Honestly, outside of Leo there’s nothing even approximating a presumable lock in the category yet, so it’s mostly this mush of possible candidates fighting for a spot. Unless Magic Mike really turns off the AMPAS voting crowd, he could be a real competitor.

It’s a great performance and he has a few other films coming out this year that could just make this year great for him.

Nothing in July or onward qualifies as a first half release.
