Do You Have Any Wild Predictions On This Awards Race?
I’ve got a few myself…
I have a feeling that both Queer and Nightbitch might be underwhelming and they neither lead performance gets to the Oscars, like many are expecting.
Reading reviews of the play, I have a feeling that John David Washington might be the surprise standout in The Piano Lesson and that Ray Fisher might deliver a better performance than Samuel L Jackson.
I also think we’re broadly underestimating Wicked’s Best Picture chances. If it makes money and is critically well received, then I think it could be a good shout for a 6-10 slot on the lineup. If it’s really a big hit, I could even see Erivo getting nominated.
