Golden Globes 2020 Preview
The 77th annual Golden Globes is a three-hour event, airing live from The Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, California. Global comedy superstar Ricky Gervais will host the awards ceremony for the fifth time. The Golden Globes is presented by NBC.
“Global comedy superstar Ricky Gervais, in his unique and legendary fashion, will resume hosting duties for a record fifth time at the 77th Annual Golden Globe Awards. The three-hour telecast will air live on NBC coast to coast Sunday, January 5, 2020 at 8:00 p.m. ET/5:00 p.m. PT from The Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, Calif.,” an NBC press release said. “The Golden Globes serve as the official kickoff to the 2020 awards season. 25 categories — 14 in film and 11 in television — are voted on by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA).”
Gervais is hosting the Golden Globes for a record-breaking fifth time. But, he said, it is also his last. He also hosted the Golden Globes in 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2014, according to NBC.
“Once again, they’ve made me an offer I can’t refuse. But this is the very last time I’m doing this, which could make for a fun evening,” Gervais told NBC.
“There is always a palpable electricity in the room when Ricky takes the Globes stage. His return as master of ceremonies at the Golden Globes is much anticipated,” said Paul Telegdy, Chairman, NBC Entertainment, according to the press release. “It is sure to make for an unexpected evening. We can’t wait to see what he has up his sleeve.”
“When Ricky Gervais is at the helm of the Golden Globes Awards, we can always expect the unexpected,” said President of the HFPA Lorenzo Soria, the press release reported. “We’re excited to see it all unfold on Jan. 5!”
“In a world where many award shows are opting to go the no host route, the Golden Globes are going all in! It’s going to be a great night,” added Mike Mahan, CEO, Dick Clark Productions, according to the press release.
Some of the top nominees this year come from streaming services. Netflix had the highest total number of nominations, which includes the films “Marriage Story” and “The Irishman,” both dramas. “Marriage Story” was nominated for six awards and “The Irishman” was nominated for five. Netflix also had nominations in the TV categories with “The Crown” and “Unbelievable.” They each got four nominations, as did HBO’s “Chernobyl.”
Tom Hanks, who played Mister Rogers in “A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood,” will receive the Cecil B. DeMille Award. Ellen DeGeneres will receive the Carol Burnett Award.
Hanks is also up for best supporting actor in “A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood.”
The Golden Globes will be a star-studded night, with presenters including Tim Allen, Jennifer Aniston, Jason Bateman, Cate Blanchett, Leonardo DiCaprio, Tiffany Haddish, Scarlett Johansson, Margot Robbie, Zoe Kravitz, Jason Momoa, Elton John and former host Amy Poehler.
