What the expert says...
Colman Domingo leads the way in the betting market to win the Best Actor award
Nominees for next year's Oscars will not be announced until January 2025 but it looks likely that Sing Sing will have a big night at the ceremony with Colman Domingo favourite for Best Actor.
Domingo stars as John "Divine G" Whitfield in Sing Sing which premiered at the 2023 Toronto Film Festival to rave reviews with critics praising his performance.
Daniel Craig is a big name that features in the betting market to win Best Actor with more of a clearer picture of the big categories set to be known towards the end of the year.
| Oscars 2025 Best Actor | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Colman Domingo - Sing Sing | 2/1 | 33.3% |
| Daniel Craig - Queer | 7/2 | 22.2% |
| Ralph Fiennes - Conclave | 4/1 | 20.0% |
| Jesse Eisenberg - A Real Pain | 9/2 | 18.2% |
| Sebastian Stan - The Apprentice | 11/1 | 8.3% |
2025 Academy Awards will take place in March next year
The 97th Academy Awards are set to take place on Sunday, March 2 at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood.
That date is a week earlier from this year's event which took place on March 10 just a few months ago with an earlier start time of 7pm ET too.
We do not know who will host the event as of yet with the host usually announced around November or December but Jimmy Kimmel could well return for the 5th time.
