Awards season has officially begun, and some of Hollywood’s biggest stars stepped out to celebrate the past year’s biggest TV shows and movies.
Chelsea Handler returns to host the Critics Choice Awards for her fourth consecutive year on Sunday, January 4. “Kicking off the year with the Critics Choice Awards feels right — nothing says ‘new beginnings’ like a room full of critics ready to tell you how you did last year,” she said in a statement about the awards ceremony, which is held at the Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, California.
Leading this year’s TV nominees is the Netflix miniseries Adolescence with a total of six, including Best Limited Series, Best Actor in a Limited Series or Movie Made for Television for Stephen Graham, Best Supporting Actor in a Limited Series or Movie Made for Television for Owen Cooper, and more.
