The Marty Supreme and Hamnet stars are jockeying for pole position for the big Hollywood prize after a night in which One Battle After Another and Adolescence were also recognised

Timothée Chalamet and Jessie Buckley have surged into serious contention for the Oscars for their roles in, respectively, Marty Supreme and Hamnet, after picking up the top prizes for acting at the Critics Choice awards on Sunday.

Chalamet, who has been on a highly visible promotional tour for the film, defeated Oscar favourite Leonardo DiCaprio (One Battle After Another) in the best actor race, as well as Michael B Jordan (Sinners) and Ethan Hawke (Blue Moon). Chalamet, who plays a wannabe table-tennis champ in the early 1950s in Marty Supreme, thanked Kylie Jenner in his acceptance speech, saying: “Thank you to my partner for three years … I love you. I couldn’t do this without you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.”

When the president targeted me and my TV show, millions said no. So don’t give up on us – and always remember, we’re not all like him

I have no idea if you know who I am, but I was asked to deliver this year’s alternative Christmas message (which I’ve heard is a big deal) so I hope you do, but if not I host what you call a chatshow (we call it a talkshow) in what you call the colonies, I think? I honestly have no idea what’s going on over there.

I do know what’s going on over here though, and I can tell you that, from a fascism perspective, this has been a really great year. Tyranny is booming over here.

TV host who came under pressure from Trump government will say: ‘From a fascism perspective, this has been a really great year’

The US comedian whose late-night show was briefly cancelled after pressure from Donald Trump’s government is to urge UK audiences to stand up for free speech.

In a defiant alternative Christmas message on Channel 4, Jimmy Kimmel will liken the first year of Trump’s second administration to the rise of fascism.

Late-night hosts recapped Trump’s national address and further insights from chief of staff Susie Wiles’s interview

Late-night hosts discussed – or ignored – Donald Trump’s surprise primetime address and dug further into the explosive new interview the White House chief of staff, Susie Wiles.

‘You’ve done this before,’ comedian told president, who ranted about Kimmel online and demanded his firing

Early on Thursday morning, Donald Trump made another plea for ABC to fire the late-night comedian Jimmy Kimmel, writing on his Truth Social platform that he has “NO TALENT” and “VERY POOR TELEVISION RATINGS”.

On his show later that night, Kimmel was defiant, poking at the president for his previous attempt this fall to get him fired and suggesting that Trump had clearly been watching his show.
