The lensers in contention for the 2021 Best Cinematography Oscar are: Sean Bobbitt (“Judas and the Black Messiah”), Erik Messerschmidt (“Mank”), Dariusz Wolski (“News of the World”), Joshua James Richards (“Nomadland”) and Phedon Papamichael (“The Trial of the Chicago 7.” Our odds currently show that “Nomadland” (16/5) will be the victor, followed in order by “Mank” (37/10), “News of the World” (9/2), “Judas and the Black Messiah” (9/2), and “The Trial of the Chicago 7” (9/2).
Four of this year’s five nominated cinematographers are Oscar newcomers. Papamichael stands alone as the only veteran. He was previously nominated for his work in “Nebraska” (2014) but lost to Emmanuel Lubezki (“Gravity”). A similar situation occurred in 2017, when Rodrigo Prieto (“Silence”) was the only one in his lineup who had ever been nominated before.
This could be the third time in five years that a first-time Best Cinematography nominee prevails, after 2017 and 2019.
Predict the 2021 Oscar winners through April 25
