighted potential conflicts of interest on February 21, 2021. Among them was the fact that 30 HFPA members had been flown to France in 2019 to visit the Emily set in Paris. Two years later, the show was nominated for two Golden Globes, while other critically acclaimed shows, such as I May Destroy You, were passed over. It was also revealed that there were no Black members in the organisation. Former president Meher Tatna later told Variety that there had been no Black members for at least two decades. The backlash was swift, with several former Golden Globe nominees, including Ava DuVernay, taking to social media to demand change.

The HFPA responded with a statement just days before the 2021 Golden Globes ceremony on February 28th, saying: “We are fully committed to ensuring our membership is reflective of the communities around the world who love film, TV and the artists inspiring and educating them. We understand that we need to bring in Black members, as well as members from other underrepresented backgrounds, and we will immediately work to implement an action plan to achieve these goals as soon as possible.”

What happened after that? 

Things quickly spiralled out of control. The HFPA hired a new strategic diversity advisor in March 2021 and promised that at least 13% of its membership would be Black. However, Deadline reported in April that HFPA member and former eight-term president Philip Berk had shared an article that called Black Lives Matter a “racist hate movement” in an email. Berk was fired, but the incident precipitated the departure of the HFPA’s crisis communications firm and diversity consultant.

In May, the organisation unveiled new reform plans, promising to diversify and proposing restrictions on the types of gifts its voters can accept, but Netflix, Amazon Studios, and WarnerMedia all announced boycotts of the HFPA until there was more meaningful change. On May 10, NBC announced that the 2022 Golden Globes would not be broadcast. “We continue to believe that the HFPA is committed to meaningful reform,” it read. “However, change of this magnitude takes time and work, and we feel strongly that the HFPA needs time to do it right. Assuming the organisation executes on its plan, we are hopeful we will be in a position to air the show in January 2023.”

Did the Golden Globes 2022 take place? 

Yes, but not in the way we’ve grown accustomed to. Variety reported on January 4, 2022, that the HFPA had failed to secure any celebrity presenters for the upcoming ceremony. The following day, the outlet revealed that the 2022 Golden Globes would be held at: “very stripped down [and] will centre on announcing this year’s winners while also focusing on the HFPA’s philanthropy work. There will not be an audience, only select HFPA members and philanthropy grantees will be in the room. There will be no red carpet and media credential requests for the event will not be accepted.” On 6 January, a HFPA rep added: “This year’s event is going to be a private event and will not be live-streamed. We will be providing real-time updates on winners on the Golden Globes website and our social media.” 

So, will the Golden Globes air in 2023? 

That is undoubtedly what the HFPA has been striving for. In October 2021, it will admit 21 new voters, six of whom will be Black. Eligibility has also been expanded to include all qualified journalists working for a foreign publication in the United States (rather than just those based in Southern California), there is a prohibition on accepting gifts, and existing members must apply for reaccreditation. Of course, there is still a lot of work to be done.

Despite this, The Hollywood Reporter reported on 9 August 2022 that the Golden Globes ceremony would indeed return to NBC for its 80th edition, with a proposed airdate of 10 January 2023. 

Where will the Golden Globes be held in 2023? 

The Golden Globes ceremony in 2023 will be held at the Beverly Hilton hotel, with comedian Jerrod Carmichael serving as host. However, it is unknown how many nominees and industry insiders will attend. One nominee who most emphatically will not be? Brendan Fraser of The Whale accused former HFPA president Philip Berk of groping him at a luncheon in 2003 in 2018. Berk refuted this charge.
