Oscar Predictions: Best Picture — Telluride Adds More Buzz for ‘Anora’ and ‘Emilia Pérez’ With ‘Saturday Night’ Leaping Into the Race
2025 Oscars best picture predictions include "Anora," "Blitz," "Dune 2," "Emila Perez," "Joker 2," "Nickel Boys," "The Piano Lesson" and "Conclave."
This film, rumored to be a technical marvel that could put the 87-year-old veteran filmmaker in the running for his first trophy, boasts a star-studded cast featuring Paul Mescal, Pedro Pascal, and the legendary Denzel Washington. Warner Bros. brings a formidable sequel trio to the table: Denis Villeneuve’s much-anticipated “Dune Part Two,” Todd Phillips’ upcoming jukebox musical “Joker: Folie à Deux,” and Tim Burton’s “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice.” The latter could surprise many, from early murmurs suggesting “it’s an awards movie.” It could earn Michael Keaton a spot in the acting categories, perhaps mimicking a similar run to Sylvester Stallone (“Creed”), depending on how the competition shapes up. Pedro Almodóvar’s English-language debut “The Room Next Door,” starring Julianne Moore and Tilda Swinton, and James Mangold’s Bob Dylan biopic “A Complete Unknown,” featuring Timothée Chalamet, are both on the radar.
