The 81st annual Golden Globe Awards 2024 nominations are in – and feature a number of West End stars.

Andrew Scott, who recently wowed the West End in Vanya – a critically acclaimed adaptation of Uncle Vanya, scored a “Best Performance by an Actor in a Motion Picture, Drama” nod for All of Us Strangers. Sadly his co-star Paul Mescal, who also took the West End by storm this year in A Streetcar Named Desire, didn’t get a nomination.

HBO’s hit drama Succession picked up “Best Television Series, Drama” and 9 nods overall, including Brian Cox for “Best Performance by an Actor in a Television Series, Drama”. Cox is taking to the West End stage in Spring 2024, playing the patriarch in Long Day’s Journey Into Night at the Wyndham’s alongside Patricia Clarkson, Daryl McCormack, Anthony Boyle and Louisa Harland (until 8 June 2024).

Cox’s fellow Succession co-star Sarah Snook is also heading to the West End next year, starring in one-person show The Picture of Dorian Gray at the Theatre Royal Haymarket (from 6 February 2024). Snook has been nominated for a “Best Performance by an Actress in a Television Series, Drama” award.

Currently on stage in London is Harriet Walter, who plays Cox’s ex-wife in Succession. She is starring in The House of Bernarda Alba at the National Theatre, until 6 January 2024.

Also in the “Best Performance by an Actress in a Television Series, Drama” category is BAFTA and Olivier-winning stage and screen star Imelda Staunton, for her performance as The Queen in Netflix’s The Crown. Staunton is set to star in a massive new West End production of Hello Dolly! this summer 2024 at the London Palladium (6 July to 14 September 2024) – book Hello, Dolly! tickets here.

No stranger to the London stage, Helen Mirren is also nomainted in that category, for 1923.

Needles-to-say that West End darling, and now considerable TV talent, Hannah Waddingham has also picked up another nomination for Ted Lasso, this time a Golden Globe “Best Supporting Actress, Television” nod. Hannah recently starred in the Royal Variety Performance at the Royal Albert Hall, which will be broadcast on ITV this Sunday, 17 December. She has also recorded a Christmas Special for Apple TV+ at the London Coliseum, Hannah Waddingham: Home for Christmas which is now available.

In the “Best Performance by an Actor, Limited Series, Anthology Series or Motion Picture Made for Television” category, Woody Harrelson has been nominated for HBO’s White House Plumbers. Harrelson is currently starring in a revival of Ulster American at Riverside Studios in London alongside Andy Serkis and Louisa Harland (until 27 January 2024).

Also in that category is David Oyelowo for Lawmen: Bass Reeves, who started his career on the UK stage, winning an Ian Charleson Award.

Musical omissions this year include The Color Purple, which failed to get a Best Musical or Comedy nomination, although Fantasia Barrino picked up a Best Performance by an Actress in a Motion Picture, Musical or Comedy nod.

In terms of movies, Greta Gerwig’s blockbuster comedy Barbie got the most nominations with nine, followed by Christopher Nolan’s biopic Oppenheimer with eight, plus Poor Things starring Emma Stone and Martin Scorsese’s Killers of the Flower Moon both take seven nods.

The nominations were announced on Monday 11 December 2023 by Cedric the Entertainer and Wilmer Valderrama, and ceremony revealing the winners of the Golden Globe Awards 2024 will take place on 7 January 2024.

The ceremony will be broadcast on CBS, and is the first Golden Globes since the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, who used to vote on and organise the awards, was disbanded.

Dick Clark Productions bought the Golden Globe assets and has installed a new leadership team to ensure greater accountability than in previous years. The voting body still remains very small, with just 300 foreign press members from 75 countries.
