The Golden Globes usually herald the quasi-official kick-off of the Hollywood award season. The voting body for the Golden Globes currently numbers 334 and is made up of experienced entertainment journalists representing 85 countries, according to the award's website.

As a premier entertainment awards show since 1944, run by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA), the annual Golden Globes has honored achievements in both television and film. In 2023, HFPA was rebranded to Golden Globe Foundation, and all Golden Globe Awards assets and intellectual property were acquired by a joint venture between Eldridge and Dick Clark Productions.
