If Austin Butler wins the Oscar for Best Lead Actor, he would be the fifth youngest actor ever to win.

THE WHALE, Brendan Fraser, 2022. © A24 /Courtesy Everett CollectionBrendan Fraser’s golden moment for “The Whale” is hard to ignore and nearly impossible to root against. Nevertheless, his film is not nominated for best picture. The lead actor category hasn’t seen a winner from a non-picture nominee since Jeff Bridges in “Crazy Heart” .

That statistic alone keeps hope alive for Globes and BAFTA winnerIf Butler wins, at 31, he would be the fifth youngest actor ever to win, surpassing Nicolas Cage and behind Maximilian Schell , Marlon Brando , Richard Dreyfuss and the youngest ever, Adrien Brody .

Not only was this article astoundingly dumb when written, but now we know how extremely off the mark the were with these predictions. How embarrassing...

But who was the first fifth youngest person to win?

AButlerNews 🤞🤞🤞

Austin Butler must win

There is something special about this kid and I wish him all the best.

There already is a fifth youngest

AButlerNews 3/ like Elvis, for singing, dancing, talking, for living, thinking, breathing like Elvis. Only Austin deserves an Oscar.

AButlerNews 2/ The others only played what he could have played every single actor.Nothing extraordinary.If the oscar is not manipulated,then the one who deserves it the most will win for the hard work he had to go through,for sacrificing 3years of his life,who lived every day 24 hours a day

AButlerNews 1/ The only one of the nominees who deserves to win an Oscar is Austin. Because he was the only one who did what no one else could do. He didn't play Elvis, he became Elvis. He was the only one of the nominees who did something extraordinary.

Who the fuck is Austin Butler and why is 5th youngest notable? That’s not even on the podium if you’re handing out “youngest winner” medals.

He won’t. Brendan Fraser will.

AButlerNews The FIFTH youngest? Really? Yikes! I love Elvis and Austin Butler, but I'm not even going to waste time reading this article. Fifth youngest....🥱

AButlerNews He must win!!!! He’s the Best!!!!!!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

And one of the least impressive

Didn’t even mention the runtime

okay thanks

Elvis is rolling in his grave.

Who cares lmao

Austin Butler and Baz Luhrmann did a really good job with researching Elvis’s true story. I commend them for that and hope he wins!

Dont know dont care gimme brendan fraiser he earned it

I'm rooting for this so much!

what in the slow news day hell

He has a good chance but he won’t. Brendan will.

Soooo... Just another young actor to win. Ok cool.

And?

Out of all the people to win. He'll be one of them...

And if Brendan Fraser wins he will be the “most cryingest”

Are you serious? I guess Oscars are lack of intelligent judges...?!

The fifth youngest? WHO GIVES A FLYING FUCK?!

Brendan Fraser’s strong performance deserves the Oscar.

Fifth? If not the youngest then who cares

Too bad Brendan Fraser has it locked up already

Slow news day headline…

I’m hoping that Colin Farrell wins

It's the first year in a long time I'm happy to see any of them win, tho I think it's between Austin and Brendan now.

Wait, who is the current 5th youngest that's getting replaced?

I don’t think there’s a bad choice among the five. I’ve had a thirty year crush on Brendan Fraser, and I do actually think he’ll win, but I also think whoever wins will deserve to.

Dude is an absolute fraud

Do we really need to know he’ll be the 5th youngest? 😂

Okay but does anybody care about the 5th anything?

if? When he wins the Oscar

Who gives a shit?

This is a thing people care about?

If he does, I’ll destroy the world

And Anthony Hopkins was the 970th youngest to win the Oscar for best actor for The Father Levels

The fifth?

Behahahaha these comments are too savage 😂😂😂

ok

I assume this was the youngest?

Wooohooo! Number Five! Number Five! ...

So?

Slow news day.

Not that much of a record

“I am your father's brother's nephew's cousin's former roommate”

not the 4th? good catch

Damn, well, why don't we give him the award right now! THE FIFTH!

I don't think this is worth an article.

Slow day?

Yea, but who was the 12th youngest?

“fifth youngest actor ever to win”

I once held the title of youngest person in the world

Slow news day?

Wow. Oscars are still a thing? Who knew?

Wake me up when the 71st youngest wins

And if my brothers newborn won an oscar, it would be the 1st youngest to ever win.

talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, show stopping, spectacular

It’s like that very special Blossom episode where she had sex for the third time.

Slow news day?

fifth? you're making it way too easy to be replaced by ai.

greggturkington movie trivia!
