Due to the massive wildfires in Los Angeles, the announcement of the Oscar nominations was postponed until January 19, and voting was extended by two days.
The announcement of the nominees for the prestigious Oscar film award has been postponed until January 19 due to the massive forest fires that have consumed the Los Angeles area. The BBC reported it.
Initially, the ceremony was supposed to take place on January 17, but a natural disaster forced the arrangements. The fires caused difficulties in organizing the event, forcing the announcement of the names of the nominees to be postponed.
Additionally, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has extended voting for its nearly 10,000 members by two days until January 14 to give them more time to participate in the process.
Delay-causing wildfires have already caused significant losses in the region, causing chaos among residents and complicating large-scale events.
It was previously reported that comedian and TV presenter Conan O’Brien will host the Oscars for the first time in his career.
