It is unclear whether the Golden Globes will air on NBC in 2023, despite an initial report published by The Hollywood Reporter on Tuesday.

The Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA) is reportedly in talks with NBC to have its annual ceremony honoring film and television's best actors return to the network next year; however, it is "not a done deal," a source familiar with the matter told Deadline. An insider shared a similar sentiment with The Wrap.

A HFPA spokesperson and a spokesperson for NBC declined to comment.

The award show's possible television comeback comes after the HPFA — a small group of international journalists that determines the nominees and winners of the Golden Globe Awards each year — was widely criticized for its lack of representation among its members after the Los Angeles Times published an exposé in February 2021, in which it was revealed there were zero members of the organization that were Black.

In May last year, NBC announced that the Globes would not air for the first time in years because of the controversy, writing in a press release via The Hollywood Reporter at the time: "We continue to believe that the HFPA is committed to meaningful reform. However, change of this magnitude takes time and work, and we feel strongly that the HFPA needs time to do it right."
