Colin Farrell could receive his first Oscar nod this year as bookies include him among the early favourites to be nominated in the Best Actor category.
The Dublin born actor starred in The Banshees of Inisherin this year alongside Brendan Gleeson, Kerry Condon and Barry Keoghan. The film saw Colin play Padraic, who is left devastated when his buddy Colm (Gleeson) puts an end to their lifelong friendship as they find themselves on the opposite sides of the Irish Civil War.
Colin is among the front runners for the Best Actor gong at odds of 8/1 for his role in dark comedy drama, according to Ladbrokes. Farrell faces fierce competition in the category with Brendan Fraser the current favourite at 6/5 for his performance in The Whale, followed by Austin Butler at 5/2 for Elvis, and Hugh Jackman at 7/1 for The Son.
