The Academy Awards were due to take place on 28 February next year but have now been put back until 25 April.

Next year's British Academy Film Awards (Baftas) have been pushed back to 11 April
keeping in line with the Oscars.
The pandemic has already halted work on a number of films which were due to be released by the end of the year.
The Oscars has only been delayed three times before - due to LA flooding in 1938; after the assassination of Dr Martin Luther King Jr in 1968; and following the attempted assassination of President Ronald Reagan in 1981.
It's not yet known if the ceremony will be virtual or in person as it is too early to say.
David Rubin
president of the Academy - the body behind the Oscars- and its CEO Dawn Hudson said: "For over a century
movies have played an important role in forting
inspiring
and entertaining us during the darkest of times.
"They certainly have this year. Our hope
in extending the eligibility period and our awards date
is to provide the flexibility filmmakers need to finish and release their films without being penalised for something beyond anyone's control.
"This ing Oscars and the opening of our new museum will mark an historic moment
gathering movie fans around the world to unite through cinema."
Nominations will be announced on 15 March
2021.
The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences recently changed its rules so films that debut on streaming or video on demand services are eligible for next year's awards.
The current rules say films can only enter if they have been shown in a Los Angeles cinema for at least a week.
But with cinemas shut during the coronavirus crisis
anisers said a "temporary" exception was necessary.
Many film releases have been delayed
with others going straight to digital.
The Oscars is not the only big entertainment event to have been affected by Covid-19.
The prestigious Tony theatre awards were due to take place earlier this month but were postponed and a new date is yet to be announced.
Some events have been cancelled
including last month's Eurovision Song Contest.
Last week
The Academy pledged to ensure greater inclusivity in its future award ceremonies
to "level the playing field".
It also said there would always be 10 films in the best film category rather than a fluctuating number beeen five and 10.
This rule won't e into play until 2022
however.
