Best Adapted Screenplay Prediction
Chris Raybon:American Fiction is a tenuous favorite, with only 56% of Gold Derby experts selecting it to win, with Oppenheimer getting 28% of the vote and Barbie getting 16%.
What makes this category ripe for an upset is the fact that The Writers Guild Awards won’t take place until after the Oscars (it was delayed because of the WGA strike), and the fact that Barbie is nominated in the Original Screenplay category in many of the precursors, so many of American Fiction’s wins have not come head-to-head against Oppenheimer, but not Barbie.
Bet: Barbie +600 (Bet to +200)
