What the expert says..
Christopher Nolan is favourite to win Best Director for Oppenheimer
Christopher Nolan is the favourite to win the Best Director at the 2024 Oscars with the big name director still not winning an Oscar as of yet.
Oppenheimer could be the best chance he has at winning the award with the movie ticking a lot of boxes when it comes to previous Oscars winners.
Martin Scorsese is the biggest rival in the betting market to Nolan for Killers of the Flower Moon with those two movies expected to be big players during awards season next year.
| Oscars 2024 Best Director Winner | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Christopher Nolan - Oppenheimer | 6/4 | 40.0% |
| Martin Scorsese - Killers of the Flower Moon | 7/4 | 36.4% |
| Jonathan Glazer - The Zone of Interest | 3/1 | 25.0% |
| Celine Song - Past Lives | 4/1 | 20.0% |
| Denis Villeneuve - Dune: Part Two | 6/1 | 14.3% |
Oppenheimer also favourite to win Best Picture
Oppenheimer is now the favourite to win Best Picture at the Oscars with the betting market chopping and changing in recent weeks following the film's big release.
Killers of the Flower Moon had long been favourite for the Best Picture award for the past couple of months but that has all changed now with Oppenheimer 7/4 at the top of the betting.
The odds are tight though with Killers of the Flower Moon just 2/1 to win Best Picture and it's likely to be a two horse race if the odds are to be believed.
