Wildfires in California that have burned 16,000 hectares and forced more than 200,000 people to flee their homes may lead to the cancellation of the 96th Academy Awards.

The Academy Awards ceremony, considered the main event in the world of cinema, was threatened for the first time in 96 years due to large forest fires in California.

According to The Sun, the award committee, led by stars such as Tom Hanks, Meryl Streep, Steven Spielberg and Emma Stone, is closely monitoring the situation in Los Angeles.

“The board’s main concern now is to ensure that the event does not appear too idle at a time when many Los Angeles residents are experiencing incredible loss,” a committee source was quoted as saying.

Even if the fire is put out soon, it will take a long time to restore the city. Organizers of the award are considering the option of focusing their efforts on raising funds for the victims.

We remind you that since January 7, large forest fires have broken out around Los Angeles. They have already occupied 16 thousand hectares of territory. At least 25 people died as a result of the disaster, and this number may rise after the rubble is cleared. More than 200,000 people have been forced to flee, and another 88,000 remain under mandatory evacuation orders.

The organizers of the Oscar film awards promised to announce the final decision on holding the ceremony in the near future.

It was previously reported that the British Film Academy has announced the nominees for the prestigious BAFTA film award in 2025.

Oscar nominations will be announced later due to the fire in Los Angeles
