97th Oscars. Predictions for the Films of 2024 CEREMONY: March 2, 2025
For prediction, discussion, entertainment purposes only discuss on the blog
April Foolish Predictions
Tier 1 - Predictions | ||||
Maria Bakalova Brilliant casting, right? Bakalova plays Ivana Trump. If the movie goes over well, watch out... (that's a big "if" though) |
Moses Ingram Her star is rising and we believe she has a key role here, disrupting the family dynamic in the bunker after the titular event. |
Emily Watson Winning raves as a cruel nun but she might need attention for Cillian Murphy's leading role. (See Best Actor) |
Joan Chen Winning raves as an underappreciated mom in this Sundance coming-of-age hit and it's easy to imagine a 'career reward' narrative emerging. But it's always hard to know how well Sundance hits will go over in the larger world.
|
Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor We believe she's playing the grandmother to the protagonist. But given that the bulk of the narrative is a boys reform school, we imagine it's a small role. |
Tier 2 - Or Maybe It'll Be... | ||||
Danielle Deadwyler Danielle Brooks played this on Broadway but Danielle takes over for the movie. Wilson plays always have meaty roles. |
Saoirse Ronan We suspect Blitz is an ensemble film even if Ronan is its biggest star. What's her role like? Can she become a double nominee this season? |
Julianne Moore Sounds like a lead role (in a film about three women) but since what little we know of the story sounds like it turns on Swinton who knows? And will it be ready in time? |
Nathalie Emmanuel Sounds like a leading role - a woman torn between her father and her lover's visions of the new world. But, on the other hand, nobody really knows what this will be. |
Diane Kruger Let's imagine for a moment that Oscar voters stopped rejecting horror-tinged work. A potentially thrilling triple role for Kruger! |
Tier 3 - Way Too Early To Rule Anything Out... | ||||
Tilda Swinton She plays the wife and mother in the bunker but we'll assume screen husband Michael Shannon and screen son George Mackay are the focal points. |
Jennifer Grey If the film goes over big the ensemble could reap the rewards. |
Michele Austin It's always hard to know anything about Mike Leigh movies before they arrive but we're guessing she has a large role. |
Connie Nielsen We're dreaming that Ridley Scott doesn't shove her to the side as the mother of the protagonist (and one of only two returning actors from the original) but we'll see. |
Catherine O'Hara She's much more beloved in the industry than she once was. It's fun to imagine they'll appreciate her reprisal of one of her most indelible comic creations |
Other Female Leads This Year | ||||
Who will stand out in 2024 casts? Which leads will be demoted to supporting? So many questions
