Oscars 2020: Predicting All The Nominees

3. Actress In A Leading Role

Renee Zellwegger Judy
BBC Films

Scarlett Johansson and probable winner Renee Zellweger are the obvious locks here, while Charlize Theron is also a dead-cert, leaving two slots up in the air.

They will be fought out between Awkwafina (The Farewell), Cynthia Erivo (Harriet) and Lupita Nyong'o (Us), and given Awkwafina's recent Golden Globe win and the generally lukewarm reception to Harriet as a whole, we'll guess they do and don't make it in respectively.

The campaign for Lupita Nyong'o has been extremely passionate this season, so she'll surely take #5.

Nominees:

Scarlett Johansson (Marriage Story)

Lupita Nyong'o (Us)

Saoirse Ronan (Little Women)

Charlize Theron (Bombshell)

Renee Zellweger (Judy)
