Ana de Armas, Billy Porter and Quentin Tarantino are set to add some star power to next week’s Golden Globes.
They’ll be among the big-name presenters at the Jan. 10 awards show at The Beverly Hilton in Southern California, organizers announced Tuesday.
Tracy Morgan, Jamie Lee Curtis, Michaela Jaé Rodriguez, Colman Domingo, Ana Gasteyer, Natasha Lyonne, Niecy Nash-Betts and Nicole Byer will also present awards at the ceremony honoring the year’s best in film and television.
The Golden Globes return to NBC this year after the network dropped coverage of the 2022 show due to controversies surrounding the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, which organizes the event. The HPFA didn’t have a single Black member, the Los Angeles Times reported in 2021, and has since added 103 voters from different backgrounds for the 2023 show.
De Armas is a two-time Golden Globes nominee, including this year for best actress in a drama film for her portrayal of Marilyn Monroe in “Blonde.”
Porter is a three-time nominee for the series “Pose.” Tarantino is a three-time winner in the best screenplay category for “Pulp Fiction,” “Django Unchained” and “Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood,” which also won best musical or comedy in 2020.
Rodriguez won the Globe for best actress in a drama series last year for “Pose,” while Curtis is a two-time winner out of eight nominations.
Organizers say this year’s ceremony will also feature pianist Chloe Flower, who is set to release a new song, “Golden Hour.”
Top contenders at the 2023 Golden Globes include “The Banshees of Inisherin,” a dark dive into a damaged friendship, which led all films with eight nominations, and the school-set comedy series “Abbott Elementary,” which led all shows with five nods.
The finalists for best drama film include Tom Cruise’s high-flying sequel “Top Gun: Maverick,” James Cameron’s splashy science-fiction epic “Avatar: The Way of Water,” Steven Spielberg’s semi-autobiographical “The Fabelmans,” Baz Luhrmann’s Elvis Presley biopic “Elvis” and the Cate Blanchett-led “Tár.”
