'One Battle After Another’ and ‘Adolescence’ swept this year’s Golden Globe Awards, which was held at the Beverly Hills in California, USA, on Monday morning. Paul Thomas Anderson’s ‘One Battle...’, which had the most nominations this year with nine nods, took home four awards, including Best Film- Musical or Comedy, Best Director, Best Screenplay, and Best Supporting Actress. The Netflix series 'Adolescence' won four awards at this year's prestigious event. Stephen Graham won Best actor- Limited Series, while Owen Cooper who played Jamie Miller in the series took home award for Best Supporting Actor. Erin Doherty received the Best Supporting Actress for her work in the series. It also emerged winner in the Best Limited Series, Anthology Series or Television Motion Picture category.
Timothee Chalamet won the award for Best Actor- Musical or Comedy in a Motion Picture for his performance in 'Marty Supreme', echoing his win at the Critics Choice. Chalamet defeated Leonardo DiCaprio, George Clooney and other big names at the red-carpet ceremony in Beverly Hills, California. "This category is stacked. I look up to all of you," Chalamet said to his fellow nominees.
The actor noted that he had left the Globes in previous years without a win. "I’d be lying if I didn’t say those moments made this moment that much sweeter," he said.
Rose Byrne was honoured with the Best Actress award - Musical or Comedy for her performance in 'If I Had Legs, I'd Kick You', a film made in just 25 days.
Comedian Nikki Glaser has returned for a second stint as host of the awards show. Nikki joked that the Globes were 'without a doubt the most important thing that's happening in the world right now.'
She took light-hearted jabs at the stars seated inside a Beverly Hills ballroom. Glaser joked about DiCaprio's reputation for dating young women before apologizing for the 'cheap' remark. "We don’t know anything else about you, man," she said.
Teyana Taylor took home the first award as Best Supporting Actress for her performance in 'One Battle After Another'. Stellan Skarsgard was honoured as Best Supporting Actor for his performance in the Norwegian film 'Sentimental Value'. Indian-Hollywood actor Priyanka Chopra presented the award for Best Actor in a TV series wearing a stunning navy blue dress at the event.
DiCaprio's film, 'One Battle After Another, tells the story of a washed-up revolutionary who springs into action when his daughter's life is in danger. Co-stars Benicio del Toro, Sean Penn, Chase Infiniti and Teyana Taylor were nominated alongside DiCaprio. The war epic has earned nine nods, making it one of only six films in Golden Globes history to secure at least one acting nomination in every category.
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.'
