Awards season is now well underway, with The Brutalist and Emilia Perez the big winners at the Golden Globes earlier this month.
All eyes are now on the BAFTA Film Awards in February, with the shortlists released this week and the ceremony scheduled for Sunday, February 16.
Meanhile the Oscars, the world’s most prestigious film awards, will be held on Sunday, March 2, with the nominees announced on Thursday, January 23. They had originally been planned for Friday, January 17, but were delayed due to the LA fires.
Here are the bookies’ favourites for the Best Actress Oscar when it is presented at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles.
9. Saoirse Ronan
Perennial nominee (she's been nominated four times without winning) Saoirse Ronan looks like she'll be left waiting for at least another year for her Oscar. She has odds of 14/1 to win for her role in Hebrides-set addiction drama 'The Outrun'. | Getty Images for The Gotham Film
10. Tilda Swinton
Pedro Almodóvar's debut English-language full-length film 'The Room Next Door' seems unlikely to feature anywhere else in the shortlists, but Tilda Swinton is an outside shot to bag a Best Actress nod, with odds of 16/1. | Los Angeles Times via Getty Imag
11. Amy Adams
Next up, with odds of 18/1, is Amy Adams. In 'Nightbitch' she has plenty to get her acting teeth into, as she transforms into a dog, complete with tail. | Getty Images
12. Kate Winslet
Completing our list is former Oscar winner Kate Winslet, with odds of 25/1 for her role in 'Lee'. She plays a real-life photojournalist who risked life and limb to get world-changing pictures of warzones. | AFP via Getty Images
