Oppenheimer is the clear favourite to win the Best Picture award at this year's Oscars
The 96th Academy Awards will take place next month and bookmakers have changed some of the biggest markets round once again following last weekend's BAFTAs.
Oppenheimer unsurprisingly won the Best Film award at the BAFTAs after being the heavy favourite and it has now shortened further into 1/10 now to win the Best Picture.
The movie was one of the biggest of last year with the Barbie and Oppenheimer battle massive around the summer Box Office with Barbie winning the figures in terms of money made.
It's Oppenheimer though that is winning some of the big honours during awards season with the movie now as short as 1/10 with William Hill to win the Best Picture Oscar.
| Oscars 2024 Best Picture | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Oppenheimer | 1/10 | 90.9% |
| Poor Things | 9/1 | 10.0% |
| The Holdovers | 11/1 | 8.3% |
| The Zone of Interest | 14/1 | 6.7% |
| Anatomy of a Fall | 16/1 | 5.9% |
What the expert says...
Billie Eilish and brother Finneas are 1/7 to win Best Original Song at the Oscars
Another interesting category on the night will be the Best Original Song with bookies having a clear favourite in this market too despite previous awards this season.
'I'm Just Ken' is a song from Barbie performed by Ryan Gosling and Mark Ronson and Andrew Wyatt and has already pipped Billie Eilish and brother Finneas to 8 awards.
Eilish and Finneas though are the 1/7 favourites for Best Original Song for their fellow Barbie hit 'What Was I Made For?' which has been massive across the last year.
| Best Original Song - Oscars 2024 | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Barbie - What Was I Made For? | 1/7 | 87.5% |
| Barbie - I'm Just Ken | 9/2 | 18.2% |
| KOTFM - Wahzhazhe (A song for My People) | 10/1 | 9.1% |
| American Symphony - It Never Went Away | 12/1 | 7.7% |
| Flamin' Hot - The Fire Inside | 25/1 | 3.8% |
