The Substance got a bit more love than expected, but the same can't be said for Wicked.

Emilia Pérez, Conclave, and The Bear lead list of 2025 Golden Globes nominess

Awards season is moving right along. Mindy Kaling and Morris Chestnut took the stage from The Beverly Hilton to announce the nominees of the 82nd new-and-potentially-improved Golden Globes—the first since the dissolution of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association last July. For some reason, Dick Clark Productions decided to announce the nominees for awards honoring the best in Hollywood at 5:30 am Hollywood time on a Monday morning. This isn’t the first time something like this has happened, but yeesh.

If this season has a frontrunner so far, it’s Emilia Pérez. The film managed to snag ten nominations, with Karla Sofía Gascón, Selena Gomez, Zoe Saldaña, director and screenwriter Jacques Audiard, and songs “El Mal” and “Mi Camino” all getting individual nods. Conclave also earned six nods, for Motion Picture (Drama), Peter Straughan’s screenplay, Volker Bertelmann’s score, Edward Berger’s direction, and Ralph Fiennes’ and Isabella Rossinili’s performances. There were quite a few surprises this morning, too. The Substance managed to rack up five nominations, and Sebastian Stan earned nominations in both drama and comedy categories for his performances in The Apprentice and A Different Man, respectively.

Elsewhere, the surprises didn’t end on the TV side. Peacock’s Day Of The Jackal nabbed a couple of noms for Eddie Redmayne’s performance and for Best Drama Series, for example. But overall, The Bear expectedly came out on top, with shows like Only Murders In The Building and Baby Reindeer performing well. You can check out the full list of nominees below.
