2025 Golden Globes Nominations: Miley Cyrus, Meryl Streep and More Snubs and Surprises
For Scottish comedian Richard Gadd, it was inevitable that he’d tell his own personal horror story on stage, when he was ready.
But he couldn’t have foreseen that a scripted series inspired by his life would become Netflix’s No. 1 show in the U.S. and U.K., launch a viral conversation about trauma, stalking, privacy and the perils of posing a mystery that Internet sleuths will feel compelled to solve, and then win four Emmys.
“If Baby Reindeer has proved anything, it’s that there’s no set formula to this,” Gadd, who collected three of them as an actor-writer-producer, said in September, accepting for Outstanding Limited or Anthology Series. “Really, the only constant across any success is good storytelling. Good storytelling that speaks to our times. So, take risks, push boundaries, explore the uncomfortable, dare to fail in order to achieve.”
The seven-episode gut punch Gadd adapted from his 2019 one-man show of the same name has now added three 2025 Golden Globe nominations, including Best Miniseries or Motion Picture—Television and acting honors for Gadd and supporting actress Jessica Gunning, to its impressive tally of honors.
“I think I might need someone to pinch me to check I’m not dreaming,” Gunning said in a statement after the nominations were announced Dec. 9.
