2013 Oscar Predictions: Best Supporting Actress

"Les Miserables."
Indiewire will provide regular updates of our predictions for the 85th Academy Awards through February 24th, when the winners are announced.

Here's our take on best supporting actress, which Anne Hathaway has already essentially won. Her closest competitor is definitely Sally Field, but are they really going to give Sally Field a THIRD Oscar on her third nomination? No. They really like her, but not that much (especially since her "Lincoln" co-workers Day-Lewis and Spielberg could both be getting their third best actor and best director statues, respectively).

Nominees and predictions below. Check out all predictions in all the categories here, and this list of all the Oscar-nominated films available ON DEMAND right now.

The nominees:
Amy Adams in "The Master"
Sally Field in "Lincoln"
Anne Hathaway in "Les Misérables"
Helen Hunt in "The Sessions"
Jacki Weaver in "Silver Linings Playbook"

Will win: Anne Hathaway
Could win: Sally Field
Should win: Amy Adams

    Les Mis was an amazing film. I love Anne Hathaway, she one of my favorite actresses in Holly Wood. Anne was far better than Amy when is comes down to performances. However, this Oscar should not go for her because Sally Flied did a better performance in Lincoln. Anne would be second place for me or my silver medal.

  • Pippo | Wed Feb 06 16:37:28 EST 2013Reply

    Seriously, I can understand the Hathaway hate and that's it. But there's no way Adams in The Master is better than her. Adams barely do anything, there. The movie is simply phenomenal, but is not an Adams' show. So goes for Field, except for the Tommy Lee Jones ball scene. But could I call that an Oscar worthy performance? Not. No way guys, that Oscar is Hathaway's. All the «should» it's just given by your love for The Master or your hate for Les Miserables. I hated Les Miserables but loved Anne, worshiped The Master but not impressed by Adams.

  • HIMSELF | Tue Feb 05 14:28:42 EST 2013Reply

    Anne Hathaway was good as Fantine but not oscar-worthing. However I am almost sure she will get it, although Amy Adams was clearly better. My prediction is that Anne will win, cause of her campaign, and the marvellous Amy Adams will lose...AGAIN. Sally Field wont get an oscar in her third nomination as she has won two oscars for her previous 2 nom.

  • Film Fan | Fri Feb 08 01:50:02 EST 2013

    It is not all in the campaign. Yes it helps but if Anne wins it is because she did an amazing job. Amy Adams was good but not as much compared to her other roles. She should have won for doubt a few years ago.

  • Chris | Sun Feb 03 22:15:09 EST 2013Reply

    I think Anne Hathaway should win, but I'm almost certain she will not.

    So my prediction:
    Will win: Amy Adams or Sally Field
    Should win: Anne Hathaway

  • Michael | Sun Feb 03 17:06:58 EST 2013Reply

    LOL @ the pretentious people pretending The Master had any merit, and Amy Adams did anything of note, let alone better than Anne and Sally.

  • I agree | Sun Feb 03 13:50:36 EST 2013Reply

    I just watched The Master yesterday and it was incredible. I wish it was nominated instead of Django Unchained (which to me seemed like unfinished movie and I frankly agree with Spike Lee). I think in each acting category Phoenix, Hoffman, and Adams tops everyone easily.

  • Sam | Sun Feb 03 12:50:48 EST 2013Reply

    Anne Hathaway SHOULD NOT WIN. She is a Amateur girl in TRAINING. She doesn't even know the meaning of acting an what it incorporates.

  • ^_^ | Sun Feb 03 02:32:59 EST 2013Reply

    for me...
    will win: HATHAWAY
    could win : ADAMS or FIELD
    should win : HATHAWAY
    should be on the list : MAGGIE SMITH ( marigold hotel ) replacing WEAVER (SLP)

  • Gadhafy | Fri Feb 01 12:05:13 EST 2013Reply

    Are you "D"ucking HIGH? It's sad that Amy Adams hasn't won an oscar yet, but this is NOT her year. The heartwrenching performance of I dreamed a dream that was given to us from Anne, is nothing but perfection, and will never be topped by any other performance of the same role on a motion picture. THIS is her moment. THIS is her brilliance. THIS is HER award. So stop it with your "She doesn't deserve it" crap. Catwoman, yes, catwoman will take it home, because she DOES deserve it. THE end.

  • Are you serious? | Sat Feb 02 22:53:51 EST 2013

    She does deserve it. But not for her performance. It's because if she doesn't win she won't shut up afterwards.

  • Cindy | Fri Feb 01 00:03:00 EST 2013Reply

    Anne Hathaway is a amateur girl in training who still has a lot of work to do before winning an Oscar. HOW in the world did she ever got nominated for Les Mis. This makes me believe that acting is no longer taken seriously. Amy Adams, I only hope that voters choose you for best supporting actress.

  • Oscar Award Winner Anne Hathaway | Thu Jan 31 17:37:35 EST 2013Reply

    I deserved it ...

  • claudia | Wed Jan 30 17:08:10 EST 2013Reply

    Anne Hathaway was awful., the only thing that held that terrible adaption of Les Miserables was Hugh Jackman and that says a lot. Don't get me wrong, i enjoyed Anne in the princess diaries when i was 13, she should stick to that unfortunately. Oh and this argument over Natalie portman, black swan was an incredible performance, but you cannot be stupid and think the academy only looks at this one performance, they look at your entire body of films, natalie portman is a sensational actress and there were other movies she deserved the award for. Take Heath Ledger for an example, realistically the performance of his career was in Brokeback Mountain, he should have won for that, but after he died he won for The Dark Knight. He died, think seriously why they would give him the award. Amy Adams is an outstanding character actress, she or Sally Field should win. Anne Hathaway , it is embarrassing an appalling you are receiving credit for this terrible portrayal and acting performance. Anne Hathaway along with Jennifer Lawrence nomination makes me loose all faith in acting and awards. It's almost upsetting.

  • Marc | Sat Feb 02 19:16:29 EST 2013

    "Anne Hathaway along with Jennifer Lawrence nomination makes me loose all faith in acting and awards. It's almost upsetting."

    Exactly! I thought I was the only one who felt this way. How right you are!

  • Tanner | Tue Jan 29 18:09:37 EST 2013Reply

    Anne deserves to win hands down! It is her time and she has been in two incredible movies this past year, The Dark Knight Rises and Les Miserables BOTH that are incredible and have made a statement in movie history. Don't get me wrong I like Amy Adams, but she's been nominated 4 times and still no win...thats something to be said she's a good actor, just that their are better perfomances. Amy's time will come soon and I mean very soon it's just that she has to find that one role where she is absolutley brilliant in, it will come very shortly just, not, this year.

  • JJ | Tue Feb 05 13:27:05 EST 2013

    I agree. Amy Adams is scheduled to play Janis Joplin and for me that sounds like oscar role even though we haven't seen it yet....

  • Lizzie | Wed Jan 23 23:35:50 EST 2013Reply

    Can't believe Anne Hathaway is going to take home an Oscar. In everything she does you are constantly aware that Hathaway is 'ACTING' and is making acting choices instead of just being the character. I have seen Les Mis and I don't get what the fuss is all about - she was good. That's it. She wasn't believable as Fantine. I'm hoping her obvious anticipation and annoying Globes appearance will turn some Academy voters off.

  • Tim | Thu Jan 24 09:08:19 EST 2013

    Agree. I thought she was good but what she did at the Globes was bad. Interrupting the director or whoever and she already got her chance to speak. Her fake modesty is annoying.

  • Juana la ranchera | Sun Jan 20 22:40:43 EST 2013Reply

    I agree about the should win, Amy Adams ftw. However, as you said, Anne has it in the back. It's not like she doesn't deserve it, but I just hate when the most popular actress wins. (Looking at you, Natalie P)

  • Tim | Thu Jan 24 09:10:07 EST 2013

    Anne Hatheway is pulling the Natalie Portman. Constant PR campaiging for her Oscar. Its pathetic and lame. Remember Natalie Portman did this two years ago and it annoyed everyone?
    Yes I agree Annette Bening was much better.

  • Lizzie | Wed Jan 23 23:31:37 EST 2013

    @DD. - Annette Bening deserved it over Portman.

  • William | Mon Jan 21 19:03:09 EST 2013

    Are you high! Natalie Portman was so brilliant in black swan. She won almost every award there was that year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • DD. | Mon Jan 21 04:00:28 EST 2013

    Lol, who deserved it over Portman? and please don't say Jennifer Lawrence...

  • riel | Sat Jan 19 23:17:12 EST 2013Reply

    I don't get how people can say Anne shouldn't win. Have you watched the film??????!!!!

  • Seraphine Flores | Thu Jan 31 10:23:58 EST 2013

    Yes. And I was so blown out by her exaggerated performance, she numbed me to the point, that I couldn't wait for her to get off the screen. And I'm a big fan of Anne Hathaway.....I was very disappointed.

  • Krystle Hrbacek | Thu Jan 17 04:14:45 EST 2013Reply

    I voted Anne Hathaway at frinzee.com because she is so amazing!, The website frinzee is so cool and fun. You can predict, battle and win.

  • Adventurer | Thu Jan 17 19:55:46 EST 2013

    got frinzee points but not enough to reach to top rankings. better be careful in casting votes.

  • CJ | Wed Jan 16 00:47:12 EST 2013Reply

    Okay people: saying "Anne Hathaway doesn't deserve it" doesn't mean anything! GIVE IT UP!! She is going to win, it is no longer a race.
    And she totally deserves to win! One of the most wonderful performances I have ever seen!

    And also I'm very confused with the "should win" category. I dont think you people at indiewire can tell us that. Just my thoughts. Id prefer predictions, minus the opinion.

  • Will | Tue Jan 15 23:10:08 EST 2013Reply

    Sally Field was unsuccessfully nominated for Best Supporting Actress 1994 for "Forrest Gump."

  • Mano | Tue Jan 15 19:55:12 EST 2013Reply

    The best supporting actress award will be given to Sally Field in Lincoln as wife of Lincoln who
    showed us wonderful image and dresses, very attractive personality of Mrs. Lincoln who talked impressively with American people, excellent dialogues, best historical image ofcourse. Good LUCK to Sally Field for an Oscar 2013 for Mrs. Lincoln.

  • Hannah | Tue Jan 15 15:18:09 EST 2013Reply

  • Ignatius Albert | Tue Jan 15 12:29:19 EST 2013Reply

    No one would have predicted a nomination for Jacki Weaver. She was seen as a very long shot, and Weaver herself admitted to being surprised upon hearing her nomination. No disrespect to her, but I think she somewhat rides on the general success of Silver Linings Playbook and her fellow cast members (Cooper, Lawrence & De Niro).
    Nonetheless, with her getting a nod, SLP becomes the first movie since Reds in 1981 to be nominated in all 4 acting categories. A pretty memorable achievement.
    At this moment, Anne Hathaway should win it. I think only Sally Field in Lincoln can stop her seemingly unstoppable force now. It will be a major upset if she Hathaway does not win the Oscar.

  • onelove | Mon Jan 14 14:48:37 EST 2013Reply

    Anne Hathaway does not deserve to win best supporting actress... First of all, look at the list of great supporting roles such as Helen Hunt and Sally Field which by all standards are better actresses and have perfect execution on their performances rather than Anne Hathaway... People you can not give an award to Anne Hathaway because you favor her over the others.... I hope the Academy Awards choose the best either Hunt or Field and not pick that "Some What Good" amateur girl Anne Hathaway...

  • Hebe | Mon Jan 14 06:27:36 EST 2013Reply

    1st Anne Hathaway,
    2nd Amy Adams,
    3rd Sally Field,
    4th Helen Hunt,
    5th Jacki Weaver

  • Cinema | Sat Jan 12 22:49:27 EST 2013Reply

    I would bet all kinds of money on the fact Hathaway will win this. She is a force at this point and with all the nominations and wins she is picking up along with the great campaign she is running, this is all her. It is like years past with Plummer, Waltz and Octavia Spencer just a total lock.

  • Kary | Fri Jan 11 11:19:14 EST 2013Reply

    sad because Nicole didn't get the nomination... I think Amy Adams is a good actress but in this one is overrated... in fact, I think Helen Hunt did it better in the Sessions... Anyway, Anne Hathaway will win this year!!! Plus, I'm happy Judi Dench didn't get the nomination, that would have been very unfair

  • Ariel | Thu Jan 10 23:21:58 EST 2013Reply

    I think it will be Anne or Amy!

  • leo | Thu Jan 10 18:21:00 EST 2013Reply

    I have a feeling Amy Adams will win it. I saw both the Master and Les Miserables, and Amy is definatly the better actress.

  • Ariel | Thu Jan 10 08:58:11 EST 2013Reply

    Just heard the nomination!
    1. Anne Hathaway in Les Miserables
    2. Amy Adam in The Master
    3. Helen Hunt in The Sessions
    4. Sally Field in Lincoln
    and
    5. Jacki Weaver in Silver Linings Playbook
    So surprised for the Jacki Weaver!

    ...
    And the Oscar goes to:
    Anne Hathaway in Les Miserables!

  • Rael | Thu Jan 10 02:31:18 EST 2013Reply

    I'm going for Amy Adams, Sally Field, Helen Hunt, Nicole Kidman and Anne Hathaway. Ann Dowd and Judi Dench are my spoilers.

    I really like Anne to win but Nicole Kidman swept me away, recently watched her movie. She dominates it and her counterparts, and at the end died.

  • Mel | Wed Jan 09 21:30:13 EST 2013Reply

    It seems like any time someone loses 20 pounds for a movie, or shaves a head they're seen as a revelation. Give me a break. I'd love to see Kelly Reily or Jennifer Ehle get a nom.

  • Emma M. | Wed Jan 09 15:41:25 EST 2013Reply

    Samantha Barks definitely deserves a nomination for her role as Eponine. Her singing and acting were absolutely outstanding. Anne was great, but in my opinion, Samantha stole the show.

  • Ariel | Thu Jan 10 03:13:10 EST 2013

    We think Anne stole the show over Samantha!

  • Jay | Tue Jan 08 21:50:53 EST 2013Reply

    Samantha Berks. Anne was good but nowhere near her.

  • Ariel | Thu Jan 10 03:12:22 EST 2013

    This is about acting...not singing! In singing maybe Samantha was better...but acting no way!

  • Ryan | Wed Jan 09 10:54:55 EST 2013

    Who you kidding Anne was better

  • Marie | Tue Jan 08 10:42:59 EST 2013Reply

    Now Nicole is number 6? Why? I don't think Judi Dench deserves that nomination, I mean, she has been doing this character like forever. Nicole did an amazing job in The Paperboy, I wish she wins but I'm not sure if she will... because everyone wants Hathaway for the win!!!

  • Ariel | Thu Jan 10 03:11:50 EST 2013

    Nicole just a screen stealer...but Anne does a wonderful acting job!

  • Rael | Thu Jan 10 02:58:30 EST 2013

    Anne is the favorite this year but in terms of performance, i think Nicole is far more deserving...scene stealer in every way.

  • CJ | Tue Jan 08 00:41:43 EST 2013Reply

    Even though I have only seen Les Miz, I still feel comfortable saying that Anne Hathaway totally deserves it! And Samantha Barks was incredible! Inwent in expecting Anne to be awesome (which she totally was), but wasnt expecting so much from Barks! She took what easily could have been a very forgettable background role and turned it into something beautiful, and boy, she can sing!! And both Helena Binham Carter and Amanda Seyfried were very good aswell. Seyfried was a lot better than I expected, and Bonham Carter portrayed her normal sacked out self amazingly again. Hugh Jackman was also incredible, but the females in general were the stars for me. (Crowe, Redmayne, and Baron Cohen were all good, but less fantastic, although I wouldn't be dissapointed if any of them got nods either). Go LES MIZ!!!

  • Ryan | Wed Jan 09 10:57:02 EST 2013

    Anne was so much better.

  • Emma | Mon Jan 07 16:43:38 EST 2013Reply

    Well we all know this isn't going to happen but Samantha Barks deserves it SO much more than Anne Hathaway... I though Anne Hathaway was good but not on the level on Samantha Barks.

  • Ariel | Thu Jan 10 03:10:24 EST 2013

    This is about acting...not singing! In singing maybe Samantha was better...but acting no way!

    I've finally seen "Les miserables". What a dreadful movie (and I'm a lover of musicals... GOOD musicals: The Sound of Music, Chicago, Mary Poppins, Cabaret, Grease, Hairspray...). The acting was just OK or really plain bad. Terrible XFs and artistic direction (underground compared to Zero Dark Thirty). Everything felt so false and artificial... I couldn't find a single genuine emotion in that film, it was a soap opera. And I don't get the fuss about Hathaway's performance, she was as meciocre as everyone else... or even worse. Amanda Seyfield, Samantha Barks or Helena Boham-Carter were way better than her (of course Hugh Jackman was the best performance overall). Hathaway is not in the level of some other winning musical performances at all (Julie Andrews - Mary Poppins, Catherine Zeta-Jones - Chicago, Jennifer Hudson - Dreamgirls). To even compare her performance with that ones is an aberration. My top 5 is: 1. Sally Field, 2. Helen Hunt, 3. Nicole Kidman, 4. Judi Dench, 5. Amy Adams.

  • Seraphine Flores | Thu Jan 31 10:41:50 EST 2013

    I completely agree with you. I'm also a fan of musicals. But this rendition of Les Miserables, with its over the top drama, had me so numbed out, I couldn't feel anything....except for Hugh Jackman' s, Eddie Redmayne' s, and Samantha Bark' s performances, which I did feel had some true inner depth, and were noteworthy. Still, I couldn't wait for this movie to be over! I was thinking of walking out at one point, which I never do, as I am a fan of all film making, and like to see things through to the end. But with this film in particular, I almost didn't make it....except for a few "bathroom breaks", which I totally didn't mind this time around....And in fact, happily, took as many as my little heart desired! :D

  • Ariel | Thu Jan 10 03:09:29 EST 2013

    What? Although Anne is not good as Julie, Catherine and Jennifer, she's better than all your top 5!

  • Ariel | Mon Jan 07 05:32:30 EST 2013Reply

    WHY PEOPLE WANT JUDI DENCH TO TAKE HER OUT FROM THE TOP 5????? I KNOW ANNE HATHAWAY SHOULD WIN THE OSCARS AND JUDI DENCH ALSO HAS A GREAT PERFORMANCE IN SKYFALL....AND I CALLED IT GREAT BECAUSE SHE ACTS NORMALLY.... BUT I DID'NT SAY THAT SOME ACTRESSES HAS OVERREACTED IN THEIR FILMS... I KNOW JUDI CANNOT PLAY THE ROLE OF ANNE BUT CAN ANNE PLAY THE ROLE OF JUDI????? JUST A SIMPLE QUESTION...... AND FOR ME.... THE GREAT SUPPORTING ACTRESSES THIS YEAR: 1. ANNE HATHAWAY 2. MAGGIE SMITH 3. JUDI DENCH 4. NICOLE KIDMAN 5. HELENA BONHAM CARTER .. ;-))

    Hathaway, if anyone, is a lock. I hope she's picked out a spot in her house for her first and probably not last Academy Award. Oh, there a 4 other people? Oops... Field, Hunt, Adams and Kidman. This category seems locked up to me, but I guess Dench could come down and swipe Kidman's nod.

    I would love to see Jennifer Ehle nominated. She was absolutely wonderful in Zero Dark Thirty. In all honesty, Sally Field wasn't a right fit for Lincoln. The Oscar will probably go to Hathaway, let's face it. Surprises are dead in the Academy anymore.

    I like Anne Hatheway but I didn't see anything special about her acting. She is campaigning for her Oscar non-stop like Natalie Portman. Which is a shame. You don't see the other actresses who are good in their roles, if not even better doing non-stop promotion like her. If she gets an oscar, it will like this years Natalie Portman.

  • Ariel | Thu Jan 10 09:03:35 EST 2013

  • Ranila | Tue Jan 08 21:48:02 EST 2013

    Ariel-Calling me dumb for my opinion? I never said they were bad actresses. Idiot. All I said was I didn't see anything special about her acting. She is campagining non-stop like how Natalie Portman did. I never said Natalie was a bad actress either. Sure you know about acting. You must teach at Julliard I guess?

  • Ariel | Sun Jan 06 01:12:57 EST 2013

    Are you a dumb? Natalie Portman's Black Swan performance can be described as perfect! Everybody think that was amazing! Until now when I ask my friend who do you think the best of the Oscar winning Best Actress...they would say Natalie Portman! That was just unforgettable! Anne's performance in Les Miserables was also almost perfect! If you don't like their performance, I think you just don't know anything about acting and you don't respect good actor!

  • David | Sat Jan 05 17:23:05 EST 2013Reply

    Not even Kelly Reilly? She did amazing too, she had a strong performance and a good character arc and probably one of the characters that didn't get on my nerves in the movie. I hope she's considered for a nomination at least. I don't see how Judi Dench is even in there, she's played that role so many times, Skyfall was no different, take her out! And put Samantha Barks in. Amy Adams performance was strong but not worthy of a win to me. Sally Field did an okay Mary T. Lincoln. Anne Hathaway stood out most amongst these actresses that deserve a win. She sang her heart out and applied so much emotion and context to each lyric, she went through physical transformation by getting severely skinny and chopping off her hair, only has 20 mins of screen time but that movie and the story develops more because of her. If you really look at it, she is the heart of the story. She was the best part and I can tell you this much I saw Les Miserables twice already and I can tell you a lot of people were in awe or were crying for her. I was so blown away by her performance. She has all the right necessities for a win and she did amazing work in The Dark Knight Rises and stole the show in that too. She is destined to win! She HAS to win! No questions asked.

  • Steve | Fri Jan 04 19:58:27 EST 2013Reply

    How is Samantha Barks not on here? First, they almost give her role to Taylor Swift (vomit) and then she is snubbed by Amy Adams performance in The Master? I'm sorry; I am a fan of Amy Adams but that role was so unoriginal and took very minimal effort. What makes someone worthy of winning an Oscar is if they play a role so well that you truly believe no one else could play it. Samantha Barks did that. Amy Adams' role could have been played by any one and it wouldn't have changed the film at all.

  • Sean | Thu Jan 03 16:57:09 EST 2013Reply

    Why is there so much hatred on these message boards? It's one thing to pull for your favorites, but to insult/disrespect other nominees just shows how insecure and immature you all are.

    I've seen most of these movies and Anne's was the only one that actually made the audience gasp in the theatre I was in....you could actually hear audible sobbing. Powerful performance and she should easily get this award.

  • David | Sat Jan 05 17:25:20 EST 2013

    Agree with Steve but I also agree with your opinion about Anne Hathaway. I hope she wins too! :)

  • Steve | Fri Jan 04 20:07:59 EST 2013
