13 Movies From 2015 Already Guaranteed Oscars

10. Cinderella

Nominations: This is all about the crafts categories, where Kenneth Branagh's sumptuous Cinderella should get nods for Costume Design, Makeup & Hairstyling, Original Score and Production Design. No debate here about anything else: it's pretty clear where the film's strengths are, and they should net it 4 nominations. What It Could Win: Original Score is fiercely competitive every year and Makeup and Hairstyling invites the presence of atypical Oscar movies (like Norbit and Jackass: Bad Grandpa), so there are no guarantees, but both are certainly possible. What It Will Win: Costume Design and Production Design are its best bets, hands down. 2 wins, then.
