The Nominations For The 2021 Oscar Awards Have Been Announced

This time last year the Oscars had already rolled up the red carpet, but due to Covid-19 and the pandemic, the awards ceremony was pushed back to a later date.

More than two months ago the 93rd Academy Awards scheduled the show for April 25. The awards will recognize films released during a year in which movie theaters were largely closed, making it the strangest award ceremony in history.

Streaming services, which were already on the rise as an awards-season presence, are set to dominate in April, both with their own productions and with conventional studio films that were released by streaming platforms as a result of the pandemic.
