It’s an honor just to be nominated!
And the stars who received nominations for the 75th annual Golden Globes were definitely basking in the glory.
The full list of nominees, announced Monday morning, included films like Get Out, The Disaster Artist, and I, Tonya. TV nominees included Big Little Lies, Game of Thrones, Stranger Things, and Will & Grace.
Honorees of the big and small screen reacted to their projects’ nominations with gratitude, excitement, and, in the case of Seth Rogen, jokes about “big Hollywood awards.” See the stars’ reactions (below)!
Over 7 years ago we began the journey to get @GreatestShowman made into a major motion picture. Through all of the (literal) blood, sweat and tears …. giving up was never an option. As it is said – with great risk comes great reward. Thank you #HFPA! @goldenglobes pic.twitter.com/qgyZ5v9AUh
