You know? We got a history,” Spike Lee, who directed Berry in her breakout performance in “Jungle Fever,” said in a joint interview with Berry. So I’m not going to be telling you no bulls. But it seems likely she’ll certainly have some supporters. (Washington won that year for “Training Day” according to the odds, Smith has the advantage this time around.)īerry’s a longer shot in the Best Director category, ranking 36th in the combined odds. But if a nomination does materialize it could find Berry back at the Oscars alongside both Denzel Washington and Will Smith, both of whom faced off in the 2002 Best Actor race and are widely expected to compete with each other again in 2022. At the moment, Berry sits in the back half of the top-20 according to the Gold Derby Best Actress predictions odds. The Oscars 2022 Best Actress race remains loaded, with numerous other former winners and nominees (including Frances McDormand, Jennifer Lawrence, Jessica Chastain, Olivia Colman, and Lady Gaga, among many others) vying for the five open slots. “Or you had to wait until you were old enough to play a grandma, and then you could have another bite at the apple, right? I mean, I couldn’t think that I’d be playing an MMA fighter at 54 years old. “It used to be when you were 40 your career was done, and I mean really done,” Berry said to EW. But when you’re at a certain stage in life it becomes something more impactful and meaningful, right?” When you’re young we all get chances, they’re a dime a dozen. “I couldn’t get it out of my mind, so I thought, is it possible that this could be reimagined for someone like me?
