2025 Golden Globes winner predictions: Official odds for ‘Anora,’ ‘The Brutalist,’ and all nominees
With Hollywood’s biggest party of the year just days away, the final odds are in.
The Brutalist, the period piece about a Holocaust survivor who tries to achieve the American dream, is predicted to lead the Golden Globes with four victories: drama film, drama actor for Adrien Brody, director for Brady Corbet, and score for Daniel Blumberg, according to Gold Derby’s final winner predictions. Next in line on the movie side is Anora, which tells the story of a sex worker who marries the wrong man, with three forecasted wins: comedy film, comedy actress for Mikey Madison, and screenplay for Sean Baker.
Meanwhile, the two big television champs are expected to be FX’s historical epic Shōgun (drama series, drama actor for Hiroyuki Sanada, and drama actress for Anna Sawai), and Netflix’s stalker thriller Baby Reindeer (limited series, limited actor for Richard Gadd, and supporting actress for Jessica Gunning). Both of these programs recently dominated the Emmy Awards.
