Zoë’s Oscar Predictions – September 23rd

What a difference a week can make, huh?

I already discussed this Wednesday’s major Oscar shake-up – Michelle Williams’ mind-boggling move from the Best Supporting Actress category to Best Actress – in a separate piece, but there’s still a lot more to dig into. Namely, can Michelle Williams contend for the win in her new category as well? Or will Michelle Yeoh and Cate Blanchett put up too much of a fight? It’s too early to say, but here’s where I’m settling for the time being: I think it’s gonna be the battle of the Michelles. I know a lot of pundits are sticking with Cate Blanchett right now – which makes sense, as the recent Volpi Cup winner has received non-stop raves since TÁR premiered on the festival circuit – but I remain skeptical for two reasons. One, let’s not underestimate how divisive TÁR (a very cold and coarse film) could be, and two, we have to acknowledge that Blanchett is not only a former Oscar winner, but a former two-time Oscar winner. Sure, you can point to Frances McDormand and say “that doesn’t matter” (I’ll counter by saying that the 2020 Best Actress race is a massive anomaly for MANY reasons), but as we saw last year with Jessica Chastain, being “overdue” can certainly sway the race in your favor when your closest competitors (Penélope Cruz and Nicole Kidman, in her instance) have already had their “time to shine” and now it’s “your turn.”

And frankly, both Yeoh and Williams have MASSIVE “overdue” narratives that could be impossible to ignore. For Yeoh, it’s the fact that she hasn’t even been nominated for an Oscar once in her legendary career (despite coming close with Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon), and this may be the best chance she’s ever had – and may ever get – for a nom and a win. For Williams, it’s the fact that this will be her fifth nomination, and after turning in tremendous work for decades, it truly feels like it’s “her moment” to be anointed with an Academy Award. In the end, I think the contender from the film that has the better chance in Best Picture will prevail, and right now, since I assume that to be Everything Everywhere All at Once, I’m gonna put Yeoh first and see how that feels. (Plus, we have to admit that, given that Williams’ role is technically supporting, she’s going to to be facing an uphill battle for a Best Actress win no matter how overdue she is – especially going up against someone like Yeoh who is in almost every frame of her film, with EEAAO also essentially doubling as a two and a half hour tribute to the actress, reminding audiences of all she’s given to cinema in her 40+ years in the industry).

Now, you might be wondering what’s happened to Margot Robbie, who has been my Best Actress frontrunner since my first predictions of the season. Well, once it was announced that Michelle Williams had evacuated the Best Supporting Actress category, she left a massive opening for a new frontrunner to emerge, but it’s proved difficult for pundits to suss out who that new frontrunner is, considering that, before Williams left, we hadn’t really given any thought to the “runner-up.” In fact, most of the conversation surrounding the other contenders concerned their chances for nominations, not wins. There are a lot of compelling candidates who can crack the line-up now in Williams’ absence (Stephanie Hsu for Everything Everywhere All at Once, Janelle Monáe for Glass Onion: A Knives Out Story, Sadie Sink for The Whale, etc.) but few have the “sure-thing” winning narrative that Williams did – which makes things really interesting. Most people have simply moved everyone in their Best Supporting Actress predictions “up one,” which means that many likely have Claire Foy or Jessie Buckley at #1 now for Women Talking, but it still remains to be seen who becomes the industry’s MVP from that movie, and who the campaign will prioritize above all others. Given that everyone seems to have a different “standout” (though most agree that Foy probably has the most obvious “Oscar scenes”), it could be tricky for support to coalesce around one contender only.

And this is where I think Robbie – and Paramount – could make a play for the win, if they start getting savvy with their campaigning early. Initially, this “Margot Robbie is going Supporting for Babylon” belief was no more than a Film Twitter theory, but I have heard that there are no final decisions that have been made yet regarding category placements for the film, and everything is on the table (including running every actor except for Diego Calva – the story’s very obvious central character/lead – as supporting). Given that most assume that Brad Pitt will be put in Supporting Actor since Calva will be campaigned for Lead Actor, it stands to reason that Robbie could as well (even though there isn’t another actor “above” her as there is for Pitt) – by all accounts, she has similar screen time to Pitt and similarly significant storylines, while still ranking below Calva in terms of the true “lead” of this tall tale. The better way to describe her than a true “lead” or “supporting” character is perhaps as the “female lead” – this movie will be Manny’s (Calva’s character’s) story through and through, but Robbie does have the most prominent part for an actress. However, the best comparison I can make to a potential Robbie campaign in Supporting is Viola Davis’ for Fences – it’s an incredibly significant part to the story that features at the forefront of the narrative, but there are also key moments where they’re AWOL (Robbie will take a backseat in Babylon‘s third act), and at the end of the day, these films belong to Calva and Washington.

But, make no mistake about it – a Robbie campaign in Supporting would still be borderline category fraud (much as Davis’ campaign was) even if she is – as I’ve heard – “borderline between lead and supporting.” Let’s be clear though – for as good as Robbie is said to be in Babylon (and anyone who’s read the script can attest to the fact that she certainly has tremendously meaty material to tear into), her chances to win in Lead are dwindling by the day now that it’s looking to be a three-horse race between Yeoh, Williams, and Blanchett, and that competition could be too significant for Robbie to crash (not to mention the fact that, because Babylon is premiering so late, she’ll be fighting tooth and nail for a nom anyway, since the category is already filling up with the likes of Empire of Light‘s Olivia Colman, The Woman King‘s Viola Davis, and Till’s Danielle Deadwyler beyond those top three, with the astounding-looking Naomi Ackie on the way as another late arrival for I Wanna Dance With Somebody). Those who spend their days on Twitter endlessly complaining about category fraud would be staunchly against Robbie positioning herself as “supporting,” but it’s not like the precedent isn’t there (the aforementioned Davis, along with Django Unchained‘s Christoph Waltz, The Danish Girl‘s Alicia Vikander, Green Book‘s Mahershala Ali, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood‘s Brad Pitt, and Judas and the Black Messiah‘s Daniel Kaluuya), so for strategical purposes alone, this is the wisest path for her.

Other odds and ends this week in the acting races (the only races that have received significant shake-ups):

• I’ve bumped Austin Butler up in Best Actor, making him Brendan Fraser’s main challenger. At this point in time, I see Best Actor as a Fraser vs. Butler vs. Farrell race, with Farrell a distant third, but still lurking because he’s starring in a near-surefire Best Picture contender. However, it’s really going to come down to Fraser and Butler – the two actors with the biggest transformations (whose films are also the two frontrunners for Best Makeup and Hairstyling). I’m giving the Fraser the edge right now because a) he has that undeniable sympathetic comeback narrative, b) he’s been around longer and many could feel like he’s “earned” this recognition more, and c) I have his film winning the aforementioned Best Makeup/Hairstyling award. But we can’t deny that Butler gave one of the “biggest” – and most acclaimed – performances of the year and starred in a rare adult-targeted box office smash ($150 million domestic and $285 worldwide!) that is also Warner Bros.’ only real Best Picture push this year – and has a decent chance of actually getting in.

•  “Paul Dano, Judd Hirsch, or both?” is a question we’ll be asking ourselves all season in regards to The Fabelmans‘ Best Supporting Actor contenders, and, truth be told, I think it’s too soon to answer definitively. I have Hirsch right now (no matter how small his screentime, you can’t deny the way his monologue makes people feel), but there’s definitely room for Dano too, despite him having a more “muted” role emotionally, because he’ll be starring in a “top three” Best Picture player and is long overdue for his first nomination (he could take out Ben Whishaw for Women Talking – who I have in fifth, right now – if all the acting awards attention for that film centers around the ladies).
• I’ve added both Thuso Mbedu and Lashana Lynch to my Best Supporting Actress longlist for The Woman King after the film’s impressive box office overperformance and considerable critical acclaim. I think it could be tough for the two to compete with each other for consideration – Mbedu has the slightly bigger role, but Lynch is the scene-stealer – and I remain wary of The Woman King‘s chances overall and could also see a world where the previous nominated (and awarded) Viola Davis is the only actor from the cast who receives Oscar attention. Still, Mbedu and Lynch should absolutely be in the conversation – especially this far out – so let’s keep beating the drum.
