I’ve finished another round of research, this time for the 87th Academy Awards (2014-2015 Season), and will be rolling out the results one category per day over the next few weeks.
To get us started, here are today’s rankings for the 87th Lead Actress race, with previous ranking shown in parenthesis after each entry.
My last set of predictions for this category only listed 8 contenders, so we’re starting to see a significant number of new confirmations rumors on casting. I’ve also included a few films where the parts sound like they could be great, but we’re still waiting to find out who might play them.
