The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences announced revamped Oscar-eligibility rules Friday, with multiple changes directed at combating artificial intelligence.<\/p>\n
Most notably, in acting categories, the new rules state that \u201conly roles credited in the film\u2019s legal billing and demonstrably performed by humans with their consent will be considered eligible.\u201d The writing categories were also updated to \u201ccodify that screenplays must be human-authored to be eligible.\u201d<\/p>\n
The general eligibility requirements were also updated to note that the Academy \u201creserves the right to request more information about the nature of the use and human authorship.\u201d<\/p>\n
The new rules, which will take effect for next year\u2019s 99th Academy Awards ceremony, also now permit actors to be nominated for multiple performances in the same category, \u201cif those performances place in the top five votes, which aligns with achievements in other award categories.\u201d<\/p>\n
Academy rules traditionally prevented performers from being nominated more than once in the same category.<\/p>\n
The Academy also updated rules in various other categories. Another notable change was in the International Feature Film category, expanding ways films can be submitted for consideration.<\/p>\n
Under the new rules, international films can be submitted in the traditional way \u2014 as an official selection by a country or region. But they can also earn consideration by winning a qualifying award at an international film festival. For the 99th Oscars, the qualifying award\/festivals will be:<\/p>\n
\u2014 Berlin International Film Festival (Golden Bear for Best Film);<\/p>\n
\u2014 Busan International Film Festival (Busan Award \u2013 Best Film Award);<\/p>\n
\u2014 Cannes Film Festival (Palme d\u2019Or);<\/p>\n
\u2014 Sundance Film Festival (World Cinema Grand Jury Prize);<\/p>\n
\u2014 Toronto International Film Festival (Platform Award); and<\/p>\n
\u2014 Venice International Film Festival (Golden Lion).<\/p>\n
The 99th Oscars will be held March 14, 2027, at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences announced revamped Oscar-eligibility rules Friday, with multiple changes directed at…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":25161,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[24,601,25,206,16763,16764,12449],"class_list":{"0":"post-25160","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-ai","8":"tag-ai","9":"tag-artificial","10":"tag-artificial-intelligence","11":"tag-intelligence","12":"tag-limits","13":"tag-oscar","14":"tag-rules"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25160","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=25160"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25160\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/25161"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=25160"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=25160"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ai\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=25160"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
