The 91st Academy Awards ceremony, presented by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS), will honor the best films of 2018 and will take place at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, Los Angeles, California. The ceremony will be held on February 24, 2019. During the ceremony, AMPAS will present Academy Awards (commonly referred to as Oscars) in 43 categories. The ceremony will be televised in the United States by American Broadcasting Company (ABC), produced by Donna Gigliotti and Glenn Weiss, with Weiss also serving as director.[1] It was the first ceremony in three decades, since the 61st Academy Awards in 1989, to be conducted with no host.
In related events, the Academy held its 10th Annual Governors Awards ceremony at the Grand Ballroom of the Hollywood and Highland Center on November 18, 2018.[2] The Academy Scientific and Technical Awards were presented by host actor David Oyelowo on February 9, 2019, in a ceremony at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel in Beverly Hills, California.[3]
Green Book won three awards, including Best Picture, and Bohemian Rhapsody won four awards, the most for the ceremony, including Best Actor for Rami Malek's portrayal of Freddie Mercury. Roma and Black Panther also received three awards, with the former winning Best Director for Alfonso Cuarón. Olivia Colman was awarded Best Actress for portraying Anne, Queen of Great Britain in The Favourite.[4]

Ceremony information
[edit]Due to the mixed receptions and continuous declining ratings for the last two ceremonies, producers Michael De Luca and Jennifer Todd declined to helm the Oscar production. They were replaced by Donna Gigliotti and Glenn Weiss as producers.[14][15]
Host selection
[edit]On December 4, 2018, it was announced that Kevin Hart would host the ceremony.[16] Hart expressed that it was truly an honor and a thrill to be asked to host the Academy Awards, commenting, "For years I have been asked if I would ever host the Oscars and my answer was always the same... I said that it would be the opportunity of a lifetime for me as a comedian and that it will happen when it's supposed to. I am so happy to say that the day has finally come for me to host the Oscars. I am blown away simply because this has been a goal on my list for a long time.... To be able to join the legendary list of hosts that have graced that stage is unbelievable."[17] A day after the announcement, controversy emerged when past jokes and comments made by Hart were found to contain anti-gay slurs and language; after initially refusing to apologize, Hart withdrew from hosting duties on December 6, saying he did not want to be a "distraction" to the ceremony.[18][19]
On January 9, 2019, it was reported that the Academy was planning to hold the ceremony without a host, instead having selected presenters introduce segments and awards; it is set to be the first ceremony without a designated host since the 61st Academy Awards in 1989.
Best Popular Film
[edit]On August 8, 2018, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences announced the creation of a brand new category, Best Popular Film, to reward the best popular films of the year.[20] The category was met with a prevailing negative reception. The following month, the Academy announced that the category will be delayed to "examine and seek additional input regarding the new category."[21]
