Actors Marlon Wayans and Skye P. Marshall are announcing the nominees in the running for the 2026 Golden Globe Awards in a ceremony on Monday that is currently underway.
The first category announced is for best performance by a male actor in a television series drama, and the nominees in the running are Sterling K. Brown (Paradise), Diego Luna (Andor), Gary Oldman (Slow Horses), Mark Ruffalo (Task), Adam Scott (Severance) and Noah Wyle (The Pitt).
Among the 28 categories announced today will be a brand new award for best podcast. The addition of the new category will honour “diverse talents in the medium,” according to the Golden Globes, as part of their commitment to honour the full spectrum of entertainment.
The Golden Globes have come under scrutiny in recent years for a lack of diversity and ethical lapses by the The Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA), the voting group previously behind the awards. The HFPA was shuttered in 2022 when the award show was sold to a new owner, and the award show has been trying to rebuild its reputation since then.
The upcoming award show on Jan. 11 will be the 83rd iteration of the Golden Globes, and will be hosted by comedian Nikki Glaser. Glaser hosted the awards for the first time in 2025.
“Hosting the Golden Globes this year was without a doubt the most fun I have ever had in my career,” Glaser said in a statement from March. “I can’t wait to do it again, and this time in front of the team from The White Lotus, who will finally recognize my talent and cast me in Season 4 as a Scandinavian Pilates instructor with a shadowy past.”
