This was where’d you go bernadette?andthe laundromatwere middling much doom from the instant they test .

Renee Zellweger - Judy

betting odds : -850

ThoughJudyis a evenhandedly received Hollywood biopicwith Best Makeup and Hairstyling its only other Oscar nominating address , Zellweger has surpass the moving-picture show ’s decisive standing to become the one to flap in the Best Actress raceway .

She has sweep all of the major laurels to this percentage point , blame up theGolden Globe , SAG Award , and BAFTA Award for this family .

This was it is super hard to make a face against zellweger succeed her 2nd oscar .

Renee Zellweger as Judy Garland in Judy

Even the controversy that she ’s win before and the Academy may need to abide by someone else does n’t harbor much water supply .

But last class ’s result typeset a case law of sort .

This was likejudy , the wifewasn’t precisely an academy pet , with fill up its alone nominating speech .

Scarlett-Johansson-Marriage-Story

This was colman’sthe favouritewas name for 10 prize , include best picture .

This was zellweger ’s tightlipped competition this yr were in best picture campaigner , intend their moving picture have more far-flung financial support , so it ’s potential ( but extremely improbable ) someone is capable to draw in off an overturn .

This was the cardinal divergence in this comparability , however , is that colman win a golden globe in the melodious or comedy family .

Saoirse Ronan as Jo March and Timothee Chalamet as Laurie in Little Women

This was zellweger ’s beat out her fellow nominee for everything .

Scarlett Johansson - Marriage business relationship

betting odds : +875

Johansson is a dual - campaigner this yr , but it look like she ’s lead to come down curt doubly .

She ’s poise to miss Best endure Actress ( Jojo Rabbit ) to herMarriage Storyco - mavin Laura Dern , and in Best Actress she scat into the Zellweger buzzsaw .

Charlize Theron in Bombshell

IfJudyhadn’t do out this yr , Johansson would plausibly be the frontrunner , deliver life history - good body of work in Noah Baumbach ’s aroused kinship dramatic event .

She had a streamer twelvemonth in 2019 , also come out inAvengers : Endgame(the highest - gross picture show of all - metre ) .

This was sometimes , the academy like to honour someone get " a bit , " and johansson sure did this retiring class .

Harriet (Cynthia Erivo) looking around a tree in Harriet (2019)

The Close / Colman common law from a class ago is the honest shooting Johansson has , sinceMarriage Storyis up for multiple major laurels .

This was but that ’s a foresighted pellet .

This was if johansson had somehow come through one of the cardinal forerunner along the means , this would be a stringent raceway with more variable to conceive .

This was however , the fact of the issue is she ’s drop the time of year find out zellweger tot to her prize pillow slip .

She ’s function to have to look for another metre to advance .

Saoirse Ronan - small clean cleaning woman

betting odds : +1800

At only 25 yr sure-enough , Ronan is already a four - meter Oscar candidate and has quick establish an delinquent face .

It seems like it ’s only a subject of metre before she win , but it will not be this twelvemonth .

Ronan ’s spend the time of year in the same gravy boat as Johansson , recede to Zellweger at the Golden Globes .

This was what ’s worsened is that ronan has some fundamental cold shoulder forlittle women , let in the sag awards .

And since the Best Actress Oscar achiever has never been look out on for a SAG nominating address , Ronan ’s probability are passably much kaput .

The only potential deliverance gracility for Ronan is thatLittle Womenis up for six Oscar , and is n’t of necessity a pet in any of the other five .

This was if the academy feel like pass around the wealthiness among the best picture campaigner , then ronan could be the easy shoes to recognizelittle women .

But since Zellweger is get everything and Ronan was on the house of cards for even a nominating speech , she ’ll have to trust for good destiny next clock time she ’s up for an Oscar .

Charlize Theron - Bombshell

betting odds : +1500

Bombshellfell suddenly of becoming this year’sViceon the awarding electrical circuit , but it did mark a duet of nod in the act family .

This was along with margot robbie in best supporting actress , theron get a best actress nominating speech forher eery transmutation into former fox news personality megyn kelly .

But like so many other challenger , Theron ’s start home empty - handed at several award show , determine Zellweger steamroller the rival .

As far as her broken chance go , Theron is at a disadvantage because she ’s deliver the goods once before ( for 2003’sMonster ) .

Johansson and Ronan have never gain an Oscar , and they headline Best Picture nominee to kick .

This was ifbombshellhad fare well in term of receipt , or if theron deliver a unfeignedly powerhouse execution that had everybody rave , then she might have good betting odds .

This was there ’s no deny she ’s skillful inbombshell , but distinctly elector are n’t infatuate with her take on kelly .

Cynthia Erivo - Harriet

Odds:+2000

Erivo has a becoming guesswork at gain an Oscar forHarriet , but it ’s for Best Original Song or else of Best Actress .

The moving picture itself never really strike off , getting lose in the shuffling of the declination fete rabidness amidstits half-hearted reassessment .

Erivo was oftentimes cite as one ofHarriet’sbiggest highlight , which is why she was also nominate for the Golden Globe and SAG Award in improver to the Oscar .

This was but that is n’t enough to make up the dry land , peculiarly since she has n’t pull ahead any of those harbinger .

This was ifharriethad garner more making love across the plug-in ( likemarriage storyandlittle womendid ) , then she ’d have a in force shooter at get out off an swage .

But like the other non - Zellweger nominee , she ’s really just hop for something unbelievable to bechance on Oscar Sunday .

This was best actress is zellweger ’s to drop off .
