2023’s Oscars Ceremony Date Announced by The Academy
The date for next year's Oscars ceremony has been announced by the Academy. The 2022 Academy Awards took place on March 27, where winners included Will Smith, Jane Campion, Ariana DeBose, and Kenneth Branagh, while Dune took home the most awards of the night due to its wins in the technical categories, and CODA defeated Power of the Dog for Best Picture, winning for its screenplay and supporting actor Troy Kotsur. Perhaps the most memorable and discussed moment of the night was in the most unfortunate and incidental manner when Smith slapped presenter Chris Rock for making a joke about his wife moments before he won Best Actor. Smith has been banned from the Oscars for a decade and will not be presenting the Best Actress category next year, as it is per tradition with the Oscars.
