The Golden Globes are the first big prizes of the cinema awards season, with the ceremony taking place in January 2025.

Golden Globes: Best animated film

Meanwhile, in the best animated film category, Inside Out 2, Memoir of a Snail, Moana 2, Wallace and Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl and The Wild Robot have all been nominated.

The Golden Globe awards are run by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, which is made up of foreign journalists who report on film news from America back in their home countries.

The association purposely holds the awards before the Oscars, which is the biggest of the movie awards that films and actors c an win.

They're called the Golden Globes because the shape of the award is a globe, which is golden and has a strip of old-fashioned film reel running around it.
