Golden Globes rookies: 42 first-timers include Lily Gladstone, Charles Melton, Da’Vine Joy Randolph, …

The Golden Globes have continued their annual tradition of surprising us awards pundits. A whopping 42 individuals reaped their first nominations this year. After a string of wins at recent critics prizes, Lily Gladstone (“Killers of the Flower Moon”), Charles Melton (“May December”) and Da’Vine Joy Randolph (“The Holdovers”) have also scored their first-ever Globes noms. Although “The Color Purple” was snubbed in Best Comedy/Musical, it did earn bids for Fantasia Barrino and Danielle Brooks, both first-time nominees this year. See the complete list of first-time nominees at the 2024 Golden Globes below.

Visionary director Yorgos Lanthimos has surprisingly never been nominated for a Globe before, but earns his first bid this year for “Poor Things.” First-time filmmaker Celine Song earned not one, but two Globes nominations for “Past Lives” for both directing and for her screenplay. The Original Song category boasts two major stars amongst its roster of first-timers, including Dua Lipa for her contribution to the “Barbie” soundtrack and Lenny Kravitz for his song from “Rustin.”

In the TV categories, the Globes’ record-breaking love of the final season of “Succession” led to three first-time nominees, including Emmy winner Matthew Macfadyen and Emmy nominees J. Smith-Cameron and Alan Ruck. HBO also netted nominations for its two “The Last of Us” leads Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey, who were both nominated for their performances at the upcoming Emmys. After winning a Globe last year for Jeremy Allen White, “The Bear” expanded its nominations tally for its second season with nominations this year for first-timers Ayo Edebiri, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, and surprise nominee Abby Elliott. With the addition of the stand-up special category at this year’s ceremony, three marquee names landed their first-ever Globes bids as well: Sarah Silverman, Trevor Noah, and Wanda Sykes.
