- The film has emerged as one of the most celebrated releases of the year, with a chance to break records for most Golden Globe nominations

In a surprising move, acclaimed director Paul Thomas Anderson's latest film "One Battle After Another" will be competing in the comedy categories at the upcoming Golden Globe Awards. The Warner Bros. epic, loosely inspired by Thomas Pynchon's novel "Vineland," follows a group of former revolutionaries who reunite to rescue a comrade's daughter after a long-dormant enemy reemerges.
The film's ensemble cast includes some of Hollywood's biggest names, such as Leonardo DiCaprio, Sean Penn, and Benicio Del Toro, along with rising stars like Regina Hall and Teyana Taylor. Despite its action-thriller premise, the filmmakers and studio strategists felt the movie's unique blend of absurdist humor and Anderson's trademark intensity made it a natural fit for the comedy and musical races.
