Update: Within an hour of publishing this latest dispatch, Universal Pictures announced “She Said” star Carey Mulligan will be campaigned in the Best Supporting Actress category. The race has been thrown off its axis once again! The Best Supporting Actress race was thrown off its axis once Michelle Williams left it in favor of the Best Actress category for "The Fabelmans." Now, several other contenders are jockeying for frontrunner status.Related

7 New Netflix Shows in October 2022 -- and the Best Reasons to Watch Oscars 2023: Best Documentary Feature Predictions The newest batch of Best Supporting Actress candidates mostly come from "She Said," which had its world premiere at the recent New York Film Festival. The film, which dramatizes the 2017 New York Times investigation of disgraced movie producer Harvey Weinstein, spotlights many of the victims' stories. The most viable contender would be Samantha Morton, who delivers a memorable scene expressing to the reporters what an enraging experience it was to work for the abusive mogul. The actress will be pulling double duty on the campaign trail as she also has a pivotal role in "The Whale." Other "She Said" prospects include Jennifer Ehle, heartrending as a source with her own Harvey horror story delivered from the hospital, and Patricia Clarkson as the consummate newspaper editor. Even Ashley Judd, the only Weinstein survivor to appear as herself in the film, could factor in as a long shot nominee - though half of her screentime comes from archival footage of interviews, and her speech at the Women's March. Meanwhile, there is one guarantee for this category, which is that at least one of the women from "Women Talking" will make the cut. In the film, about a group of Mennonite women choosing whether to escape or fight their abusive male counterparts, almost every actress has an awards-friendly moment. Given the high likelihood star Rooney Mara will campaign for Best Actress, the debate has become whether Jessie Buckley or Claire Foy is the best embodiment of the film's appeal. Currently, Buckley - a surprise nominee for "The Lost Daughter" last year - has the edge, while Foy, who was snubbed by the Academy in 2019 for her work in "First Man," remains in the contention. It's not unthinkable that both could crack the category. “TÁR” Focus Features However, there are at least five films that have two or more deserving contenders for Best Supporting Actress. In addition to the two aforementioned films, "TÁR" boasts exciting, complex performances from Nina Hoss, Noémie Merlant, and newcomer Sophie Kauer, who generated a lot of buzz among attendees at a recent Academy screening for the film. And then there's "The Woman King," which has a literal army of amazing actresses. Thuso Mbedu is currently pegged as the most likely nominee, given that her character's perspective dominates the movie, and she holds her own opposite Best Actress contender Viola Davis, but it could just as easily go to effortless scene-stealer Lashana Lynch. Finally, as with many categories this awards season, all roads lead back to the triumphant March release "Everything Everywhere All at Once," which has Stephanie Hsu fitting the promising young actress archetype while Jamie Lee Curtis fits the bill for a long overdue contender. Add into that mix Kerry Condon ("The Banshees of Inisherin"), Dolly De Leon ("Triangle of Sadness"), Janelle Monáe ("Glass Onion"), and Gabrielle Union ("The Inspection") - all commendable prospective first-time Oscar nominees - and we have one of the most unpredictable Best Supporting Actress races yet…and we haven't even seen Angela Bassett in "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever" or Jean Smart in "Babylon" yet. Stay tuned. Contenders are listed in alphabetical order, below. No actor will be deemed a frontrunner until we have seen the film. Frontrunners:Jessie Buckley ("Women Talking")
