Hans Zimmer already has two Golden Globes. Now another trophy could be added. The nominations have now been announced in 25 film and television categories.
Star composer Hans Zimmer (64) could win another Golden Globe trophy. Born in Frankfurt, his composition for the science fiction drama “Dune” earned him his 14th nomination in the “Best Film Music” category.
He already has two Globes, 1995 for “The Lion King” and 2001 for “Gladiator”. Four other candidates are in the running with Zimmer. The tragic comedy “Ich bin dein Mensch” by director Maria Schrader did not make it into the category “Best non-English language film”.
With seven nominations each, the dramas “Belfast” and “The Power of the Dog” are among the favorites in the race for the Golden Globes. The Spielberg musical “West Side Story”, the tragic comedy “Licorice Pizza”, the satire “Don’t Look Up” and the sports drama “King Richard” also have several chances to win.
The nominations for the awards of the Association of the Foreign Press (HFPA) in 25 film and television categories were announced on Monday.
The actors who have been nominated for a Globe include Lady Gaga (“House of Gucci”), Kristen Stewart (“Spencer”), Nicole Kidman and Javier Bardem in “Being the Ricardos” and Denzel Washington (“Macbeth”) ).
The trophies in the form of a gold-colored globe are to be awarded on January 9th. The format of the 79th award is still open. The small HFPA association came under heavy criticism and reform pressure this year due to a lack of diversity and lack of transparency. House broadcaster NBC, which has broadcast the gala since 1996, does not want to host a TV show in 2022. Globe contenders could stay away from the normally star-studded awards ceremony.
