Critics Choice Awards 2026: Chelsea Handler moves Hollywood audience to tears with emotional Rob Reiner tribute three weeks after his murder

1 week ago 19

Chelsea Handler moved Hollywood to tears as she addressed the tragic death of legendary filmmaker Rob Reiner during her opening monologue at the 31st annual Critics Choice Awards on Sunday night.

It marks the first awards show since Reiner and his longtime wife Michele Reiner were murdered inside their $13.5 million Brentwood mansion on December 14, 2025.

The couple's son, Nick Reiner, 32, has since been charged with two counts of first-degree murder in connection with the killings.

Handler, 50, appeared visibly emotional as she referred to Reiner as the 'nicest guy in Hollywood,' which earned a roaring applause from the event's star-studded audience.

'Everyone in this room knows that the nicest guy in Hollywood was Rob Reiner. Anyone who ever spent time with Rob Reiner knows that the minute that you met him he felt like an old friend,' she began.

'When you were in conversation with him he was present, he was focused and he was funny and he would ask you tons of questions. Whether you were discussing politics or film or the latest beauty trends, he was all in.'

Handler humorously recalled one of her final text exchanges with the Princess Bride director that took place just months before his life was taken at age 78.

'After I sent him a text thanking him for dinner a few months ago, he texted me back and said, 'We had so much fun with you last night. Thanks for explaining so much about plastic surgery. It was very edifying.'' 

Handler then spoke of the 'tireless efforts' Reiner and his wife gave 'to so many causes - all stemming from one basic idea: decency.'

She continued: 'That we should all look out for each other. And I think we all can agree that we definitely need more of that.

'So, lets use tonight as a reminder of that decency and as a reminder of everything Rob and Michele represented and fought so hard for.

'And on that note, lets get this show started,' Handler concluded. 

Before her tribute to the Reiners, Handler had the room in stitches as she mercilessly roasted some of Hollywood's biggest names, including Leonardo DiCaprio and Gwyneth Paltrow.

Handler, who wowed on the red carpet, returned as host for the 31st annual ceremony for the fourth consecutive year inside Santa Monica's iconic Barker Hangar.

To kick off the night, Handler joked that Sunday night's ceremony was 'brought to you by Saudi Arabia' - a nod to the recent Riyadh Comedy Festival 2025 controversy as it brought up criticisms about free speech in the Middle Eastern country.

As praised the 'training and dedication' that went into many of the TV and film performances in 2025, Chandler made a joke accusing Sean Penn of using a well-known erectile dysfunction drug for an X-rated scene in One Battle After Another.

'From Marty Supreme, Timothee Chalamet trained with a table tennis instructor for years. For Sinners, Miles Caton practiced six hours a day and learned to play guitar,' she said.

Handler than brutally added, 'For One Battle After Another, Sean Penn took a Cialis.'

She took aim at bonafide climate activist DiCaprio's close ties to Amazon billionaire Jeff Bezos while addressing the cast of his acclaimed 2025 film One Battle After Another. 

'Leo's here! Thank God! Leo almost didn't make it tonight because he was trapped on a boat in St. Barth's,' said Handler, in reference to travel restrictions that affected the Caribbean after Trump's airstrikes on Venezuela.

DiCaprio, 51, and his girlfriend Vittoria Ceretti, 27, rang in the new year of Bezos' luxury $500 million superyacht Koru with several big name stars just days before the awards ceremony. 

'It was just like the Titanic, but worse, because Jeff Bezos was there,' Handler quipped.

DiCaprio has seemingly been friends with Bezos for years - even attending the Amazon founder's $50 million wedding to Lauren Sanchez in June of last year - despite critics slamming Amazon's carbon footprint around the globe.

Just before her jab at DiCaprio, Handler jokingly tried to shoot her shot with his One Battle After Another co-star Benicio del Toro.

'I love Leo and Benicio together getting sh** faced to get sh** done,' she said of the onscreen duo. 'I respect that.'

She continued, 'Benicio, you've had a phenomenal year this year, and we need to see more of you, okay?

'Stop being so selective about what you do,' Handler said of del Toro's infrequent film roles and red carpet appearances. 

'I need you in more movies, many more TV shows in room 708 at the hotel tonight.'

Despite not even being in the room, Gwyneth Paltrow was not safe from Handler's wrath as she spoke about Marty Supreme, in which Paltrow stars with Timothee Chalamet.

'In Marty Supreme, we were also given the gift of Gwyneth Paltrow's return to the screen,' Handler began.

After acknowledging that Paltrow 'couldn't be here tonight,' Handler decided to poke fun at the Oscar-winner's infamous 2023 ski crash trial.

'She's skiing, so look out,' Handler teased.

Paltrow was sued in civil court after a man accused her of injuring him in an alleged 2016 ski collision.

The trial was highly-publicized and a jury ended up determining that Paltrow was not at fault. The actress was a symbolic $1 in damages. 

Handler hit a number of recent pop culture points, including rapper Nicki Minaj's apparent turn to the right-wing and Quentin Tarantino's brutal rants about actors in Hollywood he doesn't like.

Handler told Sunday night's nominees: 'You guys are all going to be spending the next three months together so whoever wins tonight get used to seeing them win. 

Just before her jab at DiCaprio, Handler jokingly tried to shoot her shot with his One Battle After Another co-star Benicio del Toro

'I need you in more movies, many more TV shows in room 708 at the hotel tonight,' Handler quipped

'And whoever doesn't win, Quentin Tarantino will come up here and tell you what you did wrong!'

Minaj's name randomly came up as she spoke about Ryan Coogler's action-packed vampire epic Sinners, which leads the night with the most nominations. 

'Sinners was a massive blockbuster! Although I haven't been invited into a black person's house since, except Nicki Minaj, but who wants to go over there?'

In the same Sinner segment, Handler remarked on the 'staggering $368 million' that the film made at the box office in 2025. The film was notably helmed by a Black director and featured a predominantly Black cast, including Michael B. Jordan, Miles Caton and Jayme Lawson. 

'White Hollywood was so shook after seeing the box office numbers, Variety ran the headline "Do box office numbers really matter"?' Handler joked.

Kevin Costner received a brutal jab from Handler as she applauded Yellowstone creator Taylor Sheridan's latest series Landman starring Billy Bob Thornton.

'Spoiler alert, in a recent episode Billy Bob Thornton went full frontal. Taylor Sheridan said it was nice to have a d**k onset that wasn't Kevin Costner,' she joked.

Sheridan and Costner allegedly feuded on set of CBS' Yellowstone, leading to Costner's abrupt exit from the TV show in the midst of its final season. 

While discussing Guillermo del Toro's acclaimed retelling of Frankenstein for Netflix, Handler took the opportunity to throw shade at Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and his controversial decisions as the United States' Secretary of Health and Human Services.

Despite not even being in the room, Gwyneth Paltrow was not safe from Handler's wrath as she poked fun at the star's 2023 ski crash trial; Paltrow seen in court in 2023 

'Gwyneth Paltrow couldn't be here tonight. She's skiing, so look out,' Handler teased

'Frankenstein is up for best picture. It is the story of a surgeon obsessed with curing death through science, unlike our current administration, which is obsessed with curing science through death,' she said.

Handler also made rare reference to her ex-boyfriend 50 Cent while making a joke about the rapper's multi-part Netflix documentary on his disgraced ravel Diddy.

'The power of music was on display this year,' Handler began. 'We saw blues music used to fight vampires. K-pop music being used to fight demons. And in Wicked: For good show tunes being used to fight, I don't know, straight people? 

'The cast of K-Pop Demon Hunters is here somewhere. Not to be confused with Netflix's other music movie, 50 Cent: Diddy Hunter.'

Handler famously dated 50 Cent back for almost a year back in 2011. She's previously referred to the 50-year-old mogul as her 'favorite ex.'

Handler also had some hilarious quips prepared for her longtime friend and fellow comedian Adam Sandler as she spotlighted his acclaimed film Jay Kelly, in which he co-stars with George Clooney.

'George Clooney and Adam Sandler, another dynamic duo that we did not know we needed,' she exclaimed, before calling out Sandler's recent style glow-up.

'And the question of the night is who put a neckerchief on Adam Sandler? That person deserves a Critics' Choice award of their own,' she said of the actor's recent style glow-up

'And the question of the night is who put a neckerchief on Adam Sandler? That person deserves a Critics' Choice award of their own.

'We found your look and it's adorable. You look like you went to the groomers, Adam!' 

She congratulated the SNL icon on his acting nomination as she complimented him for being 'so funny in everything that you do.

'You also keep showing us what a great and serious actor you are in more serious roles. Everyone knows you've always been the nicest guy in Hollywood.'

Long considered one of the most accurate crystal balls in Hollywood, the Critics Choice Awards have a strong track record of forecasting Oscar glory.

That predictive power was on full display last season, when Anora used its Critics Choice Best Picture win to reassert itself after being shut out at the Golden Globe and SAG Awards, momentum it ultimately carried all the way to the Academy Awards.

Three acting winners, Adrien Brody, Kieran Culkin and Zoe Saldaña, also repeated their Critics Choice victories at the Oscars.

With the Golden Globe Awards not airing until January 11 this year, the Critics Choice Awards step into the spotlight as the first major televised ceremony of 2026, giving studios and contenders a crucial early boost.

Critics Choice Association CEO Joey Berlin called the awards 'a celebration of the very best in film and television,' adding that the group's voters help guide audiences toward standout storytelling each year.

Leading the pack this year is Ryan Coogler's Sinners, which scored a jaw-dropping 17 nominations across film and television categories - just one shy of Barbie's record-breaking 18 nods in 2024.

Close behind are One Battle After Another with 14 nominations, and Hamnet and Frankenstein, which each earned 11.

Other major contenders include Marty Supreme, Wicked: For Good, Sentimental Value, Train Dreams, Jay Kelly and Bugonia.

The Best Actor race in film is stacked, with Timothée Chalamet (Marty Supreme), Leonardo DiCaprio (One Battle After Another), Joel Edgerton (Train Dreams), Ethan Hawke (Blue Moon), Michael B. Jordan (Sinners) and Wagner Moura (The Secret Agent) battling it out.

Best Actress nominees include Jessie Buckley (Hamnet), Rose Byrne (If I Had Legs I'd Kick You), Chase Infiniti (One Battle After Another), Renate Reinsve (Sentimental Value), Amanda Seyfried (The Testament of Ann Lee) and Emma Stone (Bugonia).

In the supporting categories, Best Supporting Actor contenders feature Benicio Del Toro (One Battle After Another), Jacob Elordi (Frankenstein), Paul Mescal (Hamnet), Sean Penn (One Battle After Another), Adam Sandler (Jay Kelly) and Stellan Skarsgård (Sentimental Value).

Best Supporting Actress nominees include Elle Fanning (Sentimental Value), Ariana Grande (Wicked: For Good), Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas (Sentimental Value), Amy Madigan (Weapons), Wunmi Mosaku (Sinners) and Teyana Taylor (One Battle After Another).

On the television side, the acting races are just as competitive.

Drama Series contenders include Sterling K. Brown (Paradise), Adam Scott (Severance), Diego Luna (Andor), Billy Bob Thornton (Landman) and Keri Russell (The Diplomat), alongside performances from Bella Ramsey (The Last of Us) and Carrie Coon (The Gilded Age).

Comedy categories bring familiar favorites and breakout turns, with nominees such as Adam Brody and Kristen Bell (Nobody Wants This), Ted Danson (A Man on the Inside), Jean Smart (Hacks), Danny McBride (The Righteous Gemstones) and Seth Rogen (The Studio).

Limited series and TV movie races are led by Stephen Graham (Adolescence), Brian Tyree Henry (Dope Thief), Charlie Hunnam (Monster: The Ed Gein Story), Sarah Snook (All Her Fault), Michelle Williams (Dying for Sex) and Renée Zellweger (Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy).

Timothee Chalamet was nominated for his role in Marty Supreme

Cynthia Erivo was snubbed for her role as Elphaba, while Ariana Grande scored a Supporting Actress nod as Glinda 

Supporting categories feature standout work from Tramell Tillman (Severance), Billy Crudup (The Morning Show), Allison Janney (The Diplomat), Hannah Einbinder (Hacks), Janelle James (Abbott Elementary), Julianne Moore (Sirens) and Nick Offerman (Death by Lightning).

Also on the TV side, Adolescence leads with six nominations, followed closely by Nobody Wants This with five.

Heavy hitters like The Diplomat, Hacks, The Pitt, All Her Fault and Ghosts also made strong showings.

Studio powerhouses are equally competitive, with Warner Bros. leading film nominations and Netflix dominating the television field.

This year's ceremony also introduces four new categories - including best variety series, casting, stunt design and sound.
