By The 2021/2022 awards calendar will be updated throughout the year as new dates for film’s biggest and best events, nominations and awards are announced.
After and extended season last year that took eligibility all the way to February 28, 2021, the Academy has decided to make 2021 eligibility 10 months long, from March 1 – December 31, but also to keep the 2020 pandemic rules in place for streaming content. This is most likely a stop gap until we are completely post-pandemic.
With no Golden Globes this season (or at least no televised version on NBC), Critics’ Choice quickly came in and scooped up the Globes’ usual spot, the second Sunday in January.
The Academy revealed that Oscar shortlists will be December 21, Oscar nominations will be February 8 and the 94th Academy Awards will take place live and in person at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood on March 27, 2022.
