Win up to 500 spins from Mega Wheel on 1st deposit. Betcris offers play-by-play betting odds for live sporting events every day in addition to many other events including the 76th annual Golden Globes, which will be held on January 6th, 2019, at the Beverly Hilton.

We’re only a month removed from the second most prestigious annual award show that recognizes excellence in film and television – the Golden Globes. The 76th Golden Globe Awards will be held at the Beverley Hilton on 6th January 2019, with a number of major celebrities gracing the red carpet.

The Golden Globes date back to 1944. The accolades for excellence in TV and film achievement are bestowed by 93 members of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. The award show takes place before the Oscars each year and is considered the second most prestigious award show of this type.

The Golden Globes betting favourites for the 76th edition are the Bradley Cooper-directed musical drama A Star Is Born and the comedy-drama Vice which explores the life of former American VP Dick Cheney. The movies have 5 and 6 nominations respectively and are widely expected to collect a lot of globes.

That is not to say that the competition won’t be tough. As a matter of fact, it’s pretty close, especially in the individual categories. The Golden Globes odds for the 75th edition of the ceremony have put legendary Hollywood actors and actresses against each other, with the difference in odds between the top favourites being tiny in some cases. The ceremony is also attractive for punters since there are different markets and odds which promise good payouts.

A Star Is Born is widely expected to end up with more than a few Golden Globes. Experts expect the Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga drama to dominate the Oscars as well, but Adam McKay’s Vice isn’t too far behind. Bookies have presented great odds in all categories for the upcoming Golden Globes, so if you were planning to stake on the show, now’s the time.

Event Date: 6 January 2019

Will A Star Is Born Win Best Drama Picture?

Who could have known that a remake could dominate the box office in 2018? After spending several years in developmental hell, Bradley Cooper signed to direct the 4th remake of A Star Is Born. The movie was (and still is) a hit. It dominated box offices around the world and was praised for the great performances by Gaga and Cooper. There’s been heavy talk about it dominating the Oscars as well. However, its performance at the Golden Globes may end up influencing its performance at the Oscars.

A Star Is Born is leading the list of favourites in the Best Drama Picture Category. SportPesa and Fun88 have given it odds of 2/9, while EnergyBet and LV BET have it available at 2/7. Compared to the other nominees, these odds are pretty low. Punters won’t like this fact, but such low odds indicate that the drama will probably win with a landslide of votes.

However, we strongly suggest looking at the other options. If Beal Street Could Talk is given odds of 21/4 at Fun88 and SportPesa and looks a much better bet. Betting on the Bradley Cooper-directed drama will give you almost nothing back in return for your bet, so you best look elsewhere. Who knows – maybe you’ll be so lucky to have your pick win in this category.

Who’ll Win in the Best Musical or Comedy Motion Picture Category?

With 6 nominations, Vice sits alone at the top of the list of multiple nominees. However, it’s not a bookie favourite in each category. For example, it is only third in the Best Musical or Comedy category at bookies, sitting behind Green Book and The Favourites. Vice is being given odds of 49/10 at Fun88 and SportPesa, and 2/1 at LV BET and EnergyBet. In comparisons, Green Book and The Favourite have 11/10 and 19/10 respectively at SportPesa and Fun88.

With odds of 49/20, Vice surely doesn’t look like the main favourite. However, many Hollywood figures have tipped it as the winner in this category, so maybe it’s worth giving it a shot. The odds certainly look better than the first two favourites – a Vice win will bring you thrice the investment. So, place a reasonable bet on the movie with a star-studded cast and cross your fingers – you might be looking at a pretty nice payout in the end.

Can Christian Bale Win the Best Musical or Comedy Actor Globe?

Thanks to his performance as Batman and Bruce Wayne in Christopher Nolan’s epic trilogy, Christian Bale has become a household name around the world. The Welsh native has 3 Oscar nominations in his illustrious career so far, winning one of the famous statuettes. This year, movie critics are sure that he can win the award for Best Actor at the Golden Globes and possibly even an Oscar for his performance as Dick Cheney.

Bale leads the list of favourites at SportPesa and Fun88 with odds of 1/1 and 11/10 at LV BET and EnergyBet. He’s a heavy favourite in this category, coming in front of Viggo Mortensen (Green Book), Robert Redford, John C. Reilly, and Lin-Manuel Miranda. At evens odds, Bale may even be the punter’s choice, considering the fact that he has earned rave reviews for his role in Vice.

If you think the same, betting on Bale will double your investment, which isn’t great but isn’t bad at all.

Bradley Cooper for Best Drama Actor?

It seems that this could be the year of Bradley Cooper, the director and lead role in A Star Is Born. Although he’s already an award-winning actor, this is Cooper’s directorial debut, and it may end up being quite a successful one. A Star Is Born is in pole position to win numerous Golden Globes categories, including the Best Drama Actor.

Cooper is available at 2/5 at SportPesa, EnergyBet, Fun88, and LV BET. He’s coming in right in front of Remi Malek, whose unforgettable performance in the disappointing Bohemian Rhapsody evoked fond memories of Freddie Mercury. Malek is second with odds of 5/2, which means that Cooper is most likely to get the award.

However, Malek’s odds are better from a punter’s point of view. If you like a bit of challenge, we’d go with him. After all, Freddie Mercury and Queen are a huge draw for the public, and Remi Malek definitely deserves the award. Place a bet on him, and it’ll bring you more than 3 times your stake should the Egyptian actor win.

Who’ll Be Crowned the Best Director?

Even though Vice and A Star Is Born are leading the list of nominees, their directors are not the favourites in the Best Director category. Bookies have put Cooper and McKay on the 2nd and 3rd spot on the list, with Alfonso Cuaron (Roma) leading the way. Cuaron is an accomplished director nominated for 6 Academy Awards, so he’ll surely be tough to beat.

His new film Roma got great reviews, with critics considering it their favourite for the Oscars as well. Cuaron is available for 2/5 at Fun88 and SportPesa, and 1/2 at EnergyBet and LV BET. Compared to him, Cooper is being given 13/5, while Adam McKay’s odds in this category stand at 39/4. Both are looking much better than Cuaron’s, so if you think that they deserve a shot, we wouldn’t argue with you.

Vice and A Star Is Born are major favourites for the upcoming Golden Globes and the Oscars, so they may probably end up winning more prizes than Cuaron’s Roma. It remains to be seen who’ll snatch the best director globe.

Sunday night kicks off the entertainment award season, and of course the first awards show is the Golden Globes. Worldwide sports book MyBookie was one of the first online books to release odds on the 76^th Golden Globe Awards. The Golden Globes air live on Sunday night, Jan. 6, 2018, and I know I will have lots of action on the Globes betting board. Some of these Golden Globe categories have big favorites, but they still have outstanding entertainment betting value! Here are the current odds on the 76^th Golden Globes Awards, and I'll tell you if you should jump on some long shots or take the favorite!

Awards shows like the Golden Globes are such a great betting option because a sharp handicapper can easily score a big profit, especially this Sunday night because it's not when, but how many upsets will happen. I can guarantee we will see some shocking upsets in 2019.

Last year my Golden Globes betting article picked not one, but two plus-money winners, and overall I went 9-2 on my predictions! This year is a very tough year with some toss up categories, but again I do see some good plus-money winners being called on Sunday. There is a reason the sportsbooks offer such low limits on these entertainment betting props as they want to decrease their overall exposure. If you are going to place some cash on the Golden Globes, I highly recommend betting them early because these numbers will move quickly because of low limits.

The 2018 Golden Globe Awards are this Sunday Jan. 6, 2019 at 8 p.m. EST on NBC with hosts Sandra Oh & Andy Samberg

The 76^th Golden Globes Awards Odds - Provided by MyBookie

Best Motion Picture - Drama

A Star Is Born -450

If Beale Street Could Talk +450

Blackkklansman +1000

Black Panther +1100

Bohemian Rhapsody +1600
(Last year winner: Three Billboards Outside Ebbing Missouri, Odds +280) Who would of thought that the Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga remake of a classic Hollywood movie would be one of the biggest movies of the year? A Star is Born is the big favorite here, but I do see not one but two big underdogs stealing the show (in some other categories). Yes, I'm talking about Black Panther +1100 and Bohemian Rhapsody +1600. But when they rip the envelope open on Sunday, the winner will be A Star Is Born. Prediction: A Star Is Born -450

Best Motion Picture - Musical or Comedy

Green Book +110
The Favourite +150

Vice +250

Mary Poppins Returns +1400

Crazy Rich Asians +1800

(Last year winner: Lady Bird, Odds -280) This category is wide open, and I see Green Book +110 and Vice +250 going toe-to-toe for the trophy. Green Book was a really good movie, but the overall acting in Vice was astonishing, and here is my first upset of the night. Both movies have become controversial, but I don't see that being an issue Sunday night. And keep an eye out for the price for Crazy Rich Asians +1800. If I can get +2000 on Crazy Rich Asians I will put some cash on that prop. You never know, anything can happen in Hollywood! Prediction: Vice +250

Best Actor - Drama

Bradley Cooper (A Star Is Born) -250

Rami Malek (Bohemian Rhapsody) +250

Willem Dafoe (At Eternity's Gate) +1200

Lucas Hedges (Boy Erased) +1600

John David Washington (Blackkklansman)+2200

(Last year winner: Gary Oldman (Darkest Hour), Odds -410) Upset Alert! I'm calling it in this category as the heavy favorite goes down. Bradley Cooper is the heavy favorite to win Best Actor, but give me Rami Malek to pull off the upset of the night. Malek was nothing but brilliant playing real-life singing legend Freddie Mercury, and in the past Hollywood loves these types of scenarios. Really blown away that John David Washington in Blackkklansman is up to +2200, and if his price continues to climb I might have to lay some small cash on him. Either way, the favorite goes down in this category, but I also see the favorite winning in another category. Prediction: Rami Malek +250

Best Actor - Musical or Comedy

Christian Bale (Vice) -120

Viggo Mortensen (Green Book) +120

Robert Redford (The Old Man And The Gun) +600

Golden Globes Betting Odds 2019 Super Bowl

John C. Reilly (Stan & Ollie) +1800

Lin-Manuel Miranda (Mary Poppins Returns) +2200

(Last year winner: James Franco (The Disaster Artist), Odds -300) Last year a -300 favorite won (James Franco), and I'm completely shocked that Christian Bale is only -120 to win this category. Viggo Mortensen and Robert Redford can both steal this category, but really, did you see the transformation that Bale did for his performance as Dick Cheney? Bale's physical transformation alone should get him the win on Sunday. Prediction: Christian Bale -120

Best Supporting Actor

Mahershala Ali (Green Book) -150
Timothee Chalamet (Beautiful Boy) +130

Richard E. Grant (Can You Ever Forgive Me?) +600

Sam Rockwell (Vice) +1400

Adam Driver (Blackkklansman) +2600

(Last year winner: Sam Rockwell, No Odds) Not many sports books put up odds for 'Best Supporting Actor' because Sam Rockwell was a huge favorite, and this year I believe getting Mahershala Ali at -150 is a steal. Ali played classical pianist Dr. Donald Shirley in the Green Book, and he was nothing but brilliant in the movie. I'm not going to lie, but Richard E. Grant +600 can also pull off the upset in this category. However, again I believe it's Ali's to lose Sunday night. Prediction: Mahershala Ali -150

Best Actress - Drama

Lady Gaga (A Star Is Born) -230

Glenn Close (The Wife) +220

Nicole Kidman (Destroyer) +1100

Melissa McCarthy (Can You Ever Forgive Me?) +1200

Rosamund Pike (A Private War) +1800

(Last year winner: Frances McDormand (Three Billboards Outside Ebbing Missouri), Odds +100) Lady Gaga is the favorite to win this award, and don't forget she already has a Golden Globe when she won in 2016 for American Horror Story. It looks like she will bring home another. The only other actress I see maybe pulling off the upset is Glenn Close +220, but again I just don't see that happening. Prediction: Lady Gaga -230

Best Actress - Musical or Comedy

Olivia Colman (The Favourite) -180

Emily Blunt (Mary Poppins Returns) +150

Charlize Theron (Tully) +1200

Constance Wu (Crazy Rich Asians) +1200

Elsie Fisher (Eighth Grade) +1400

(Last year winner: Saoirse Ronan (Lady Bird), Odds -350) Here is another really tough category, and this will come down to two actresses. Either one could walk away with the statue. Olivia Colman is the favorite in the movie The Favourite, but watch out for the triple threat (sing, dance, and act) Emily Blunt in Mary Poppins Returns. I believe Blunt deserves this award, which rewards acting in a musical the most. However, I don't see her pulling off the upset this Sunday night. Prediction: Olivia Colman -180

Best Supporting Actress

Regina King (If Beale Street Could Talk) -170

Amy Adams (Vice) +120

Emma Stone (The Favourite) +900

Claire Foy (First Man) +1000

Rachel Weisz (The Favourite) +1400

(Last year winner: Allison Janney (I, Tonya), No Odds) Last year Allison Janney dominated award season and took home the Golden Globe, and Sunday night I see Regina King having a huge evening. Not only will she win for 'Best Supporting Actress' but she will win a Globe for 'Best Actress in a Limited-Series or TV Movie'. Mrs. King will be queen Sunday night, and again she could go home with not one but two Golden Globes. Prediction: Regina King -170

Best Director

Alfonso Cuaron (Roma) -250

Bradley Cooper (A Star Is Born) +250

Adam McKay (Vice) +900

Spike Lee (Blackkklansman) +1400

Peter Farrelly (Green Book) +1600

(Last year winner: Guillermo Del Toro (The Shape of Water), Odds +130) I didn't pick Bradley Cooper for 'Best Actor' because I believe he pulls off the upset here for 'Best Director'. The big favorite, Alfonso Cuaron, won this award in 2015 for Gravity, and I see this category going down between Cooper and Spike Lee. Yes, I stated Spike Lee +1400, who has been nominated three times and has yet to win. But he could he pull off the upset of the night. I still believe a plus-money winner wins this category, and this category is going to be fun to see who gets announced. Prediction: Bradley Cooper +250

Best TV Drama Series

Killing Eve -150

The Americans +320

Homecoming +400

Pose +700

Bodyguard +1200

(Last year winner: The Handmaid's Tale, Odds -500) Yes, Killing Eve is the favorite, but I'm calling for 'The Americans' to pull off the upset Sunday night. The Americans series ended this year with a great ending, and this show has been overlooked by the HFPA every year but this year. Keep an eye out for 'Homecoming' +400. If this number climbs, I might have to take a stab at it. Prediction: The Americans +320

Best Animated Feature

Incredibles 2 -110

Ralph Breaks The Internet +160

Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse +250

Isle of Dogs +400

Mirai +1200

(Last year winner: Coco, Odds -1000) Talk about a wide-open category for Best Animated Feature. Last year Coco was the clear heavy favorite, and this year Incredibles 2 is the small favorite. But I believe a plus-money winner takes home the statue. In my eyes this category is between Ralph Breaks The Internet and Spider-Man, and it wouldn't shock me if either of those two brought home the win. Prediction: Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse +250
