‘La La Land’ leads the Golden Globes nominations with seven nods.
The musical movie – which won eight prizes at the Critics’ Choice Awards last night (11.12.16) – will go up against ’20th Century Women’, ‘Deadpool’, ‘Florence Foster Jenkins’ and ‘Sing Street’ in the Best Musical or Comedy Motion Picture category.
Leading lady Emma Stone is up for Best Actress in the same category, but faces stiff competition from the likes of Annette Bening, Lily Collins, Hailee Steinfeld and Meryl Streep.
Emma’s ‘La La Land’ co-star Ryan Gosling will face off against Colin Farrell, Hugh Grant, Jonah Hill and Ryan Reynolds for the Best Actor in a Musical or Comedy gong.
Damien Chazelle has also received a nod for Best Director for the movie – which tells the story of a jazz pianist falling for an aspiring actress in LA – and the film’s ‘City Of Stars’ soundtrack tune is up for Best Original Song, while the musical movie is also fittingly up for Best Original Score.
‘Moonlight’ will do battle with ‘La La Land’ in the Score and Screenplay categories and is closely behind in the list of nominations with six nods.
The coming-of-age movie – which stars Naomie Harris and Mahershala Ali – is also up for the coveted Best Drama Motion Picture award alongside ‘Hacksaw Ridge’, ‘Hell Or High Water’, ‘Lion’ and ‘Manchester By The Sea’.
TV series ‘The Night Manager’ received nods for Best Limited Series, as well as Best Actor and Best Actress in a Limited Series for Tom Hiddleston and Olivia Colman respectively, while the show’s villain Hugh Laurie is up for Best Supporting Actor.
Hiddleston will go up against ‘The Night Of’ pair Riz Ahmed and John Turturro as well as Bryan Cranston (‘All The Way’), and Courtney B Vance (‘The People Vs OJ’).
Popular HBO drama ‘Game of Thrones’ is also up for two nods – Best Drama TV series, where it will face off against ‘The Crown’, ‘Stranger Things’, ‘This Is Us’ and ‘Westworld’, and Best Supporting Actress for Lena Heady, who plays Cersei Lannister.
‘Kubo and the Two Strings’, ‘Moana’, ‘My Life as a Zucchini’, ‘Sing’ and ‘Zootopia’ are on course for the Best Animated Motion Picture prize after receiving nods in the category.
‘Moana’ and ‘Sing’ will also do battle in the Best Original Song category for their respective songs ‘How Far I’ll Go’ and ‘Faith’.
