The Golden Globes bill themselves as Hollywood’s booziest bash. This year, is anyone ready to party? Political tension and industrywide uncertainty are the prevailing moods heading into Sunday night’s 83rd Golden Globes. Hollywood is coming off a disappointing box-office year and now anxiously awaits the fate of one of its most storied studios, Warner Bros. A celebratory mood might be even more elusive given that the wide majority of the performers and filmmakers congregating at the Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, California, oppose the policies of President Donald Trump. Likely to be on the minds of many attendees: the recent U.S. involvement in Venezuela and the fatal shooting of 37-year-old mother Renee Good in Minneapolis by Immigration and Customs Enforcement. But through their ups and downs, the Globes have always tried to put pomp over politics. Host Nikki Glaser has vowed as much. “You’d be surprised that half the room had no clue why I was saying ‘Venezuela,’” Glaser told The Associated Press earlier in the week, referring to her comedy-club warm-ups. “People aren’t getting the news like we all are.” Glaser, a comic known for her roast appearances, has promised to go after A-listers in her second time hosting. “We’re going to hit Leo,” Glaser said. “The icebergs are coming.” Here’s what to look for at this year’s Globes: How to watch and stream the Globes and red carpet The Golden Globes kick off at 8 p.m. EST on CBS while streaming live for Paramount+ premium subscribers. E!’s red carpet coverage begins at 6 p.m. EST. The Associated Press will be have a livestream show beginning at 4:30 p.m. Eastern with a mix of stars’ arrivals, fashion shots and celebrity interviews. It will be available on YouTube and APNews. Could Warner Bros. own the night if not itself? The overwhelming Oscar favorite “One Battle After Another” comes in with a leading nine nominations. It’s competing in the Globes’ musical or comedy category, which means the drama side might be more competitive. There, Ryan Coogler’s “Sinners,” Chloé Zhao’s “Hamnet” and Joachim Trier’s “Sentimental Value” are all in the mix. But thus far, “One Battle After Another” has cleaned up just about everywhere. Much of Paul Thomas Anderson’s cast is nominated, including DiCaprio, Teyana Taylor, Sean Penn, Chase Infiniti and Benicio Del Toro. If it and “Sinners” take home the two biggest prizes, it will be a banner night for Warner Bros. even as its future hangs in the balance. The studio has agreed to be acquired by Netflix is a deal worth $82.7 billion. Movie theaters have warned such a result would be “a direct and irreversible negative impact on movie theaters around the world.” The merger awaits regulatory approval, while Paramount Skydance is still trying to convince Warner shareholders to accept its rival offer. How might the top acting awards go? After an audacious promotional tour for “Marty Supreme,” Timothée Chalamet is poised to win his first Globe in five nominations. In best actor, comedy or musical, he’ll have to beat DiCaprio, a three-time Globe winner, and Ethan Hawke (“Blue Moon”). In best actress, comedy or musical, Rose Byrne is the favorite for her performance in the not especially funny A24 indie “If I Had Legs I’d Kick You.” One prominent nominee in the category, Cynthia Erivo (“Wicked: For Good”), won’t be attending due to her schedule in the West End production “Dracula.” Jessie Buckley (“Hamnet”) is the clear front-runner in best actress, drama. In the star-studded best actor, drama, category, the Brazilian actor Wagner Moura (“The Secret Agent”) may win over Michael B. Jordan (“Sinners”) and Joel Edgerton (“Train Dreams”). In the supporting categories, Teyana Taylor and Stellan Skarsgård come in the favorites. Who’ll give the most memorable speech? The Globes, formerly presented by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, have no overlap or direct correlation with the Academy Awards. After being sold in 2023 to Todd Boehly’s…

A man was hospitalized early Sunday after, police said, he was shot in the leg in an incident that happened in Philly’s Frankford neighborhood. According to police, the incident happened at about 9:36 a.m. on Sunday when police received a report of a shooting along the 1400 block of Adams Avenue. Officers responding to the incident found a man who was shot in his right leg, officials said. The man was taken to a nearby hospital where, police said, he was listed in stable condition. However, in a morning statement on Sunday, police said they did not immediately know a motive for this incident nor did they make any arrests in this incident. But, officials said an investigation is ongoing. This is a breaking news story. It will be updated as new information becomes available.

The New England Patriots are finally back in the NFL playoffs, and they will enter the tournament on Sunday night. Hosting the Los Angeles Chargers at Gillette Stadium, the AFC East champions will try to win a fourth game in a row and 15th overall this season. To do so, the Patriots have to bring their A-game in all three phases; despite an inferior record, L.A. is a formidable opponent capable of making life hard on any team. Needless to say that it takes an all-out effort from every player on the game day roster for that to happen. We will, however, take a close eye on the following six pivotal Patriots on Sunday night. QB Drake Maye The Patriots’ starting quarterback played at an MVP-caliber level in the regular season, but the challenge will be a different one on Sunday. Not only is the pressure higher in the win-or-go-home setting that is the NFL playoffs, he also will go up against arguably the toughest defense he has faced so far: L.A. is among the best teams in football defending the pass and particularly the vertical game. During the regular season, the Chargers allowed only 40.7% of passes beyond 10 air yards to be completed, the third-lowest rate in the NFL. In addition, they picked off 14 downfield throws, ranking second in the NFL in that particular category. Long story short, Maye needs to be at his best, and show why he has been worthy of all the MVP talk. “There’s obviously a little bit of mixed emotions,” Maye said this week. “I think the biggest thing is I’m excited, excited to get an opportunity to play home playoff games. That’s what we starred at the beginning of the season of things we want to do here and goals we want to accomplish, and we’ve got our chance and opportunity right here. So, take advantage of playing in front of a crowd that’s been great all year, a crowd that I expect to be loud, and a night game against an opponent that has had some playoff experience and has a great offense and a great defense. So, we’ve got our hands full, but I’m looking forward to playing in front of this crowd.” LT Will Campbell New England’s left tackle played a solid game in his comeback from injured reserve last Sunday against the Miami Dolphins, but as with his quarterback and the offense as a whole the challenge will be a tougher one this week. That is especially true because Campbell and fellow OT Morgan Moses will be going up against a disruptive edge rushing group headed by Pro Bowler Tuli Tuipulotu as well as Khalil Mack and Odafe Oweh. Together, the three have registered a combined 26 sacks during the regular season. And there is no telling who will line up where: the three are switching sides on the regular, meaning that Campbell could very well end up facing all three. DT Milton Williams The Patriots defensive line has faced its challenges this season, but the same is true for its counterpart this week: the Chargers O-line has struggled with consistency both in terms of available personnel and overall performance on the field. From a New England perspective, this offers opportunity for its best players to step up. Near the top of that list are defensive tackles Milton Williams and Christian Barmore, who were reunited last week with the former coming off injured reserve. Williams was comparatively quiet in Week 18 against Miami, but his presence has a positive effect on the entire group around him. On the flip side, Los Angeles’ offensive line could be in for a rough day if the high-prized free agency signing returns to his peak shape come Sunday. If Williams does so, both quarterback Justin Herbert and the team’s running game could run into issues. If not, meanwhile, the Patriots will need somebody else to step up, and that is not a given considering the inconsistent play along the D-line in recent weeks. LB Robert Spillane The Patriots’ defensive leader missed the previous four games with an ankle injury, but he will make his comeback on Sunday night. And when he does, the entire…
