20 Movies That Will Win Oscars In 2023

3. The Woman King

The Viola Davis-starring historical epic The Woman King may not be pegged as a major awards player in frontline categories, yet enthusiastic reviews have lauded its technical execution and especially Davis' Oscar-worthy lead performance.

Davis will likely receive a Best Actress nomination for her work, though Gina Prince-Bythewood's film is far more of a serious threat in the below-the-line categories.

In particular, a Best Costume Design nomination is all-but-guaranteed, and given the gorgeous battle garb on display in the film's trailers, it could very well take the win too. Also don't discount nods for Makeup and Hairstyling and potentially also Production Design.

The Woman Kind won't come away with a trunk-full of Oscars, but it'll likely nab at least one.
