Hollywood strikes: Film Academy’s Governors Awards won't happen in November
Oscars statuette
This year’s Film Academy’s Governors Awards won’t take place on the scheduled date owing to the dual strikes in Hollywood. The Academy’s 14th Governors Awards are the latest to be hit by these strikes. The Academy revealed that instead of the November date, the event will now take place in January as they are hopeful that the matter will be resolved by then and all parties involved will have a solution for this. So the earlier date of November 18, 2023 is no longer valid and the event will now conclude on January 9, 2024.
Angela Bassett, Mel Brooks, and Carol Littleton to receive honorary Oscars
The Academy’s 14th Governors Awards will have Angela Bassett, Mel Brooks, and Carol Littleton receive honorary Oscars and Michelle Satter the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award.
The Governors Awards is a non-televised gala dinner that is put together by a union crew. Thus, the Academy decided to push the dates so that the union which is currently on strike, will be able to participate to put on a good show.
Oscars 2024 could get pushed
This could mean that the main event, the Academy Awards, could also be at risk of not being held on thescheduled date. The Governors Awards are usually held as a pre-Oscars event, in the thick of Oscars season. Meanwhile, the Oscars nomination voting will begin on January 11 and remain open till January 16.
