LOS ANGELES (CelebrityAccess) — The Hollywood Foreign Press Association has revealed its nominees for the 2016 Golden Globe Awards.
"Spotlight," "The Revenant," "Carol," "Mad Max: Fury Road," and "Room" all received Golden Globe nominations for dramatic film, while "The Martian," "The Big Short," " Trainwreck," "Joy " and "Spy" all earned nominations in the motion picture comedy or musical category nominations.
Ricky Gervais will return as host of the 73rd Annual Golden Globe Awards when it takes place on Jan. 10, 2016 at the Beverly Hilton Hotel. Gervais hosted the show previously from 2010 to 2012, gaining a controversial reputation at the time for his rather bracing approach to comedy.
“I’d like to quash this ridiculous rumor going around that the only reason The Tourist was nominated was so the HFPA could hang out with Johnny Depp and Angelina Jolie. That is rubbish. That is not the only reason. They also accepted bribes.” (That line is what presumably prompted the HFPA president to shoot back, “Ricky, next time you want me to help you qualify your movies, go to another guy," Gervais joked while hosting in 2011.
