2020 Golden Globe Predictions
Updated February 26th, 2021
If the Golden Globes want to make their “Globe-iest” choice of the night, we could see a Sarah Paulson win here. With her two biggest contenders being from the same series, there is the possibility that a split between them happens and Paulson sneaks through for the win. That being said, Emma Corin and Princess Diana were very much the talk of this season of The Crown, and with all of the attention given to the performance and the real-life woman, it’s hard to imagine Corin not taking the win. Paulson should still have a speech ready though, just in case.
1. Emma Corrin - The Crown
Based on an award-winning play ("The Audience") by showrunner Peter Morgan, this lavish, Netflix-original drama chronicles the life of Queen Elizabeth II from the 1940s to modern times. The series begins with an inside look at the early reign of the queen, who ascended the throne at age 25 after the death of her father, King George VI. As the decades pass, personal intrigues, romances, and political rivalries are revealed that played a big role in events that shaped the later years of the 20th century.
