Egerton. (Who I also think is getting in the Oscar lineup.)
Only person I can conceivably see beating him is Murphy. Both playing beloved performers in well-liked, audience-friendly biopics. It's a tough race, and Murphy's the bigger name, but Rocketman was the bigger film, and it feels more aligned with HFPA taste. Also, apparently Elton John like hung out with the HFPA and they love that shit.
Even though he's "ahead" in the Oscar race or whatever, I don't at all see DiCaprio winning here when he's already a three-time winner and is going against these two guys with the far more HFPA-friendly roles. And there are plenty of other categories where OUATIH will be awarded here, there's no need to do it here unless HFPA goes all-in on it.

I mean, I can kinda see where the Murphy/Egerton arguments are coming from but I ain't gonna go against Leo here.

Egerton. DiCaprio just won a few years ago (and a few years before that), and Egerton is working the fuck out of the campaign circuit.
