Predictions for the 2026 Oscars are fueling debate among critics and the film industry, as some of the year's most talked-about films are in the running for the Academy's top awards.
The film "Sinners," a musical horror that deals with the theme of racism, leads the nominations list with 16 nominations, placing it at the top of the predictions in many analyses.
However, according to some critics, the film that stands out most in terms of artistic quality is "Sentimental Value", a drama about family conflicts that is appreciated for its emotional intensity and the way the story is constructed.
In the Best Picture category, predictions suggest that the trophy could go to "Hamnet," a Shakespearean-inspired drama that is expected to attract votes from the Academy's more mature audience.
In the Best Director category, the race is seen as a duel between Paul Thomas Anderson for "One Battle After Another" and Joachim Trier for "Sentimental Value." However, some analysts believe that Ryan Coogler, the director of "Sinners," could gain widespread support in the industry.
For best actor, the main favorite is considered Timothée Chalamet for his role in "Marty Supreme", although some critics consider Leonardo DiCaprio's performance in "One Battle After Another" to be artistically stronger.
In the best actress category, the favorite is Jessie Buckley for her role in "Hamnet", while Renate Reinsve for "Sentimental Value" remains one of the main contenders.
In the supporting categories, Sean Penn for his role in "One Battle After Another" is seen as one of the strongest candidates for best supporting actor, while Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas for "Sentimental Value" and Wunmi Mosaku for "Sinners" are mentioned for supporting actress.
In the Best International Film category, special attention has been paid to the film "Un semplice incidente" by Iranian director Jafar Panahi, which represents France and may receive widespread support at the Academy due to the international political context.
