Who is Most Likely to Win Best Supporting Actress?
Zoe Saldana is the current favorite to win Best Supporting Actress at the 2025 Oscars. Since the world premiere of Emilia Perez, the 46-year-old actress has been tipped to win the statuette as she plays underappreciated lawyer Rita in the critically acclaimed musical.
The Hollywood Reporter claims Saldana offers a “masterful performance” alongside her talented co-stars.
Also, Jericho Tadeo from Movieweb praised the actress, stating she delivers “a career-best performance” and that it is “arguably her most all-encompassing role yet, and she more than rises to the occasion.”
Danielle Deadwyler slipped into the role of the scene-stealing Berniece in The Piano Lesson, providing an electrifying performance that will likely earn her a Best Supporting Actress nomination, if not the award.
According to Robert Daniels from Screen International, “Deadwyler is the heart and soul of the film whose every inch is deeply felt.”
Also, the Wall Street Journal’s Kyle Smith believes Deadwyler will finally receive the award she deserves, writing, “Danielle Deadwyler, who was shockingly left off the Oscar shortlist when she starred in Till, is magnetic.”
Jodie Comer isn’t short of a prestigious award, having won a Tony, BAFTA, Primetime Emmy, and the Laurence Olivier Award throughout her career.
The talented British actress continued to wow in The Bikeriders, and her performance could put her in the running for a Best Supporting Actress nomination and win.
Deborah Ross from The Spectator praised her performance, writing, “The film stars Tom Hardy, Austin Butler, and Jodie Comer, who manages to wipe the floor with them. You may wish to look away from the violence, but you won’t wish to look away from her.”
Also, the London Evening Standard’s Nick Howells wrote, “Jodie Comer roars into her first Great American film role. And in his finest effort yet, Mud director Jeff Nichols has given her quite the machine to ride on.”
