The film academy has drawn ire by cutting four Oscar categories from this year’s broadcast – prompting disagreement from both fans and industry insiders.
The Oscars currently have 24 categories.
For those four categories, the winning speeches will air later in the broadcast and will also be live-streamed on Oscar.com and the film academy’s social accounts.
During the ceremony on 24 February, the Oscars for cinematography, film editing, makeup and hairstyling and live-action short will be presented off the air, during commercial breaks.
