Here’s Who Will Win the 2026 Oscars According to the Odds

We’re only a week away from the 2026 Oscars, and many fans want to know the latest odds on who will win every category. The 98th Academy Awards, which is set to air on Sunday, March 15, on ABC and Hulu, will be the final battleground between some of the best movies last year, including Sinners, One Battle After Another, Hamnet, Marty Supreme, and Frankenstein. After the Oscar nominations were announced in late January, we’ve seen the results from other award shows, like the Golden Globes and most recently the SAG-AFTRA’s Actor Awards. So taking those into consideration, along with predictions from experts and betting markets, here’s who people think will take home the golden statue.
