Oscar Predictions: 10 Potential Best Actor Candidates for 2016

10. Michael Fassbender

If the call had to be made right now as to who would take home the Best Actor Oscar in next year’s ceremony, Michael Fassbender would be the surest bet around. This year, the man is putting up two worthwhile performances, both of which are incredibly distinct from one another. First, his lead in Steve Jobs is being directed by Danny Boyle from a script written by Aaron Sorkin. That pedigree alone will get Fassbender nominated unless he totally blows it (which he hasn’t done yet). If that’s not good enough, Fassbender and Marion Cotillard are set to tackle the Bard’s best play in the adaption of Macbeth, which promises to be a haunting tour de force. Fassbender may accidentally find himself with two chances to take home the win.
