Every Hollywood awards show, major movie postponed by writers' and actors' strikes

​​​​​​​View Date:2024-12-24 01:26:39

The 14th Governors Awards has been rescheduled until next year due to the ongoing writers' and actors' strike, the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences announced Wednesday.

The awards show was scheduled for Nov. 18 in Los Angeles but has been tentatively moved to January 9, 2024, pending a resolution to the ongoing labor disputes that have brought Hollywood to a halt. Angela Bassett, Mel Brooks and editor Carol Littleton will receive honorary Oscars at the annual event, and the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award will be presented to the Sundance Institute’s Michelle Satter. 

"The Academy is working closely with the Writers Guild of America (WGA) and the Screen Actors Guild (SAG-AFTRA), and will continue to monitor the situation," an AMPAS announcement says.

As the WGA writer's strike, which began May 2, and the SAG-AFTRA actor's strike, which began July 14, continue, here's a list of other events and movies that have been postponed.

Primetime Emmy Awards moved to January

In August, the Television Academy announced that the 75th Primetime Emmy Awards were moved from Sept. 18 to Jan. 15. The move means that there will be no Primetime Emmy broadcast in 2023, the first time the show has missed a calendar year since the Emmys launched in 1949.

Fox will air the show on Jan. 15 (8 EST/5 PST), Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, from the Peacock Theater at Los Angeles' LA Live. No host has been announced for the awards, honoring the best in TV.

HBO leads the nominations with 127, and just three of its series — "Succession," "The Last of Us" and "The White Lotus" — racking up 74 nominations.

The Creative Arts Emmy Awards, originally scheduled for September 9 and 10, will take place earlier in January and span two consecutive nights, starting Jan. 6. The show, honoring the best in artistic and technical achievement will air Jan. 13 at 8 EST on FXX.

The Daytime Emmys are postponed

The Daytime Emmy Awards, which were to be held June 16 in Los Angeles, were postponed in May by the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences. A new date for the 50th annual Daytime Emmys honoring soap operas and talk shows has not been set.

"We look forward to our community gathering together as one to celebrate our Golden Anniversary and all of the talented nominees and honorees at a later date," said Adam Sharp, Academy president and CEO.

In 2022, the ceremony returned to a live, in-person event for the first time since the COVID-19 pandemic began. In 2020 and 2021, the Daytime Emmys were taped events.

American Film Institute tribute to Nicole Kidman postponed

The American Film Institute announced in May that the 49th annual "AFI Life Achievement Award: A Tribute to Nicole Kidman," scheduled for June 10, was postponed. A new date has not been announced.

'Dune: Part Two,' 'Godzilla x Kong,' 'Lord of the Rings' delayed

Director Denis Villeneuve's anticipated sci-fi sequel "Dune: Part Two" was delayed until 2024, Warner Bros. announced Aug. 25. The all-star followup and potential Oscar powerhouse, starring Timothée Chalamet and Zendaya, was scheduled for a Nov. 3 release, but is now due March 15, taking it out of contention for 2023's awards season.

Warner Bros. announced the monster-filled action film "Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire" was pushed back a month, to April 12, while "Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim," an animated movie featuring the voices of Brian Cox and Miranda Otto, is now slated for Dec. 13, 2024.

'Kraven the Hunter' stalks new release date with third 'Spider-Verse'

Sony Pictures announced the release date changes for a slew of movies due to the strike on July 28. “Kraven the Hunter,” Sony's first R-rated Marvel film starring Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Russell Crowe, moved from Oct. 6 to August 30 (Labor Day weekend 2024). “Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse,” the third animated "Spider-Verse" film, moved from March 2024 to an undetermined date, pending the strike resolution.

The untitled sequel to "Ghostbusters: Afterlife" also moved from December 2023 to March 29, 2024.  

'Drive-Away Dolls' rides gets 2024 release date
