Movie News After Dark
Golden Globe Noms are in, the Critics Have Chosen, The OA is Coming and Fate of the Furious Trailer is Out,
The day’s top headlines in bite-size portions.
The big news of the day has to be the Golden Globe Nominations, which were announced this morning. As expected, Damien Chazelle’s La La Land leads the pack with seven nominations in the film categories, with Barry Jenkins’ Moonlight hot on its heels with six nods. Over on the television side of things, The People vs O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story was the nominations king, with five; The Night Manager starring Tom Hiddleston was next in line with four. Deadpool surprised with a couple nominations, one for Best Comedy and one for Ryan Reynolds, and Meryl Streep will be receiving the Cecil B. DeMille Award during the ceremony; sheis also nominated for Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy for Florence Foster Jenkins. Among the biggest snubs of the year, Mr. Robot, who WON Best TV Drama last year for its first season, failed to even get recognized for its second. Series star Rami Malek is nominated, but nothing for the show, which saw a lot of criticism leveled its way this year in regards to pacing and narrative.
Check out the complete list of nominees below, and our write-up, then tune in to NBC on January 8th when the winners will be announced. Jimmy Fallon is your host, because we can’t have nice things.

Speaking of awards shows, the first big one of the year happened last night over on A&E, the Critics Choice Awards. TJ Miller (Deadpool, Silicon Valley) was your host, and among the winners – who historically go on to garner Oscar nominations – the big standouts were Natalie Portman, who won Best Actress for Jackie, and Casey Affleck, who continued his awards-season onslaught with a Best Actor win for Manchester by the Sea. However it was Chazelle’s La La Land which took home the Best Picture prize. Check out the complete winners below.

The other big news over the weekend was the release of the 8th Fast and Furious movie, now ominously titled The Fate of the Furious. Our own Rob Hunter found a seeming commonality between the film and a certain beloved 80s cartoon. Check out his thoughts as well as the trailer right here.
And lastly, about a year ago Netflix revealed that they had given Brit Marling and Zal Batmanglij (Sound of My Voice, The East) a series they were calling The OA, then that was pretty much it. If you’re a ravenous fan of these two as I am, the wait for information has been excruciating. There’s been no casting details, no plot details, no footage reveals, not even a release date to pine for. Well, all of that changed today in a big, big way. The streaming service is release all eight episodes of The OA this Friday, and in addition to the cast and the synopsis, we also got thefirst trailer.
Synopsis first: “The Netflix original series The OA, which launches this Friday, is from visionaries Brit Marling and Zal Batmanglij, who created and wrote the eight chapter, mind-bending odyssey together. The show begins with a missing blind girl in her twenties, Prairie Johnson (Brit Marling), who comes home to the community she grew up in with her sight restored. Some hail her a miracle, others a dangerous mystery, but Prairie won’t talk about her seven years missing with the FBI or her parents.”
Salivating yet, Stranger Things fans? You should be. In addition to Marling, the series co-stars Emory Cohen, Scott Wilson, Phyllis Smith, Jason Isaacs, Alice Krige, Patrick Gibson, Brendan Meyer, and newcomers Ian Alexander and Brandon Perea. Now for the trailer:
Oh yeah, that’s everything I was waiting for and a whole bunch more. Marling and Batmanglij craft heady, atmospheric, unpredictable narratives and The OA would seem to fall well within those parameters. Hang on to those Best TV of 2016 lists, there’s a contender on the horizon.
That’s all for now, enjoy your evening and we’ll see you back here tomorrow for more Movie News After Dark.
