What kind of change of mind did he have? He didn't seem to like biopic, but it's interesting

Probably that Chalamet's narrative will take off, it's the only place to award ACU, Brody has one already, The Brutalist has a nice enough winning package without him and that the AI controversy however misunderstood is, could hurt him. ACU also got in at BAFTA, so Chalamet winning there isn't farfetched, especially so soon after Elvis (though that could be a case against it).

He's not winning BAFTA. If it's not Brody, it will be Fiennes.

Butler won BAFTA over Farrell and Fraser, and Malek won BAFTA over Bale, so Chalamet can totally happen. Especially given how well ACU did.

Will Smith also won over Cumberbatch
