The Academy, which has entrusted this task to Jimmy Kimmel for the last two years, is making changes this year. The 97th Oscar Awards Ceremony to be held on March 2, the famous talk show host Conan O’Brien will present.
Conan O’Brien, who became famous with his talk show Late Night with Conan O’Brien, which is also broadcast in our country, may not be seen as much on television in recent years, but he does remarkable work in digital. Conan, whose podcast Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend is very popular, has also achieved great success as a podcast producer. Conan’s podcast company, named Team Coco, was sold to SiriusXM for $150 million in 2022.
The fact that a popular name like Conan will present the Oscars may bring back some of the audience that has moved away from the Oscars in recent years. Although Conan’s job will not be easy. Because one of the dullest awards seasons of recent years awaits us. 2024, which has been a very unproductive year for cinema, has not yet presented a significant film that will be competitive at the Oscars, except for Dune Part Two. That’s why we can watch a race between films that do not have much appeal in the general audience, such as The Brutalist and Anora.
