Betting favorites for the 95th Academy Awards: Angela Bassett is the front-runner for Best Supporting Actress
Nominees for the 2023 Academy Awards are here, which means that odds for the Oscars are here too.
Everything, Everywhere All At Once claimed the most nominations with 11 and looks like the favorite to win at least a few awards. In the acting categories, Angela Bassett was nominated for Best Supporting Actress, making her the first actor or actress to earn a nomination for their work in a Marvel movie. Bassett was fantastic in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, and apparently the Academy thought so, too.
Best Actor looks like a wide-open race between three contenders, She Said and Nope got completely blanked in nominations, and Andrea Riseborough is on the rise after earning a surprise nomination.
Meanwhile, we’re all a bit mad about Jonathan Majors and Viola Davis being snubbed.
Anyway, a lot of sportsbooks are going to offer betting lines as we inch toward the 95th Academy Awards on March 12.
Here’s what the odds-on favorites (via DraftKings) look like for Best Picture, Best Director and the acting categories:
