Netflix’s Roma is shaping up to be a major contender in this year’s award race, as Alfonso Cuaron’s drama has bagged three Golden Globe nominations, including Best Director, Best Screenplay and Best Motion Picture (Foreign Language). Netflix’s Oscar hopeful isn’t up for Best Picture at the Globes, but that’s because it isn’t eligible: the Hollywood Foreign Press Association reserves that gong for English-language movies only, which means you can expect it to vie for the top prize at the Academy Awards next year.

In the meantime, Vice and A Star Is Born are leading the pack. Adam McKay’s Dick Cheney biopic is up for six prizes, ahead of Bradley Cooper’s directorial debut, up for five – joint with The Favourite and Green Book. A Star Is Born dominates the major categories, including Best Actress for Lady Gaga, Best Actor and Director for Cooper, Best Original Song Shallow (where it will face off against Netflix’s Dumplin’). The Favourite, meanwhile, is up for Best Actress (Musical or Comedy) for Britain’s own Olivia Colman and Best Supporting Actress for Rachel Weisz. Both Viggo Mortensen (Best Actor) and Mahershala Ali (Best Supporting Actor) are nominated for their roles in Green Book. (Also competing in Best Supporting Actor is Timothée Chalamet for Amazon Studios’ Beautiful Boy.)

While both The Favourite and Green Book are nominated for Best Musical or Comedy, this year’s notable Drama nominee is Black Panther, the first time a superhero movie has earned a nod for Best Picture – it will face off with If Beale Street Could Talk, BlackKkKlansman and Bohemian Rhapsody, as well as A Star Is Born. If Roma does get the Best Picture nod at the Academy Awards, as expected, it will face some stiff competition. (Hopefully, that competition will also include some female directors or a nomination for Roma’s star, Yalitza Aparicio.)

On the small screen, meanwhile, Netflix has fallen behind rival Amazon Studios, which is dominating both the Drama and Musical or Comedy categories. The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel continues to live up to its name by repeating its nods for Best TV Musical or Comedy and Best Actress in a TV Comedy for Rachel Brosnahan. It is the only series to bag back-to-back nominations for Best TV Series in either Comedy or Drama category.

Mrs. Maisel’s Alex Borsten is also nominated Best Supporting Actress in a TV Series, opposite Patricia Clarkson in HBO’s Sharp Objects, Thandie Newton in Westworld, Yvonn Strahovski in The Handmaid’s Tale and Penelope Cruz in The Assassination of Gianni Versace.

Amazon’s Homecoming, meanwhile, is up for Best TV Drama, as well as Best Actress in a TV Drama for Julia Roberts. Roberts will have to compete with Elisabeth Moss in The Handmaid’s Tale and Outlander’s Caitriona Balfe as well as Sandra Oh in Killing Eve.

BBC Three’s series, created by Fleabag’s Phoebe Waller-Bridge, is also up for Best TV Drama, marking a strong year for the Beeb: A Very English Scandal is up for Best Limited Series and Best Actor (Hugh Grant), plus Best Supporting Actor (Ben Whishaw).

Netflix’s TV nominations, meanwhile, include Regina King in Seven Seconds, nominated for Best Actress in a Limited Series, Alison Brie in GLOW, up for Best Actress in a TV Comedy (opposite Mrs. Maisel’s Brosnahan), Jason Bateman, up for Best Actor in a TV Drama for Ozark – opposite Homecoming’s Stephan James and Richard Madden for BBC One’s Bodyguard.

Netflix’s hopes otherwise rest on The Kominsky Method, which is up for Best TV Comedy Series, as well as Best Actor (Michael Douglas) and Best Supporting Actor (Alan Arkin). Douglas will compete with a diverse field of nominees that includes Donald Glover for Atlanta, while Arkin is nominated opposite Gianni Versace’s Edgar Ramirez, Barry’s Henry Winkler and Kieran Culkin for HBO’s Succession.

Indeed, even without Game of Thrones, HBO continues to dominate across a wide range of programming, with Sharp Objects up for Best Limited Series and Laura Dern’s The Tale up for Best Actress in a Limited Series or TV Movie, alongside Sharp Objects’ Amy Adams. Benedict Cumberbatch is also up for Best Actor in a Limited Series for HBO’s Patrick Melrose.

The 2019 Golden Globe winners will be announced on 6th January, in a ceremony hosted by Sandra Oh and Andy Samberg.
