The nominees for the 78th annual Golden Globe Awards were announced on Wednesday.

Former Golden Globe winners Sarah Jessica Parker and Taraji P. Henson joined forces to announce the first round of 12 nominations during the "Today Show." 

One of the breakout stars getting a lot of attention in the 2021 season was Sacha Baron Cohen, whose film "Borat Subsequent Moviefilm" was nominated for best actor in a motion picture, musical or comedy. In addition, his more dramatic role in "The Trial of the Chicago 7" earned a nomination for best drama and him a solo award for acting.

Despite the Hollywood Foreign Press Association showing a lot of love for Cohen's roles in 2020, David Fincher's "Mank" topped the list of nominees with 6 total nods. Netflix, meanwhile, came out on top with its original film and TV content for the year earning a hearty amount of nominations.
