18th Awards Psychic Halfway Award Winners

Best Picture
Winner - Project Hail Mary
Runners Up - The Invite, Is God Is, Leviticus, Pillion
Commentary - An incredibly fun, emotional, and entertaining film, Project Hail Mary is an instant blockbuster classic with fantastic performances, the standouts being Gosling and Huller, it leaves you only wanting more. 

Best Director
Winner - Phil Lord and Christopher Miller "Project Hail Mary"
Runners Up - Aleshea Harris "Is God Is", Olivia Wilde "The Invite", Adrian Chiarella "Leviticus"
Commentary - See Best Picture

Best Actor
Winner - (TIE) Joe Bird "Leviticus" and Stacy Clausen "Leviticus"
Runners Up - Ryan Gosling "Project Hail Mary", Harry Melling "Pillion", Kieron Moore "Blue Film"
Commentary - Leviticus could have been another horror film. The two lead performances of Joe Bird and Stacy Clausen, and a clever script, provide a depth and emotional levity that elevates this film to a really great film. 

Best Actress
Winner - (TIE) Mallori Johnson "Is God Is" and Kara Young "Is God Is" 
Runners Up - Rachel McAdams "Send Help", Zendaya "The Drama"
Commentary - Is God Is is a bright, crazy, and brash film filled with fantastic performances. Its two leads Mallori Johnson and Kara Young just burst onto the screen, embracing the chaos in bold and inventive performances that are jaw-dropping to watch. 

Best Supporting Actor
Winner - Edward Norton "The Invite"
Runners Up - Jack O'Connell "28 Years Later: The Bone Temple", Alexander Skarsgard "Pillion"
Commentary - The Invite is a great ensemble piece, and, for me at least, Edward Norton is the true star, from his sneaky hilarity, his contribution to the story, and his star presence is a standout amongst standouts. 

Best Supporting Actress
Winner - Sandra Huller "Project Hail Mary"
Runners Up - Penelope Cruz "The Invite", Renate Reinsve "Backrooms"
Commentary - See Best Picture

Best Screenplay
Winner - Harry Lighton "Pillion"
Runners Up - Will Soodik and Kane Parsons "Backrooms", Cesc Gay, Will McCormack, Rashida Jones "The Invite", Drew Goddard "Project Hail Mary"
Commentary - Pillion could have been a BDSM-bore. But Lighton manages to get great performances out of his actors and turn this story into a surprisingly sweet and funny love story. 

Best Animated Feature
Winner - Hoppers
Runner Up - Toy Story 5
Commentary - Both great films, and the Toy Story machine continues to churn. But I really loved the humor, new characters, great action, and feel-good storyline of Hoppers. 

Best Ensemble
Winner - The Invite
Runners Up - Backrooms, I Love Boosters, Project Hail Mary, Toy Story 5
Commentary - Four legends at the top of their game bring together a great ensemble piece.

2026 Emmy Nomination Predictions: Best Drama and Comedy Series

Best Drama Series
The Diplomat 
A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms
Paradise
The Pitt
Pluribus
Slow Horses
Stranger Things
Task

Other Contenders - The Gilded Age, The Morning Show, Industry, Euphoria, Fallout, Landman, IT: Welcome to Derry, Matlock

Commentary - The Pitt, The Diplomat, Paradise, Pluribus, Task, Slow Horses. Six slots are locked and loaded. I think the good reviews and buzz behind A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms will make it in, similar to House of Dragon's first season. After that, I don't know. Stranger Things has always overperformed and it was the last season. I have it in a shaky eighth place. The Gilded Age could easily make it in, as it really is unique in this bunch. The Morning Show, Euphoria, Fallout might still have some goodwill in their favor. Or maybe this is the year that popular and well-reviewed offerings like Landman, Welcome to Derry, or Industry make the cut. 

Best Comedy Series
Abbott Elementary
The Bear
The Comeback
Hacks
Margo's Got Money Troubles
Only Murders in the Building
Shrinking
Widow's Bay

Other Contenders - Rooster, Nobody Wants This, Jury Duty Presents: Company Retreat, The Chair Company, Wednesday, The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins, Palm Royale, Big Mistakes, I Love LA, The Lowdown, Murderbot

Commentary - Abbott Elementary, The Bear, Hacks, Only Murders, and Shrinking. Five slots locked.  Two unproven newcomers are getting a lot of support, Widow's Bay and Margo, and I expect the well-received new season of The Comeback to get some support. Rooster, Nobody Wants This, Jury Duty, and The Chair Company are fun wildcards. Wednesday is a previous nominee, and I think The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins, I Love LA, and The Lowdown are interesting newcomers.
