Who Will Win Outstanding Supporting Actor at the Logie Awards 2024?

Are you a diehard fan of award shows?

The Logie Awards, which is officially also known as the TV Week Logie Awards, is a yearly gathering that celebrates Australian television. This event is organized and sponsored by the magazine TV Week and is currently in its 62nd year.

The awards are presented across 20 categories, and the winners are determined by both public and industry votes. It is, in essence, Australia’s answer to the Emmys, and the first ceremony was held back in 1959, making it an iconic and historic event!

In 2024, it seems that the majority of the supporting actors appeared in the hit show ‘Boy Swallows Universe’. So, who is likely to win the outstanding supporting actor title?

1xBet has odds of 2.5, which predict a 40% chance that Lee Tiger Halley will be the recipient of the Outstanding Supporting Actor at the Logie Awards 2024. Discover the current Odds now HERE.

Previous Winners of the Logie Awards

It is somewhat easy to presume that because it isn’t the official Emmys or the Academy Awards, that this show is not as important. However, the Logie Awards have, over the years, celebrated the work of many famous personalities from Australian television, including Graham Kennedy, who is referred to as the king of Australian television, Bert Newton and even singer Kylie Minogue. She won a Golden Logie in 1988, making her the youngest person to receive one at the age of 19. So, it has helped launch the careers of some very famous and talented people.

In 2024, the nominees include:

Lee Tiger Halley – Boy Swallows Universe

Guy Pearce – The Clearing Wins

Travis Fimmel – Boy Swallows Universe

Bryan Brown – Boy Swallows Universe

Jay Ryan – Scrublands

Success of The Show and The Outstanding Supporting Actor Award

As mentioned at the beginning, the show ‘Boy Swallows Universe’ seems to be stealing a lot of the heat in this category. Indeed, this show received an average of 85% approval on Rotten Tomatoes and was seen to have four million views around the globe, it was also the fifth most-watched show in the world in January 2024.

Historically, there has been a link between the Logie Awards and the success of the shows the nominees have starred in, especially when it comes to awards relating to actors and actresses who took part.  Does this mean that Boy Swallows Universe is set to win? Potentially! Of course, The Clearing Winds is not to be overlooked and received an average of three out of five stars from reviewers online. The four-episode series Scrublands also received some very high praise, with the Guardian newspaper stating it was a ‘rock solid addition to the rural noir genre’ and made those who watch it feel, at times, on the edge of their seats, right up until the explosive finale. So, all three of these shows have gotten great reviews; which one of the actors is likely to win? It might be best to watch them and decide for yourself!

If you believe that Jay Ryan will take the coveted Outstanding Supporting Actor Award for Scrublands, you could win $1300 by betting $100 at 1xBet if he does.
