On this episode of the Gold Derby Show, editors and experts Joyce Eng and Christopher Rosen say farewell to the 2024 Oscar season by looking ahead to the 2025 Oscar race. First, Joyce and Chris recap their ridiculously early 2024 Oscar predictions from last March (00:10). Then, Joyce and Chris make their very first ridiculously early 2025 Oscar predictions in eight top categories, including Best Picture (10:50), Best Director (25:14), Best Actor (30:11), Best Actress (34:41), Best Supporting Actor (40:15), Best Supporting Actress (46:55), and adapted and original screenplays (51:36). Finally, Joyce and Chris dig into the post-Oscars mailbag to answer questions about Cillian Murphy, the awards season narratives they couldn't believe, and more (58:00).
