What Films Have Received a Nomination?

Six films have earned a nod for Best Motion Picture – Drama at the upcoming Golden Globes.

The 2025 nominees are:

  • Dune: Part Two
  • The Nickel Boys
  • A Complete Unknown
  • September 5
  • The Brutalist
  • Conclave

What Movie is Most Likely to Win?

The odds are firmly in The Brutalist’s favor to win Best Motion Picture – Drama at the upcoming Golden Globes 2025.

The film, directed by Brady Corbet and starring Adrien Brody, tells the story of a Jewish architect hoping to rebuild his life and marriage in post-war America after escaping The Holocaust.

The nomination stands the film in good stead for a Best Picture nomination at the Academy Awards 2025. If it wins the Golden Globe, it is in a much stronger position to receive an Oscar nod and potentially secure the award.

Conclave might not be the frontrunner for Best Motion Picture – Drama, but it is a strong contender for the award.

The film has received the most nominations at the upcoming Golden Globes, earning six nods in various categories, proving its popularity among HFPA.

The critically acclaimed film tells the story of a cardinal (Ralph Fiennes) tasked with finding a new pope, but he soon uncovers dark secrets that could destroy the Catholic church.

Following the success of Dune: Part Two, it is hardly a surprise to see the flick receive a nomination.

However, many fans are outraged that the film only received two nominations at the 82nd Golden Globes, suggesting it isn’t as popular with HFPA as the above two movies.

Nickel Boys hasn’t been a frontrunner in the Best Picture Oscar race, but the film has received the acclaim it deserves by receiving a Best Motion Picture – Drama nomination at the Golden Globes.

If you look at its many positive reviews, it is easy to see why it has received a nod, and the American Film Institute ranked it one of the top ten films of 2024.

However, it faces stiff competition from the above flicks, which have a stronger chance of receiving the award in 2025.

Thanks to Timothee Chalamet’s impressive performance as a young Bob Dylan in A Complete Unknown, the movie has received a nomination.

It is a dark horse in the race, but it has earned many glowing reviews that could help it scoop the award.

Less likely to win is September 5, as it is up against some pretty big films in the category.

However, the film, which tells the story of the hostage crisis during the 1972 Olympics, has earned much acclaim from top critics, meaning you shouldn’t rule it out.

Find out what film wins Best Motion Picture – Drama by watching the 82nd Golden Globe Awards on CBS on Sunday, January 5, 2025, at 8 pm ET. Alternatively, you can stream the event on Paramount+.

If you believe September 5 will win Best Motion Picture Drama at the Golden Globes 2025, you could win $5000 by betting $100 at 1xBet if it happens.
