Resolution Criteria
The 98th Oscars will be held March 15 and will air on ABC. This market resolves YES if Teyana Taylor wins the Oscar for Best Performance by an Actress in a Supporting Role for her role in "One Battle After Another." Resolution will be determined by the official Academy Awards announcement on March 15, 2026, viewable at https://www.oscars.org/.
Background
Teyana Taylor received her first Academy Award nomination for her role in "One Battle After Another," earning a Best Supporting Actress nomination for her portrayal of Perfedia Beverly Hills in the Paul Thomas Anderson film. Taylor has already won the Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actress and received nominations from BAFTA Film Awards and Critics Choice Awards for the same role. She has won 10 precursor awards, including the Golden Globe, the second-most among her competitors.
The other nominees in this category are Amy Madigan (Weapons), Elle Fanning (Sentimental Value), Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas (Sentimental Value), and Wunmi Mosaku (Sinners).
Considerations
If Taylor or Wunmi Mosaku wins, the Oscars could deliver something that has never happened before: three Black women winning the same acting category consecutively. In each of the past six years, the Best Supporting Actress winner came from a film nominated for Best Picture, and "One Battle After Another" was second in the tally with 13 nominations, making it a strong contender overall.
