5. Wicked
Musical Wicked has been a huge box office hit and is 16/1 for the Best Picture Oscar. If it doesn't win this year it'll have another chance in 2026 - part two is out in December. | Contributed
6. A Complete Unknown
Timothée Chalamet has been getting rave reviews for his starring role in James Mangold's film about Bob Dylan. He's one of the favourites for Best Actor at the Academy Award and the film is an 18/1 shot for the Best Picture gong. | Contributed
7. The Nickel Boys
Telling the devastating tale of a Florida reform school where teenage boys were abused and killed, The Nickel Boys is a 20/1 shot for Best Picture. Directed by RaMell Ross, it tells much of the story from the first person perspective of the characters. | Contributed
8. Dune: Part Two
The second part of Denis Villeneuve's adaptation of epic scifi 'Dune' had been favourite for the Oscar when it was first released but has drifted out to odds of 20/1. | Contributed
