More oscar worthy actress? Sasha, Troian or Janel?


These three are the best actresses of the main Liars but who do you think is the most Oscar worthy?

Sasha Janel or Troian

It's hard to say if anyone told me that Emma Stone would be an Oscar front runner some years ago or Shailene Woodley from Secret Life of the American Teenager would've been an Oscar contender then I would've laughed in their faces. Troian has the most range of the group but Sasha or Janel could easily land the right role for their strengths to pull it off. So basically any of them. I think Troian is the best overall actress in that group but Janel could easily do great work in a musical.

Troian I could see winning for a surprise indie hit.
Janel could win for a musical. She can apparently both sing and dance.
Sasha could be a surprise hit in a dramatic movie. She has that flare about her and she's able to hold down her own.

Depends on the right role and how well they play politics. Oscars really is about politics.

This is what is going to happen. Ashley Benson is the only blonde in the group, plus she is connected to Justin Bieber and all the Disney stars that are still mega famous. She has been in some hit movies as a minor character. She will maybe win an oscar somewhere down the line or an Emmy for a Lorelai Gilmore(esque) character.

JK, I do not know.

I think they are all Oscar worthy given what I have seen over the years. They all still have room for improvement as well and they could only get better. I feel like they are all high levels of talent but I feel like it is mostly up to them. There have been no teen drama actors besides Sebastian Stan and Blake Lively(both from Gossip Girl weirdly) that have become big movie stars who might be nominated at some point. You do not have to be in a big movie to be nominated but it helps. However, it is hard coming from TV and elevated yourself to a movie level actor who gets recognition. They are all much better than Blake Lively, who is pretty terrible if you ask me but the movie industry and TV is mostly a popularity contest. It is sad that some of the least talented actors become huge yet the most talented get pushed in the deep end. I unfortunately think they will all end up continuing TV or maybe some really bad movies. That is just the unfortunate truth.

It is sad because if Pretty Little Liars had the benefit of having buzz from fashion magazines like Gossip Girl did that one of their careers would have been elevated beyond teen drama and at least moderate movie star level. Blake Lively's success was mostly based on her wearing Dior, Oscar De La Renta, etc. in her show because designers kept sending that show their clothes for free which is why she got a bunch of advertising deals from Chanel and Gucci. Unless you have that like Sex and the City's Sarah Jessica Parker, then none of them will get become buzz worthy enough to elevate their careers.

All three of them has the potential of getting nominated. It totally depends on their roles, how they promote themselves, and who they work with. But out of all them I see Sasha getting nominated one day. Janel is more into music and dancing while Troian is more into indie films and directing. Sasha has already star in a oscar nominated film.

Sasha. She has the most range and appeal as an actress. For a character that's probably the worst written of the liars, she's still pretty good.

Troian is good, but limited, so I can see her being part of award winning films. Janel is great, but I find her too over-the-top. I can definitely see her winning a Tony, though.

Janel, she seems to have played the most characters. Vengeful nerd, shy nerd, glamorous friend, genius, victim, crazy, emotional, girlfriend, sweet, angry. We have seen a big range from her.
