2024 Best Picture Oscar Odds: Oppenheimer Given 97% Chance to Win The Oscar
The 2024 Oscars Awards will go live on Sunday night, and Oppenheimer is expected to have a highly successful night. Christopher Nolan's film about the Manhattan project has an incredible 13 nominations, including the marquee events of Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Actor.
Cillian Murphy stars in the film, playing world-renowned physicist Dr. Robert Oppenheimer. Murphy gave an impressive performance, and has been nominated for the Best Actor award in recognition. Nolan also pulled out all of the stops, and refused to use CGI effects for the famous explosion.
Oppenheimer is heavily favored to take home the top prize, but there are still a few nominees including Poor Things and Barbie who are in contention. Let's take a look at the latest Best Picture odds for the 2024 Oscars and see who will bring it home.
2024 Best Picture Oscar Odds
| Best Picture | Odds |
|---|---|
| Oppenheimer | -3300 |
| Poor Things | +2500 |
| The Zone of Interest | +3300 |
| Barbie | +4100 |
As seen from the table, Oppenheimer is heavily favored at -3300 odds to take home the Best Picture Award. The implied odds give Christopher Nolan and his team a 97% probability to win it, while the rest of the competitors have a slim to none chance.
Barbie may have grossed much more than Oppenheimer at well over $1 billion, but they will not contend for nearly as many awards. The production quality of Nolan's film far surpassed anything on the market this year, hence why they earned a whopping 13 nominations throughout the various categories.
