While other awards shows have been postponed because of a surge in COVID-19 cases, ABC said plans remain in place to hold the Oscars, the highest film honors, on March 27 in Los Angeles.
This year's ceremony will have a host, ABC Entertainment President Craig Erwich said at a Television Critics Association event.
The Oscars were handed out by celebrity presenters but had no host in the past 3 years.
