Golden Globes 2026 Winners: ‘One Battle After Another’ Earns 4 Awards, ‘Adolescence’ Leads TV

12 hours ago 1

“One Battle After Another,” a blistering satire about radical politics, and “Hamnet,” a look at William Shakespeare’s complicated domestic life, took top prizes at the 83rd Golden Globe Awards. “The Studio,” a send-up of Hollywood, was named best TV series (musical or comedy) and “The Pitt,” which takes place in an over-stretched hospital, won best TV series (drama). Best limited or anthology series went to “Adolescence,” the story of a murder investigation that unfolds in one shot.

The Globes, unlike the Oscars, delineates films by genre. That meant “One Battle After Another” won best picture (musical or comedy), while “Hamnet” was crowned best picture (drama). It was a big night for Warner Bros. Discovery, which produced “One Battle After Another,” as well as “The Pitt.” “One Battle After Another” scored a leading four prizes, with writer and director Paul Thomas Anderson nabbing trophies for the film’s screenplay and his direction. “Hamnet” won two statues, including best actress for Jessie Buckley’s portrayal of a grieving mother. Focus Features produced the movie.

“Adolescence,” which was backed by Netflix, won four prizes in total, the most of any TV show. Its creator Stephen Graham won best actor in a limited series, while Erin Doherty was named best supporting actress in a TV drama for the show. Owen Cooper, their 16-year-old co-star, won best supporting actor in a TV drama, becoming the youngest ever winner in the category.

Nikki Glaser returned as emcee for the second year in a row. In her opening monologue, she poked fun at everything from Bari Weiss (“CBS news: America’s newest place to ‘See B.S. News.'”) to the Epstein files (“The Golden Globe for best editing goes to… the Justice Department!”) to Warner Bros.’s pending sale to Netflix. She also lampooned Hollywood’s self-obsession, calling the Globes, “without a doubt the most important thing that’s happening in the world right now.”

There were more somber reminders of politics on display. Celebrities such as Mark Ruffalo and Wanda Sykes wore pins to the ceremony with the messages “Ice Out” and “Be Good” to honor the memory of Renée Macklin Good, who was killed by an ICE agent in Minneapolis this week. Several winners also used their time on stage to urge viewers to exhibit compassion and understanding, an apparent nod to the country’s polarization.

Top acting honors went to Rose Byrne, named best actress in a musical or comedy for her work as the mother of a child with a pediatric feeding disorder in “If I Had Legs I’d Kick You,” and Timothée Chalamet, who picked up best actor in a musical or comedy prize for playing a ping-pong player in “Marty Supreme.” Chalamet had previously been nominated four times without ever winning.

“My dad instilled in me a spirit of gratitude growing up,” Chalamet said. “Always be grateful for what you have. It’s allowed me to leave the ceremony in the past empty-handed with my head held high. I’d be lying if I said those moments didn’t make this moment that much sweeter.”

Wagner Moura won best actor in a drama for playing a political refugee in “The Secret Agent.” “If trauma can be passed along through generations, values can too,” Moura said.

Noah Wyle earned best actor in a TV drama for playing a hard-charging doctor in “The Pitt,” while Rhea Seehorn won best actress in a TV drama for her performance as a novelist confronting an alien virus in “Pluribus.” “I meant to get a prescription for beta blockers but I did not,” Seehorn said. “Sorry!”

“The Studio’s” Seth Rogen was named best actor in a TV comedy for his performance as a blundering movie executive in the Apple TV series. Jean Smart won best actress in a TV comedy for her work as a stand-up comic in “Hacks,” marking her third Golden Globe victory. “What can I say, I’m a greedy bitch,” Smart joked.

Michelle Williams won her third Golden Globe, this one in the best actress in a limited series category, for her performance as a terminally ill woman in “Dying for Sex.”

Teyana Taylor was named best supporting actress for playing a revolutionary in “One Battle After Another,” and Stellan Skarsgård won best supporting actor for his turn as an emotionally remote filmmaker in “Sentimental Value.” Taylor gave one of the night’s most emotional speeches. “To my Brown sisters and little brown girls watching tonight, our softness is not a liability,” Taylor said. “Our depth is not too much. Our light does not need permission to shine. We belong in every room we walk into. Our voices matter and our dreams deserve space.”

In addition to honoring film and television, the Globes recognized podcasts for the first time, handing out the top prize to “Good Hang With Amy Poehler.” “I don’t know about awards shows, but when they get it right, it makes sense,” Poehler joked.

Streaming sensation “KPop Demon Hunters” won two honors, including best animated feature and best original song for its anthem, “Golden.” And Brazil’s “The Secret Agent” was named best international feature.

Sykes, presenting the award for best standup special, trolled Ricky Gervais for his past anti-trans jokes and atheism. The comic wasn’t in the ballroom when he won the Globe for his latest show, “Mortality,” so Sykes accepted his statue while “thanking God and the trans community.” It was Gervais’ second consecutive win in the category.

“Sinners,” a vampire film set in the segregated South, won the prize for best cinematic and box office achievement.
