Right now, Bradley Cooper’s not part of the Best Actor Oscar talk. Not yet, anyway. Right now, according to experts, it’s breaking down like this:
Michael Keaton
Benedict Cumberbatch
Eddie Redmayne
And then…
David Oyelowo
Steve Carell
Jake Gyllenhaal
But Selma lost some momentum today being left off the list of Producers Guild nominations. And Clint Eastwood’s American Sniper continues to build. For Cooper then, not only will he have Clint’s support, and all the connections that come with that, but also, his actor friends…?
Ben Affleck and Leonardo DiCaprio reportedly attended/hosted events in support of their friend Bradley Cooper. Jonah Hill, 2X Oscar nominee and friend of Marty, Leo, and Brange tweeted the other day in support of Bradley Cooper:
I just watched American Sniper. You have to see what Bradley Cooper does in this movie. His performance is next level.

Bradley Cooper hasn’t been openly campaigning but behind the scenes, it seems like a lot of people are campaigning for him while he looks good, working hard on Broadway, taking the subway to work, seemingly oblivious to the hustle.
