NBCUniversal(LOS ANGELES) — Will your favorite stars be appearing via Zoom? Will they be dressed in their best PJs? Tune in to find out when the 78th annual Golden Globe Awards air live on NBC this Sunday at 8 p.m. ET.
Tina Fey and Amy Poehler are returning as hosts this year, but they’ll be doing it from opposite coasts due to the pandemic. Tina will host from the Rainbow Room in New York City, and Poehler from the Globes’ home, The Beverly Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles
Netflix’s The Crown and Mank, its black and white film about the making of Citizen Kane, are this year’s top nominees with six nominations apiece.
This year’s presenters include Joaquin Phoenix, Renée Zellweger, Awkwafina, Cynthia Erivo, Kristen Wiig, Michael Douglas, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Sterling K. Brown, Kevin Bacon, Kyra Sedgwick, Susan Kelechi Watson and more.
While the show must go on, it’ll be quite a different experience for everyone involved. Some stars are bummed they won’t get to socialize in person this awards season. Better Call Saul’s Bob Odenkirk is one of them.
“One of my favorite things about show business is the degree of social fun we get to have and the people we get to see and oftentimes as you get older, you’re seeing old friends at these events and it’s a shame to not have that,” Odenkirk, who’s up for Best Actor in a TV Drama, tells ABC Audio. “So, yeah, it feels different, doesn’t it? I can’t wait for us to all get past the pandemic and get to see each other again.”
