Who has been nominated at the 2026 Golden Globe Awards?
Among the nominees list were four incredible Australian actors: Jacob Elordi, Sarah Snook, Rose Byrne and Joel Edgerton.
Jacob, 28, has received two nods for his role in Frankenstein and the limited series, The Narrow Road to The Deep North.
Sarah has been nominated for her incredible performance in All Her Fault. This isn’t her first nomination! Sarah was nominated for Supporting Actress in a Series, Miniseries, or Motion Picture for TV in 2022 and won Best Actress in a Drama Series in 2024.
While speaking to Deadline about her nod for If I Had Legs I’d Kick You, Rose shared her gratitude to be back in the mix after her 2010 and 2008 Golden Globe nominations.
“I’m so thrilled and honoured to be amongst this group of extraordinary actresses. They’re all just brilliant and bring everything to their art form. I’m such a fan. Our movie is such a tiny movie, and the movie is the character, and the character is the movie. So, this nomination feels like a true acknowledgement of Mary Bronstein’s singular, brilliant, unique, and extraordinary film,” she said.
Lastly, Joel has been nominated for his performance in Train Dreams. He was previously nominated in 2017 for Best Actor in a Drama Motion Picture.
Even Avatar: Fire and Ash – which will be released on December 18, 2025 – starring Australia’s own Sam Worthington, has received two nominations. These nominations include Best Original Song, and Cinematic and Box Office Achievement.
These nominations have come as a shock to Sam’s wife, Lara (nee Bingle), who commented on an Instagram post congratulating the cast and crew of Avatar.
“Box office achievement?? The movie isn’t even out yet !!!” Lara commented.
