Moderators BuBu Posted December 8, 2025 Moderators Posted December 8, 2025 Reading Time: 5 minutes The Golden Globe nominations were announced Monday morning, and some of Hollywood’s biggest names and most powerful players are celebrating. But there can be no thrill of victory without the agony of the snub, and several major stars are tending to bruised egos this morning after their names were not read during today’s announcements. One of the day’s most surprising twists was the fact that Sydney Sweeney wasn’t nominated for her work in Christy.

FALLON/AFP via Getty Images) Sydney underwent a physical transformation for the role, and the method approach is usually catnip for the journalists who vote on the Globes. There’s also the fact that Sydney is one of the biggest stars on the planet, and the board tends to lean toward A-listers. But at the end of the day, Christy tanked at the box office and received lukewarm reviews. That’s not a combination that tends to lead to massive success come award season. Speaking of an inauspicious start to Hollywood’s self-congratulatory months, Wicked: For Good did not receive a nomination for best picture, which means it’s now a long shot for the top categories at the Oscars. The same goes for Jay Kelly, a sentimental crowd-pleaser starring George Clooney as an aging movie star reflecting on his life and career.

Mockford/Getty Images) Like Wicked, the film checks a lot of boxes, but was shut out of the best picture race. Also to the surprise of many industry insiders, Superman was left out of the cinematic and box office achievement category despite solid reviews and grossing over $600 million at the box office. Is This Thing On? — a new comedy directed by Bradley Cooper — didn’t receive a single nomination. Although you might be hearing that title for the first time, and that might be a clue as to why more voters weren’t drawn to that particular project. Fortunately, Sydney’s Euphoria co-star Jacob Elordi fared much better, scoring nominations in two separate categories! Here’s a list of the major nominees so you can check out as many as possible ahead of the Golden Globes broadcast on January 11. Happy viewing!
