The Best Supporting Actress category for this year's Oscars does offer some of the best value we've seen with recent Academy Awards with Amy Madigan (Weapons) technically the -125 favorite, but with close competition, including Teyana Taylor (One Battle After Another) promising a payout of $210 for every $100 (or $21 for every $10 bet) bet and Wunmi Mosaku (Sinners) offering a $320 payout for every $100 bet (or $32 for every $10 bet).
Madigan is an American actress known for her versatility across film, television, and theater. Madigan has appeared in many notable movies and TV shows, including Field of Dreams (1989), Uncle Buck, Grey's Anatomy, Carnivàle, and Fringe. In 2025, she won a Critics' Choice Movie Award and received Academy Award and Golden Globe nominations for her role as Aunt Gladys in the horror movie Weapons.
The film Weapons was written and directed by Zach Cregger (who previously made Barbarian). The plot follows the case of seventeen children from the same classroom who mysteriously run away on the same night at the same time. Only one child remains and nobody seems to know why. The sudden disappearance sends the town into panic. Parents, teachers, and police search for answers while suspicion spreads among the community—especially toward the children’s teacher and the family of the lone remaining boy.
“I’m just kind of stunned by the whole journey that I’ve been on. This is another piece of it that I was not expecting, but I’m very happy and gratified," Madigan said of being nominated for an Oscar.
Taylor is an American multi-hyphenate who works as a singer, songwriter, actress, model, dancer, choreographer, and music video director. She uses the pseudonym “Spike Tee” for directing, and has worked with artists like Diddy, Queen Naija, and Schoolboy Q. Taylor has won BET's Video Director of the Year award twice, in 2020 and 2023, a first for a Black woman in the category. She was named one of Time's 2026 Women of the Year.
One Battle After Another is favored to win the Oscar for Best Picture. The story follows an ex-revolutionary who is forced back into his former combative lifestyle upon getting pursued by a corrupt military officer. Taylor plays Perfidia Beverly Hills, a French 75 member, and the lead character Pat's partner.
“Everything is happening, everything I ever dreamed of… one answered prayer after another," Taylor said of the nomination. "You have all these different thoughts and emotions where it’s like, ‘Oh my God, this is so amazing.’ Of course, you feel like every project deserved that recognition — what made this one more worthy than the other one?”
Mosaku, known professionally as Wunmi Mosaku, is a BAFTA-winning British-Nigerian actress who has built a career on versatile roles. She first gained recognition for her roles as Holly Lawson in Vera and Joy in Moses Jones. Mosaku has also appeared in His House, Fantastic Beasts, Batman V Superman, and The Social Reckoning.
She stars as Annie, the estranged wife of one of the main characters played by the favorite to take home the Best Actor Oscar, Michael B. Jordan (he plays twins).
