Oscar voters will have extra time to ponder their nomination ballots and final voting choices next year.
The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences and ABC announced Monday that next year's 86th Annual Academy Awards will take place Sunday, March 2. While recent Oscars shows have been held on the last Sunday of February, that date next year already has been taken by the Closing Ceremony of the Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia. So rather than move ahead on the calendar, the Academy is shifting to March as it did to avoid the 2010 Olympics closer.
