And it really looks more likely tonight, after Joaquin Phoenix won the Best Actor Golden Globe for his work as Arthur Fleck in Todd Phillips’ Joker.
Phoenix previous won the Golden Globe for his performance as Johnny Cash in the biopic Walk the Line.
(Unlike the Globes, which divide the nominees into two categories, there’s just one Best Actor award at the Oscars.) This year’s Academy Award nominees will be announced on January 13.
It would be shocking if Phoenix wasn’t at least nominated — but can he win?
