Will Packer Teases About The 2022 Oscars
In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, the producer teased movie fans about what will happen at this year's Academy Awards.
Packer and his crew are the first all-Black team to produce the Oscars in its 94-year run.
Speaking about his approach in producing the event, the producer noted that he wanted to bring everybody together around the "idea of a love for cinema."
"So one of the things you'll see is that not everyone involved with the show may be a movie person," he added.
Packer also opened up about how the three hosts will entertain the evening's audiences and viewers at home, saying Schumer is "fearless," Skyes is "truthful," while Hall is "a total wild card."
"They will not be boring. Make no mistake, people watching will say, 'They're leading with comedy this year' - which is a fact," he concluded.
This year's awards show will feature nominees in different categories, including Andrew Garfield, Denzel Washington, Will Smith, Benedict Cumberbatch, and more for the Actor in a Leading Role.
For the Best Actress award, Penélope Cruz, Nicole Kidman, Kristen Stewart, and more are running to win the coveted title.
