Co-starring Tracy Letts, Timothée Chalamet and Lucas Hedges, Lady Bird was also nominated for Best Actress in a Motion Picture Comedy, which Ronan won for, Best Supporting Actress in a Motion Picture (Metcalf) and Best Screenplay (Gerwig).
With 2018’s fantastic assortment of Golden Globes contenders, it was more difficult than ever to pinpoint who might take home the gold. This year’s nominees for Best Motion Picture Comedy include critically-acclaimed faves Lady Bird and Get Out, alongside less-likely underdogs I, Tonya, The Disaster Artist, and The Greatest Showman.
With this key Golden Globe win under its belt, Lady Bird’s shot at the Oscars may have just become a little more certain.
