Going back to 2007, when Javier Bardem, Heath Ledger, and Christoph Waltz overwhelmed their Best Supporting Actor fields as instantly iconic villains, this category has really only been undecided before Oscar night twice in the last fifteen years. In fact, it has been quite rare in this era for Best Supporting Actor to have any shred of doubt left at the very end. ![]() But if there’s a split that day, the Best Supporting Actor field will be something it hasn’t been in six years on Oscar night – undecided at the wire.

Somewhere in between is Best Supporting Actor, although that will change on March 13th if either Troy Kotsur (“ CODA“) or Kodi Smit-McPhee (“ The Power Of The Dog“) wins at both the Critics Choice Awards and BAFTA that day.
