The Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences has voted to allow movies that forgo a theatrical run to be eligible for the Oscars until further notice. With movie theaters around the world shutting down to prevent the spread of coronavirus, many films have seen their release dates pushed out of 2020 entirely. Because of this, many have wondered what an Oscars ceremony that was limited to only a handful of qualifying films would look like given the Academy's established rules about qualification.
In a statement posted on the official Oscars website, the Academy revealed that for this year only, movies that debut on streaming services or were VOD releases will be considered alongside their theatrical brethren.
