According to the Sunday World, there has been a surge in
betting recently, seeing the actor go down to 7/2 from an initial 8/1 with
bookmakers Ladbrokes only placing Brendan Fraser ahead of him for his role in
The Whale.
While Colin Farrell may be up for an Academy Award, the film
itself is also a contender for the Best Picture award, with only “Everything
all at once” and “The Fablemans” fancied more for the award.
Nicola McGeady of Ladbrokes told SundayWorld.com: “The odds
have taken a dramatic tumble for both Colin Farrell and his film The Banshees
of Inisherin cleaning up at The Oscars. If the money is anything to go, it will
be a great year for the Irish in Hollywood.”
