- The 80th Golden Globes Awards Begin This Evening At 8 PM On NBC
- The 2023 Golden Globes Will Be Hosted By Jerrod Carmichael
The Whale’s Brendan Fraser was leading the Golden Globes odds for best actor in a drama film, but in the past few weeks since lines debuted, he’s been surpassed by Austin Butler, who played the titular role in 2022’s Elvis.
Two weeks ago, Fraser appeared to be the favorite to win the Golden Globe for best actor with a -135 moneyline. On the day of the ceremony, Butler has become a massive favorite and is now 500 points ahead of Fraser in the moneyline odds to win.
Best Actor: Drama
- Austin Butler – Elvis Presley -400
- Brendan Fraser – The Whale +300
- Bill Nighy – Living +1200
- Jeremy Pope – The Inspection +2000
- Hugh Jackman – The Son +2200
The initial lines at Golden Globes betting sites are based on the calculations of the oddsmakers using their own unique formula. After the betting lines are posted, the moneyline odds are impacted by the number of wagers that are placed on each outcome.
Simply stated, entertainment bettors must have laid plenty of action on Austin Butler’s odds in order to create such a sudden and massive chasm between him and Fraser, who still appears to be a lock to win the Academy Award for best actor.
One element that we always look out for when betting on any awards show at legal entertainment sportsbooks is the potential for a single film to sweep the evening.
Everything Everywhere All At Once is a film that has a legitimate chance of sweeping the 2023 Golden Globes and includes underdog winners that allow for high profit margins.
Michelle Yeoh’s -400 odds of winning the Golden Globe for best actress in a comedy or musical places her 600 points ahead of Margo Robbie of Babylon.
