Tomorrow at 8:22am EST the nominations for the 90th Academy Awards will be announced by Academy President Cheryl Boone Isaacs, Tiffany Haddish, Andy Serkis, Priyanka Chopra, Rosario Dawson, Gal Gadot, Salma Hayek, Michelle Rodriguez, Zoe Saldana, Molly Shannon, Rebel Wilson and Michelle Yeoh. So with that being said, I'm here to give you my predictions on what I believe will be nominated in each category for the Awards show. Now all of the technical (behind the scenes excluding director) categories have a random numbers of different nominees (one category could have 5 another could have 3). With that being said I will put down what I believe he top 5 contenders for each award is since I do not know which categories will have 5, less than 5 or more than 5. The awards for Best Actor, Actress, Supporting Actor, Supporting Actress and Director always have 5 nominees, so the ones you see are who I think will be nominated. So without further ado..........
Best Picture
Now Best Picture has a catch. There can be between 5 and 10 nominations. So I'll give you my 5 that will without a doubt make the list and then I will add what I believe would be the 6th, 7th etc.
