You can watch the 2022 Academy Awards on March 27 on ABC at 8 p.m. ET. If you don’t have cable or prefer to stream, you can also watch the broadcast online — through the ABC app — or on services like Hulu Live, Youtube TV, or AT&T TV Now. There will be an Oscar’s preshow, called “Oscars into the Spotlight,” that will air starting at 6:30 p.m.
According to CBS News, this year’s broadcast marks the first time the Oscars will have a host since 2019. The award show went hostless after comedian Kevin Hart pulled out of hosting duties near the end of 2018 following backlash over his homophobic tweets he posted several years prior, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Regina Hall, Amy Schumer, and Wanda Sykes will be the three hosts during this year’s broadcast and will rotate every hour to keep things fresh.
After the announcements were made, Schumer expressed her excitement on Instagram. “Honored to be performing with these legends @iamwandasykes and @morereginahall,” she wrote. “Mama I made it!” Besides the hosts, Oscar presenters like Lady Gaga, Lily James, Daniel Kaluuya, Zoë Kravitz, and Mila Kunis are sure to drum up excitement as well, per ABC.
