, Mark Rylance, Jeremy Strong, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Frank Langella, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, John Carroll Lynch, Michael Keaton and Kelvin Harrison, Jr. — the historical drama has been at the top of minds of Oscar prospects for months. With an upcoming presidential election and an impending SCOTUS battle on the horizon, it could be one of the rare cases in which a film’s awards chances could tie closely to the mood of the country.
One of the critical elements to credit “Chicago 7’s” success is the dedication and inventiveness of its actors. The SAG awards nominating committee looks likely to check this off for the coveted cast ensemble category when filling out their ballots. With such a broad cast of their colleagues across film and television, it could be one of the “no-brainers” coming. One of the daunting questions is whether it can score a few acting nominations, and where its cast should campaign.
The most accessible road for acting nominations may lie within Cohen’s Abbie Hoffman and Rylance’s William Kunstler. Cohen, once nominated for adapted screenplay for “Borat,” and on the cusp of that year’s best actor race, checks all the boxes for an acting nominee. He has “the scene” that would play in his Oscar clip, the most memorable line of the film and acts as scene-stealing comic relief in a movie that’s handling grave subject matter.
Movie theaters won’t even exist by the time the Oscars happens.
