The Golden Globe nominations are announced on February 3 at 8 a.m. ET (5 a.m. PT).
Insider predicts which movies and TV shows will make it into the line-up.
"Mank," "The Trial of the Chicago 7," and "The Queen's Gambit" will all earn plenty of nominations.
The Golden Globes are not usually the most reliable predictor of the Academy Awards, but they're pretty fun in their own right.
Given out by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA), the Globes recognizes the best-made productions in both the movie and the TV industry, making for one hell of a long awards ceremony.
The nominations for the 78th Golden Globe Awards will be announced on February 3 at 8 a.m. ET/5 a.m. PT, while the ceremony itself will take place on February 28.
Insider has gone through all of the possible nominees and predicted who we think will make the cut.
