Box office winners at the Academy Awards

As for “Boyhood,” a favorite to win Best Picture, Richard Linklater’s 12 year opus comes in second to last with just $25 million.

Best Actor box office winner: Bradley Cooper in “American Sniper”

Most are seeing this category as a toss up between Eddie Redmayne’s portrayal of Stephen Hawking in “The Theory of Everything” which has grossed $33 million and Michael Keaton’s return to superhero tights in “Birdman” which totaled $36 million.

Yet, the box office Best Actor Oscar goes to Cooper for his role in “Sniper” as Chris Kyle, the real-life, deadliest sniper in American history.

The Academy Awards air on ABC at 7 p.m. EST Sunday night.
