Last night on NBC there was a commercial for the Globes and it showed a lot of people who would be there, it also said their names. The only one who hasn't been confirmed was Renee Zellweger so I assume that she is going to be a presenter.

I'm sure Johnny Depp will be presenting Actress- Musical/Comedy. As for the rest of the film acting categories some of last years winners may be announced very soon.

Still can't believe they are going to have Shahrukh Khan at the Globes! Awesome. Can't wait for the American audience to get to see him. Obviously Slumdog's chance's at a win is even greater now. I hope Dev Patel and Frieda Pinto can make it to present or support the film! Same for the cast of The Dark Knight.
He isn't just "some Bollywood guy". Its Shahrukh Kahn. Pretty much the biggest actor in Bollywood and my personal favorite Bollywood actor. The Brad Pitt/George Clooney of Bollywood. I just find it funny the Globes decided to invite him to present. He is presenting Best Picture Drama I hear. Which also means.....Slumdog will probably take it. We'll see. But Slumdog will probably take it.
Martin Scorsese (assuming alone) will do the tribute to Steven Spielberg.
Eva Mendes is introducing the HFPA president.
