Leo's "One Battle After Another" leads 2026 Golden Globes noms

9 Dec - It wasn't "Sinners" or "Wicked: For Good," but it was the Leonardo DiCaprio-starrer, "One Battle After Another" that is dominating the nomination list for the 2026 Golden Globes Awards.

The American black comedy action thriller, which follows an ex-revolutionary who is forced back into his former combative lifestyle when he and his daughter are pursued by a corrupt military officer, received nine nominations in the announcement made on 8 December, including Best Motion Picture for Musical or Comedy.

Paul Thomas Anderson helmed the Leo-starrer

It is also nominated for Best Performance for Chase Infiniti and Leonardo DiCaprio, Best Performance in a Supporting Role for Teyana Taylor and Benicio Del Toro and Sean Penn, as well as Best Director for Paul Thomas Anderson.
