The Golden Globe 2026 was the beginning of the awards season with a night full of surprises, emotional victories, and the best performances in film and television. The second time hosted by Nikki Glaser, the show started with a confident monologue, and within no time, it moved into the major categories, setting the tone of the evening. From great movies to mass-appealing comedies, the Golden Globe again demonstrated why it continues to be a major predictor of Oscar and Emmy success. One Battle After Another, Hamnet, and The Secret Agent swept the headlines, TV favorites The Pitt and Adolescence were cleaning up categories, and the Golden Globe Awards 2026 were satisfyingly unpredictable and unshocking in certain aspects and earth-shattering in others.
