The Oscars are this weekend: They'll look a lot different than they did last year

The Oscars are finally being handed out this weekend after being delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic and public health restrictions against gathering and travel.

Like the 2019 and 2020 ceremonies, this one won't have a host either, with producers opting for a bevy of big-name presenters instead. Members of the audience will not be required to wear masks during the telecast, but will be able to wear them during commercial breaks.

The most nominated film at the Oscars this year is Netflix's Mank, with 10 nods, followed by The Father, Judas and the Black Messiah, Minari, Nomadland, Sound of Metal and The Trial of the Chicago 7 with six apiece.

The 93rd annual Academy Awards will be held Sunday, April 25, 2021, at the Dolby Theatre where it's been held since 2013, as well as Los Angeles Union Station.

In Canada, they will air live on CTV starting with pre-show programming at 6:30 p.m. ET.

Here, we've collected moments from the 2020 ceremony that'll have you saying: "Huh, that was just last year?"
