Zoe Saldaña accepts the award for best supporting actress in a motion picture at the Golden Globes Sunday night for her role in the film Emilia Pérez.

Updated January 06, 2025 at 00:56 AM ET

Demi Moore, Zoe Saldaña, Kieran Culkin and Adrien Brody all took home awards Sunday night at the 82nd Golden Globes.

Comedian Nikki Glaser hosted the event in Beverly Hills, California.

The queer musical-thriller Emilia Pérez led the night in wins from the film categories, taking home four awards of their 10 nominations, including a supporting actress award for Saldaña and the Golden Globe for best motion picture, musical or comedy. The Brutalist ended the night with three awards, including the Golden Globe for best motion picture, drama, and a best actor win for star Adrien Brody.

On the television side, FX's Shōgun took home four awards, winning in every category the show was nominated for, including acting awards for stars Hiroyuki Sanada, Anna Sawai and Tadanobu Asano. Hacks and Baby Reindeer also took home two awards apiece.

This year's ceremony comes after years of Golden Globes turmoil. In 2021, the Los Angeles Times reported that there were no Black members in the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA), which founded the awards in 1944. NBC cancelled the 2022 awards telecast, and studios and stars boycotted the ceremony in protest.

Longtime Globes producer Dick Clark Productions and Eldridge Industries, a holding company, acquired the awards in 2023. (Dick Clark Productions is owned, in part, by Penske Media Corporation, which publishes a number of outlets including Variety, The Hollywood Reporter, and Rolling Stone.) An expanded voting body of 334 entertainment journalists from around the world now vote on the awards.

Below are the 2025 Golden Globes nominees, with winners marked in bold.
