2022 Gotham Awards predictions in all categories: Our odds favor ‘Everything Everywhere’ for top honors

The 2022 Gotham Awards for American independent film will be handed out tonight during a live streaming ceremony taking place at Cipriani Wall Street in New York City at 8:00pm Eastern/5:00pm Pacific. Nominations were chosen by committees of film and television critics, journalists, festival programmers, and film curators. Then the winners were selected by separate juries of writers, directors, actors, producers, editors, and others directly involved in the industry. Scroll down for our official racetrack odds in every category with our projected winners highlighted in gold.

Our predictions were generated by combining the forecasts of over 1,000 Gold Derby users who have placed their bets here in our predictions center. That includes the Editors who cover awards year-round for Gold Derby, the Top 24 Users who got the highest scores predicting last year’s Gotham winners, and the All-Star Top 24 who got the highest scores when you combine results from the last two years.

And based on those predictions, the interdimensional action dramedy “Everything Everywhere All at Once” will be named Best Feature, in addition to claiming acting kudos for Ke Huy Quan in the all-gender-inclusive Best Supporting Performance category. But it’s not the only film we’re betting on to double up. “TAR” gets best odds to claim Best Screenplay and Best Lead Performance for Cate Blanchett, while “Aftersun” is favored for Best Breakthrough Director and Best Breakthrough Performer for Frankie Corio.
