Published by

With the BAFTA, Critics Choice, Golden Globe and SCL under his belt, Ludwig Göransson is set for his second Oscar for Original Score with Oppenheimer after winning this category for 2018’s Black Panther.

Only the late Robbie Robertson really figures in as a spoiler here for Killers of the Flower Moon but as is in many of the below the line categories where Oppenheimer is the frontrunner, the space between #1 and #2 is substantial.

Here are my ranked final 2024 Oscar winner predictions for Original Score.

1. Oppenheimer (BAFTA, CCA, GG, HMMA, SCL)
Ludwig Göransson
2. Killers of the Flower Moon (BAFTA, CCA, GG, HMMA, SCL)
Robbie Robertson
3. Poor Things (BAFTA, CCA, GG)
Jerskin Fendrix
4. American Fiction (HMMA, SCL)
Laura Karpman
5. Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny
John Williams

This led him down the path to obsessing about awards. Much later, he found himself in film school and the film forums of GoldDerby, and then migrated over to the former Oscarwatch (now AwardsDaily), before breaking off to create AwardsWatch in 2013. He is a Rotten Tomatoes-approved critic, accredited by the Cannes Film Festival, Telluride Film Festival, Toronto International Film Festival and more, is a member of the International Cinephile Society (ICS), The Society of LGBTQ Entertainment Critics (GALECA), Hollywood Critics Association (HCA) and the International Press Academy. Among his many achieved goals with AwardsWatch, he has given a platform to underrepresented writers and critics and supplied them with access to film festivals and the industry and calls the Bay Area his home where he lives with his husband and son.
