At the 2026 Golden Globe Awards, dark comedy “One Battle After Another” and the Shakespeare-inspired drama “Hamnet” won the top film honors, taking best movie musical or comedy and best movie drama, respectively. Timothee Chalamet won best male actor in a movie musical or comedy for his role as a professional table tennis player in “Marty Supreme,” defeating major contenders such as Leonardo DiCaprio and George Clooney.
In new and notable categories, “Good Hang with Amy Poehler” earned the podcast award, while “Golden” from Netflix’s K-Pop Demon Hunters won best original song. Host Nikki Glaser kept the night light-hearted with playful jokes about Hollywood stars, including DiCaprio.
The Golden Globes are one of the first major events of Hollywood’s 2026 awards season, preceding the Academy Awards in March. While Globes voters (entertainment journalists) do not influence the Oscars, the wins often boost visibility for potential contenders.
