While I have only seen Janney and Manville out of these nominees, good God is Janney awesome in _I, Tonya_.

I’ve heard Metcalf is outstanding in _Lady Bird_, and Manville was impressive, but … all glory to Janney in this category.

Another actress that really deserves it. C.J. Cregg for the win.

I didn’t see Mudbound or I, Tonya, so my vote isn’t really valid. But of the other three, I think Metcalf definitely deserves it, though Leslie Manville had my favorite supporting performance (male or female) this year.
