Golden Globes 2026 updates: Highlights of the night's biggest moments, winners and style

At the end of the Golden Globes, host Nikki Glaser gave a nod to renowned director Rob Reiner and his wife Michele, weeks after their deaths, by wearing a "Spinal Tap" hat.

Rob Reiner directed 1984’s "This Is Spinal Tap" as well as the sequel, which was released in 2025.

Rob and Michele Reiner were stabbed to death in their home in Brentwood, California, on Dec. 14.

Their son Nick Reiner was taken into custody hours after their bodies were discovered. The 32-year-old is charged with two counts of first-degree murder with the special circumstance of multiple murders and has not entered a plea.

Rob Reiner rose to prominence in Norman Lear's sitcom "All in the Family" and is known for films including "When Harry Met Sally…,” "Stand By Me” and “The Princess Bride.”

"Hamnet" won the Golden Globe for best picture (drama), beating "Frankenstein," "It Was Just An Accident," "The Secret Agent," "Sentimental Value" and "Sinners."

Executive producer Steven Spielberg and director Chloé Zhao accepted the award onstage.

"One Battle After Another” won the Golden Globe for best picture (musical or comedy).

Other nominees in the category were "Blue Moon," "Bugonia," "Marty Supreme," "No Other Choice" and "Nouvelle Vague.”

Wagner Moura took home the award for best performance by a male actor in a motion picture (drama) for his role in "The Secret Agent." The thriller also won best motion picture (non-English language).

"'The Secret Agent' is a film about memory, or the lack of memory, and generational trauma," Moura said in his acceptance speech. "I think, if trauma can be passed along generations, values can, too. So this is to the ones that are sticking with their values in difficult moments."

The other best actor nominees were Dwayne Johnson ("The Smashing Machine"), Jeremy Allen White ("Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere"), Joel Edgerton ("Train Dreams"), Michael B. Jordan ("Sinners") and Oscar Isaac ("Frankenstein").
