AwardsWatch Podcast #173: Everything has led to this – our final 2023 Oscar winner predictions
On episode 173 of The AwardsWatch Podcast, AW Executive Editor Ryan McQuade is joined by Editor-In-Chief Erik Anderson and AW contributor Sophia Ciminello give out their final predictions for the 2023 Academy Awards.
Well, there is no backing away now. We are in the final week of the Oscar season, leading up to the Oscars being handed out in just six days. As we stand, we are looking at what could be a history making night for A24’s Everything Everywhere All at Once, and the biggest question remains, how many Oscars do we think the film is going to go home with? There also are plenty of categories still wide open, making this one of the most exciting finishes to an Oscar season in years. Ryan, Erik, and Sophia break it all down and give out their final predictions, though they still have the right to change one or two things at the last second.
