Oscars 2026 odds – Michael B Jordan tops Timothée Chalamet for Best Actor | Films | Entertainment

This Sunday evening, the Oscars will take place at Hollywood’s Dolby Theatre, hosted once again by Conan O’Brien.

Paul Thomas Anderson is currently odds-on for the 98th Academy Awards to be his year, after 14 nominations and no wins.

The writer-director of One Battle After Another is expected to win three Oscars on the night, but the acting categories are proving unpredictable aside from Jessie Buckley taking home Best Actress for Hamnet.

According to Coral’s John Hill: “Michael B. Jordan [whose win for Sinners at the Actors awards caused a major upset] has jumped to the top of our Best Actor betting over the last couple of days, replacing Timothée Chalamet for the prize. The latter was a short-price for this award just a couple of weeks ago, but his odds continue to lengthen.” Check out the latest major Oscars odds below.
