Summary

The 98th Academy Awards air this Sunday, with the Best Picture race headlined by favorites Sinners and One Battle After Another. Leading the 2026 awards season, Sinners has already made history by shattering the record for Oscar nominations. Earlier this week, Film critic Neil Rosen joined FOX News Rundown host Chris Foster to preview the Academy Awards and break down the most anticipated categories. Rosen, who has covered the film industry for decades, offers his predictions on who will win and gives his opinion on who should win. He also discusses the state of the business, how streaming continues to reshape the industry, and why he’s pessimistic about the future of theaters. We often must cut interviews short during the week, but we thought you might like to hear the full interview. Today on Fox News Rundown Extra, we will share our entire interview with film critic Neil Rosen and let you hear even more about his take on this year's Oscar nominees and why he says it was a ‘bad year’ for the film industry.
