After being pushed back two months due to uncertainties surrounding COVID-19, the 78th Annual Golden Globe Awards has been generating a lot of buzz with potential nominees waiting to be announced on Feb. 3. 

The live ceremony is set to be hosted by Tina Fey and Amy Poehler at the Beverly Hilton on NBC. Unlike previous years, this year’s movie season had its fair share of difficulties with the pandemic causing challenges for initial release dates. Instead of theaters, new films were released on streaming services.

This year’s Golden Globes, which is to be aired on Feb. 28, is coming two months later than it would normally air and is taking over the date that the Oscars originally claimed. 

Nonetheless, people have been talking about their ideas for the potential nominees that could be announced. Here are a list of some strong contenders for both television and film:
