In a year in which most Americans were homebound due to the coronavirus pandemic, the streamers dominated the 78th annual Golden Globe Awards nominations with an overwhelming 68 mentions spanning film and TV. Still, when it came to the top film category, best motion picture drama, the traditional theatrical distributors held their ground, accounting for three of the five nominations.

Golden Globes 2021 nominations are in, and there’s some good news. This year, three women received nominations in the prestigious Best Director category, breaking a five-year streak of male-dominated nods: Regina King for One Night in Miami, Emerald Fennell for Promising Young Woman and Chloé Zhao for Nomadland.

For the first time in the history of the Golden Globe awards, more than one woman has been nominated in the best director category in any one year. Chloe Zhao (Nomadland), Emerald Fennell (Promising Young Woman) and Regina King (One Night in Miami) were all nominated in the category.

This year’s Golden Globes took a leap forward in representation terms with women landing three of the five nods in its Best Director Motion Picture field.

Mank, leads with six nominations, while Aaron Sorkin's The Trial of the Chicago 7 follows with five nods. Florian Zeller's The Father, Chloé Zhao's Nomadland, and Emerald Fennell's Promising Young Woman follow with four nominations each.
