Kodi Smit McPhee has the second shortest odds of winning the 2022 Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for his role as Peter Gordon in Jane Campion's western film The Power of the Dog. The payout would be $23 for every $10 bet.
Best Supporting Actor Odds Oscar 2022
Kodi Smit McPhee +230
Ciaran Hinds +1400
Jonathan Kimble Simmons +3500
Troy Kotsur -450
Jesse Plemons +3000
Troy Kotsur was the favorite at -450, which is nearly a "lock".
Power of the Dog is about a domineering rancher who responds with mocking cruelty when his brother brings home a new wife and her son, played by Smit McPhee, until the unexpected comes to pass.
McPhee says he learned quite a bit from playing the young boy in the co-favorite to win this year's Oscar for "Best Film".
“There are a lot of (his) traits that are parallel to mine, whether it’s his physicality or the things that he’s interested in,” Smit-McPhee says during a Zoom interview. “He’s OK with being isolated. (He has) a very rooted, grounded pride and confidence and an unwavering spirit in the face of adversity.”
