    Chloé Zhao, Emerald Fennell and Regina King made history in the Best Director category during the Golden Globe nominations Wednesday morning — their nods are the first time three women have ever been nominated for directing in the same year. In fact, there have never been even two female directors nominated in the same year. Also, it’s the 8th, 9th time and 10th women have been nominated in the category (Barbra Streisand and Kathryn Bigelow were nominated twice, each, plus Jane Campion, Sofia Coppola and Ava DuVernay also received nominations.) Wednesday’s announcement also marks the 6th time the category has a Black nominee (Spike Lee was nominated twice, while Steve McQueen, Ava DuVernay and Barry Jenkins also previously received nominations.) It’s also the 7th time the category has had an Asian nominee (previous nominees include Bong Joon Ho, Shekhar Kapur and Ang Lee, four times).
