PREVIOUSLY (Jan. 3): Amanda Seyfried, Will Ferrell and George Lopez are among the first round of presenters on the 2024 Golden Globe Awards, which will air live on CBS and stream on Paramount+ on Sunday, Jan. 7, at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT.

Yeoh and Bassett both won Golden Globes last year. Yeoh won best performance in a motion picture – musical or comedy for Everything Everywhere All at Once. Bassett won best supporting performance in a motion picture for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.

Yeoh went on to make Oscar history, becoming the first Asian winner for best actress and the second woman of color, after Halle Berry, to win in that category. Bassett did not go on to win the Oscar for best supporting actress, but she is set to receive a Governors Award from the Motion Picture Academy on Jan. 9.

On the film side, Barbie is this year’s leading Golden Globes nominee with nine nods, followed by Oppenheimer (eight), Killers of the Flower Moon and Poor Things (seven each), Past Lives (five), and Anatomy of a Fall, Maestro and May December (four each).

On the TV side, Succession is the leading nominee with nine nods, followed by The Bear and Only Murders in the Building (five each) and The Crown (four).

The Golden Globes will unveil two new categories this year. Barbie, last year’s biggest box-office hit and one of its most widely admired, is expected to win the award for cinematic and box office achievement. The other nominees are Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, John Wick: Chapter 4, Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One, Oppenheimer, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, The Super Mario Bros. Movie and Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour.

The other new award is best performance in stand-up comedy. The nominees are Ricky Gervais for Ricky Gervais: Armageddon, Trevor Noah for Trevor Noah: Where Was I, Chris Rock for Chris Rock: Selective Outrage, Amy Schumer for Amy Schumer: Emergency Contact, Sarah Silverman for Sarah Silverman: Someone You Love and Wanda Sykes for Wanda Sykes: I’m an Entertainer. All but one of these specials streamed on Netflix; Silverman’s special streamed on HBO.

Emmy-winning producing duo Glenn Weiss and Ricky Kirshner of White Cherry Entertainment will serve as executive-producing showrunners of the 2024 Golden Globes, with Weiss also set to direct.
