We are in the awards season and that only makes us think of all the movies we saw this year and that some of them have already become one of the favorites of many and we cannot deny that this year the cinema has gone through a completely different procedure than other years, from the simple fact that the actors and screenwriters went on strike for several months.
Now, despite all the problems, a new edition of one of the most important awards in the entertainment industry is coming and there is already a final prediction of who would be the big nominees to take home the big prize.
These are the final predictions of the nominees for the 96th Oscars.
This prediction has been put together by The Hollywood Reporter’s executive awards coverage editor Scott Feinberg and represents Scott’s best guess as to how the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences will perform.
