About The Wife from RottenTomatoes:

After nearly forty years of marriage, JOAN and JOE CASTLEMAN (Glenn Close and Jonathan Pryce) are complements. Where Joe is casual, Joan is elegant. Where Joe is vain, Joan is self-effacing. And where Joe enjoys his very public role as Great American Novelist, Joan pours her considerable intellect, grace, charm, and diplomacy into the private role of Great Man's Wife. Joe is about to be awarded the Nobel Prize for his acclaimed and prolific body of work. Joe's literary star has blazed since he and Joan first met in the late 1950. THE WIFE interweaves the story of the couple's youthful passion and ambition with a portrait of a marriage, thirty-plus years later--a lifetime's shared compromises, secrets, betrayals, and mutual love.

Close stated in her 2019 Golden Globes acceptance speech that the film took 14 years to make as no A-list actors wanted to appear in a film titled The Wife. The producers eventually found British actor Jonathan Pryce.

Oddsmakers believe Close will win, and if so, this would be her first Oscar. She has been nominated seven times.

Close has tight competition as Olivia Coleman has received some strong accolades while Lady Gaga tied with Close at the Critic's Choice Awards.

Close requires a $50 bet to win $10 with that $50 refunded as long as she wins.  Coleman pays $35 for every $10 bet while Gaga would pay out $100 for every $10 bet.

    Glenn Close (The Wife) -550
    Olivia Coleman (The Favourite) +350
    Lady Gaga (A Star is Born) +1000
    Yalitza Aparicio (Roma) +4000
    Melissa McCarthy (Can You Ever Forgive Me?) +5000
