the list.
Rami Malek is an extremely talented actor who can play a wide variety of characters
with stellar performances.
His latest role as the deceased singer Freddie Mercury gained him a lot of critical acclaims,
including Queen band members commending his eerily accurate portrayal of Mercury.
The film generally received favorable reviews, Malek was the central attraction of the film
and is likely going to receive an Oscar nomination.
All hail the king!
Chadwick Boseman’s role as King T’Challa in Marvel’s Black Panther was a huge success
and became the 9th highest grossing film of all time.
Boseman’s strong performance was critically lauded and gives him a fair shot at an Oscar
nomination.
Boseman also reprised the role of Black Panther in Avengers: Infinity War.
Bradley Cooper is one-half of the lead roles
in this third remake of the original 1937 film of the same name.
Cooper plays a seasoned musician who falls in love with a young, talented singer.
With his help, his younger partner’s career starts to take off as well.
While their professional lives are getting better by the day, their relationship is hounded
by personal demons.
The movie was a critical success, and both Cooper and Lady Gaga were praised for their
fantastic performances.
Many sites have gone on to place their bet on Bradley Cooper for the best actor.
If Cooper is nominated, this will be his fifth Oscar nomination.
Christian Bale is known for his insane transformations
for his roles in various movies.
In Vice, Bale portrays the true story of Dick Cheney who is often considered the most powerful
Vice President in the history of the United States.
Bale’s successful transformation into a plump and aging late 50’s Cheney is remarkable
and awe-inspiring.
Despite the fact that the film hasn't even seen release, many are already contemplating
the success that Bale will achieve for this role.
We believe so too, based on Bale’s previous performances.
Bale already has two nominations and an Oscar win under his belt.
Based on a true story, First Man is a serious
and tense biopic of Neil Armstrong, the first man to walk on the moon.
Spanning between his decision to take flight, the training and the events that came after,
Gosling does justice to the role and shows the struggle, tough decisions and sacrifices
that were made to complete the most difficult journey in human history.
The film was a huge success, and we believe 2 time Oscar nominee Gosling will get a nomination
for this role at the 2019 Oscars.
