Tom Hanks in A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood (Sony/Columbia) Photo: Lacey Terrell Still up in the air as to whether Tom Hanks or Matthew Rhys is the lead (or co-leads) of A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood but since the film is based on the Esquire piece by Tom Junod (whom Rhys plays) I’m going to go with Hanks …

Like with Supporting Actress, category placement could swing a lot of ways with any number of films and performances that could be in contention this year. Are Christian Bale and Matt Damon co-leads in Ford v Ferrari? Probably, but I’m going to hedge my bets and have them in here, too. The Irishman, from Martin Scorsese and Netflix, is going …

Tri-Star Pictures has revealed the first look at two-Academy Award winner Tom Hanks as Fred Rogers in Marielle Heller’s Untitled Mr. Rogers/ Tom Hanks Project, a timely story of kindness triumphing over cynicism, based on the true story of a real-life friendship between Fred Rogers and journalist Tom Junod (played by Emmy winner Matthew Rhys), who is assigned a profile of …

Gary Oldman (Darkest Hour) is an unmovable force in Best Actor as he notches another month at the top of the chart.

After big Gotham Award wins for Call Me By Your Name, Lady Bird and Get Out and Independent Spirit Awards nominations for …

The Post, Steven Spielberg’s timely journalism drama about the Washington Post picking up from The New York Times’ posting of The Pentagon Papers, has won the first major prize of awards season, the National Board of Review’s Best Film. Not just that, it also nabbed Best Actor and Best Actress wins for Tom Hanks and Meryl Streep. Each Oscar-winning stars …

Screeners. There probably isn’t an awards body, industry or otherwise, that depends on in-hand screeners for its nominations than the Screen Actors Guild. It’s why we often get random selections that don’t pan out as Oscar nominations. Since the SAG nominees are chosen but a randomly selected nomination committee of about 2100 members (from a pool of nearly 200,000) that …

The Golden Globes feel more difficult to predict this year than most. With category placements for films like Three Billboards in Drama, Get Out in Comedy and Beatriz at Dinner (which is appealing its Drama ruling) the line of what defines a film’s genre keeps getting muddier each year. The split of the top categories made more sense in the …
