Jason Binn predicts best actor

New York, Feb 12

Actor Forest Whitaker is in the lead to win the best actor Oscar for his performance in 'The Last King of Scotland', predicts Jason Binn, publisher of the Los Angeles Confidential magazine.

Binn has got it right most times by putting eventual winners on the cover of his annual Academy Awards issue, reports pagesix.com.

Last year, it was Philip Seymour Hoffmann, who won for 'Capote'. The year before, it was Jamie Foxx on the cover, and he won for 'Ray'. Liv Tyler's 'Lord of the Rings' won best picture in 2004, and prior to that, Renee Zellweger's 'Chicago' won best picture award.
