The nominations for the 2025 awards were announced on Wednesday, January 7, by Abbott Elementary star Janelle James and Heated Rivalry actor Connor Storrie. This year’s list features a strong lineup of nominees, highlighting some of the most acclaimed performances across both big and small screens.
In the film categories, major contenders include Timothée Chalamet, Leonardo DiCaprio, Michael B. Jordan, Emma Stone, and Jessie Buckley. Films such as Hamnet, Frankenstein, Marty Supreme, and One Battle After Another dominate the top categories, including Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture. Supporting acting nominations also feature high-profile names like Sean Penn, Jacob Elordi, and Ariana Grande.
Television categories are equally competitive this year, with series such as The White Lotus, Severance, The Diplomat, Abbott Elementary, and The Bear leading the nominations. Actors including Gary Oldman, Keri Russell, Jean Smart, and Jenna Ortega are among those recognized for standout performances in drama and comedy series.
One of the evening’s most anticipated moments will be the presentation of the Lifetime Achievement Award, which this year goes to Hollywood icon Harrison Ford. According to the official website, the decision to rename the awards reflects a desire to clearly represent the show’s mission—celebrating actors and their work in film and television—as it begins a new chapter with a global audience on Netflix.
