Justine Triet’s chances for a double win

Can Cillian Murphy win Best Actor?

Emma Stone has two chances to win
Poor Things landed two nominations for Emma Stone- for Best Actress and Best Picture. If she triumphs in both categories- she will become the second actress to win both acting and producing Oscars, after Frances McDormand won for Nomadland in 2021.

How Hayao Miyazaki can make history

Will Oppenheimer make a clean sweep?
Oppenheimer is going into the Academy Awards with a leading 13 nominations, and is an odds-on favourite to claim more than one win.
