The Globes are among the first of the 2026 Hollywood accolades to be handed out before the film industry's top honors, the Academy Awards, in March. Globes voters do not have a say in the Oscars, but a win at the Globes can help bring attention to potential Academy Awards contenders.

Recipients of the Globes are chosen by more than 300 entertainment journalists, compared with roughly 9,000 voters who select the Oscars. The Globes voting body was expanded in recent years and organisers instituted reforms after criticisms for ethical lapses and a lack of diversity.

Globes voters highlighted several international films in this year's nominations. They include Norwegian family drama'"Sentimental Value,' 'It Was Just an Accident' from Iranian director Jafar Panahi, and Brazilian drama 'The Secret Agent.'
