Larson picked up a Best Actress, Drama nomination on Thursday for her performance in Room, which is a big screen adaptation of the novel of the same name by Emma Donoghue.
Larson is one of the stars to watch out for next year as Room is set to send her star rocketing - we may just see her in the Oscar mix as well.
Speaking about her first Golden Globe nomination, the actress said: "Wow. My deepest thanks to the HFPA - I am beyond honoured, grateful, thrilled and every other imaginable emotion to be in the company of such an inspirational group of women, and to share this morning's recognition with Emma, Lenny, the entire cast and crew of Room, as well as Amy Schumer and the cast and crew of Trainwreck.
"What a morning! And thanks to Jacob Tremblay - you have made every day of this journey magic."
Room picked up three nominations, including Best Motion Picture - Drama and Best Screenplay for Emma Donoghue; who has adapted her own novel into a script.
The movie follows Jack and his mother who escape the confined space that they have been kept in and five-year-old Jack sees the outside world for the first time.
Larson takes on the role of Ma and Jacob Tremblay the role of Jack. The duo is joined on the cast list by Sean Bridgers, Joan Allen, and William H. Macy.
Larson has a very busy 2016 ahead of her as she has already completed work on Basmati Blues and Free Fire. She is currently filming Kong: Skull Island alongside Tom Hiddleston, Samuel L. Jackson, John Goodman, and Toby Kebbell.
Room is released 15th January 2016. And the Golden Globe winners will be announced 10th January 2016.
