Movie buffs are trying to work out the list of Oscars 2026 nominations before they are announced in January. Both the Golden Globes and Critics Choice Awards nominations have been revealed, which has narrowed the field considerably on which films, directors, actors, actresses, and more will be up for the Academy Award win. Fortunately, experts and critics have weighed in on their predictions for the upcoming Oscar nominations, and we’ve compiled the odds in one place.

List of all Oscars 2026 nomination odds

The following are the prediction odds for the Oscars 2026 nominations in every category, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actress, and Best Actor. This comes by way of a combined poll on Gold Derby (as of December 11, 2025) between experts, editors, and users. For the sake of brevity, we will include all answers that received at least 10% of the vote.
