2024 Oscar predictions by movie: ‘Oppenheimer’ will win 8 including Best Picture

When the winners of the 96th Academy Awards are announced on Sunday, Mar. 10, “Oppenheimer” will become one of the winningest films of all time with eight trophies. This final tally is derived from our official odds with nearly 8,000 experts, editors and users logging their predictions for the champions in 23 categories. See a complete list of predicted winners organized by film below.

If it does indeed take home eight Oscars, “Oppenheimer” would tie with only eight other films that have won eight trophies. Those movies are a veritable list of classics: “Gone with the Wind,” “From Here to Eternity,” “On the Waterfront,” “My Fair Lady,” “Cabaret,”  “Gandhi,” “Amadeus” and “Slumdog Millionaire.” Amongst “Oppenheimer’s” awards will be Best Picture, Director for Christopher Nolan, two acting prizes for Cillian Murphy and Robert Downey Jr. and four other design and craft categories.

WATCH Experts slugfest: Our final 2024 Oscar winner predictions

As this year’s Oscars celebrate the films of 2023 and the year of “Barbenheimer,” it is fitting that the only other movie we expect to win multiple trophies is Greta Gerwig’s “Barbie,” which our users expect to take home the awards for Costume Design and Original Song. Other champions in the top categories are expected to be Lily Gladstone for “Killers of the Flower Moon,” Da’Vine Joy Randolph for “The Holdovers” and screenplay trophies for “American Fiction” and “Anatomy of a Fall.” Popular films “Maestro,” “Poor Things” and “The Zone of Interest” will likely go home with an Oscar apiece, too.
