Kevin Jacobsen joins Sophia and Nick for an in-depth discussion of the two lead acting categories. In Best Actor, will Denzel’s Macbeth rise to dethrone Will Smith’s King Richard? Or can Benedict Cumberbatch manifest an Oscar win by lassoing his way to the top? Then in Best Actress, listen to them debate if the baity biopic performances in Jessica Chastain’s Tammy Faye or Nicole Kidman’s Lucille Ball could once again bring home the gold (59:27).
As always with the acting categories, listen for their write-in votes, who they think should win, and who they think will win.
