Awards Shows and Nominations Delayed by the L.A. Wildfires


The Oscars has extended its voting window to accommodate screening cancellations.

Since January 7, more than 100,000 residents of the Los Angeles metropolitan area have been placed under evacuation orders in response to major wildfires that have already resulted in five fatalities and thousands of destroyed structures. A number of awards shows and nomination announcements have already been postponed or canceled with voting bodies, nominees, and workers affected by the fires. The AARP Movies for Grownups awards was meant to be hosted by Alan Cumming at the Beverly Wilshire on Saturday, January 11, “in consideration of the families and communities impacted,” but has been delayed by organizers with no new date set.
