AI Model Picks
Jonny Greenwood — One Battle After Another
Greenwood has been nominated multiple times without winning and is considered overdue. His work with PTA is legendary, and music branch voters deeply respect his compositional approach. This could be his year.
Max Richter — Hamnet
Richter's score for a literary adaptation about Shakespeare's son is reportedly devastating. The emotional weight of this film lives in the music and voters will feel it.
Ludwig Göransson — Sinners
Göransson's score has been called integral to the film's atmosphere. A previous winner for Black Panther, his work on Coogler's most ambitious film feels like a natural pairing. The Sinners sweep potential extends here.
Alexandre Desplat — Frankenstein
Desplat is a two-time winner with enormous respect in the Music Branch. Frankenstein's gothic atmosphere likely demanded exactly the kind of orchestral work that wins this category. He's a reliable pick.
