The Academy Awards are known worldwide, and here are the odds for the best actor at the 95th ceremony of this global spectacle.
Before Betting on the 95th Academy Awards
Besides the best movie and the best actress, the central and the most popular award is the one for the best actor. Daniel Day-Lewis is the record-holder with three Oscars, while Laurene Olivier and Spencer Tracy had the most nominations, nine.
This year we have three candidates that stand above all others – Brendan Fraser, Colin Farrell, and Austin Butler. These three actors have the odds far more favorable than other superstars.
95th Academy Awards Offshore Odds
Brendan Fraser’s role in the emotional drama The Whale, left the biggest impression on the spectators and critics. That’s why this 54-year-old sits atop the favorites list for winning the Oscar.
After Fraser comes Austin Butler, who played Elvis Presley in the musical biopic Elvis. The Anaheim-born was memorable while portraying the most significant musician of the 20th century and one of the biggest stars in American culture.
Colin Farrell is next. Pádraic Súilleabháin is the leading character in the movie The Banshees of Inisherin, and this role could bring Farrell an Oscar following two Golden Globe awards.
Besides the three actors mentioned above, two more are in the mix, Bill Nighty for the role in the movie Living and Paul Mescal, who played in the Aftersun. Though, nobody expects to see them winning the Oscar.
