Golden Globes 2020 Predictions: From Joaquin Phoenix to Scarlett Johansson, here's who we think will win

One of the biggest award ceremonies before the prestigious Oscars is the Golden Globe Awards, which is in its 77th year now. This time, the nominations are so diverse that it's difficult to choose a personal favourite to win. Whether it be Martin Scorsese's directorial The Irishman, which is being touted as the filmmaker's best work to date or even Sam Mendes' 1917, which is a classic award-bait film. In the television categories, we have shows like Fleabag, Barry, Succession and The Morning Show in the running.

When it comes to the acting categories, Joaquin Phoenix is the frontrunner to take the Best Actor Golden Globe but the Joker star could have his thunder stolen by Adam Driver, who delivers a soul-stirring performance in Marriage Story. Speaking of the Noah Baumbach directorial, Scarlett Johansson may very well win a Golden Globe for her heartbreaking performance as well. Phoebe Waller-Bridge and Bill Hader may have an Emmys 2019 moment as they win the Best Actor and Best Actress Golden Globe for their respective comedy series - Fleabag and Barry.
