Oscars 2017 is fast approaching and sets of possible winners for different categories are already on the list. Here is the list of those with the highest probability of winning.

Page Six has shared its predictions. For The Best Actor, Casey Affleck ("Manchester by the Sea") was predicted to win until Denzel Washington's ("Fences") name surfaced. For the Best Actress, Emma Stone ("La La Land") is the strongest contender. Viola Davis ("Fences") is a lock for Best Supporting Actress and Mahershala Ali for Best Supporting Actor. For Best Director, all hands are raised for "La La Land's" director Damien Chazelle.

The Sun has shared its list of possible 89th Academy Awards winners. The 14 times nominated the Golden Globes 2017 "La La Land" is very likely to win the Best Picture, Best Visuals, and Best Score categories. The film is about two people who are struggling to realize their dreams. Sebastian (Ran Gosling) is a jazz pianist who wants to put up his own restaurant. Mia (Emma Stone) is a waitress in a coffee shop who is dreaming of landing an acting role.

Mel Gibson's "Hacksaw Ridge" is a strong contender for Best Director, Best Picture and Best cinematography. It is about a soldier Desmond Doss who went to war but is against killing. He managed to rescue his men in the midst of the war without any weapon but prayer. It has three Golden Globes nominations.

Natalie Portman's "Jackie" is most likely to bag the Best Picture, Best Costume Design, and Best Actress. The actress plays the role of former first lady Jackie Onassis. This movie tells about her experiences after the death of her husband. It was nominated for three BAFTAS and three Critics' Choice awards.

Denzel Washington is predicted to win the Best Actor trophy. It is about a rubbish collector and a baseball player who were discriminated. Washington's victory is predicted by the SAG which correctly predicted the Best Actor winners for ten years straight.

If Denzel wins the Oscars 2017, he will be the seventh actor to have won more than two, joining the likes of Jack Nicholson and Katharine Hepburn. The Sun's bet for Best Actress is Stone. For the Best Supporting Actress, it is Michelle Williams. "Lion's" Dev Patel is the Best Supporting Actor.
