Golden Globes 2024 nominations are finally out, with Barbie and Oppenheimer bagging the most nominations. There is something new with this year’s noms: two new categories have been introduced in the list, one of which has paved the way for Tom Cruise’s Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One and Keanu Reeves’ John Wick: Chapter 4 to grab the prestigious award. The move came after the award ceremony’s viewership dropped last year. Keep scrolling to get the deets.
Films booming at the box office didn’t have any space in the Golden Globes list previously as it only categories like Best Picture- Drama, Musical/Comedy, Non-English, and Animated. This opted out certain films that might have entertained the audiences but weren’t eligible for the nominations as they didn’t fall in any of the categories.

According to Deadline, the award shows’ ratings are dropping annually, and it claims that many of the films that mainstream viewers love are not in the Best Picture categories. Therefore, the Golden Globes has introduced a new variety to recognize and honor films that have done exceptionally well at the box office and are loved by the viewers. The viewership was only 6.4 million last year, hence the decision to bring in Cinematic & Box Office Achievement at the Golden Globes 2024.
