What's Going to Win Best Picture? We Rank the Oscar Field

5. "Wicked"

Now we're into the top contenders. Most likely, the winner is coming from one of these next five. Jon M. Chu's Broadway adaptation might have the most moviegoers rooting for it to win, but it's missing some key ingredients for pulling out best picture. Chu missed on a nomination for best director and the "Wicked" has mostly been out-musical-ed by "Emilia Pérez" on the awards circuit. Still, "Wicked" has cornered the market on the role of Big Studio Movie contender. However it does, the film academy is going to make sure "Wicked" is front and center during the ceremony.
