YouTube Or Netflix Could Be The Next Home For Oscars After ABC Contract Ends: Report

Last Updated: Streaming giants like YouTube and Netflix are in the running to host the Oscars after ABC's 2028 contract ends. Could Hollywood's biggest night go digital? Will the 2029 Academy Awards be streaming on YouTube? With ABC's broadcast contract ending in 2028, major streaming and network companies are eyeing the rights to host Hollywood's biggest night. Bloomberg reports that Google-owned YouTube is emerging as a contender alongside Netflix, NBCUniversal, and other media giants. Like Netflix, YouTube has steadily increased its focus on live events. The platform successfully acquired the NFL Sunday Ticket in 2023 and has bid for other major live broadcasts. Meanwhile, ABC has aired the Oscars since 1976, and Disney could still extend its long-standing contract. However, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has reportedly explored alternative options, both as a negotiation tactic and a potential new home for the awards. YouTube's Big Play for Hollywood's Biggest Night Most potential bidders for the Oscars aren't surprising: Disney's ABC, Comcast's NBCUniversal, Netflix, Amazon, and Paramount's CBS all have stakes in live programming or major studio-backed content. But YouTube is the unexpected contender. Sources indicate the platform has inquired about acquiring the rights, signaling a serious move into live entertainment beyond sports and podcasts. Hosting the Oscars would be a bold statement for YouTube. Known primarily for on-demand videos, YouTube would instantly gain global attention by broadcasting a live event watched by millions. The platform's massive reach could inject new energy into the Oscars, which have faced declining ratings in recent years despite occasional spikes, such as the 2025 ceremony—the highest in five years. Hollywood, Streaming, and the Bottom Line While the idea of a YouTube-hosted Oscars may excite fans, it's far from certain. ABC will continue airing the show through 2028, and the Academy is still negotiating. Many bidders can combine broadcast networks with streaming platforms, while several own major studios that prioritise theatrical releases. For now, the Oscars remain a high-profile, though challenging, live event in a changing entertainment landscape. Whether it stays with ABC, moves to Netflix, or takes a digital leap to YouTube, Hollywood's biggest night will continue to evolve—both on TV and online. view comments First Published: August 19, 2025, 00:20 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

This 2-hour 32-minute psychological thriller film will send chills down your spine, climax will leave you speechless, movie is..., lead actors were...

In a city veiled in darkness, a sinister pattern begins to emerge, gruesome murders marked by eerie smiley faces, each more unsettling than the last. Fear spreads like wildfire as a relentless killer plays mind games with the police. But this isn't just a hunt for a murderer, it's a chilling descent into the disturbed psyche of both predator and pursuer. Which film is this? Here we are talking about Iraivan, a Tamil-language psychological thriller film directed by I. Ahmed, which is one such movie that has stirred conversations among audiences and critics alike. Released on September 28, 2023, the film delves into dark corridors of human psyche, exploring themes of justice, trauma, and the thin line between sanity and madness. What was the storyline of Iraivan? The narrative centers around Assistant Commissioner Arjun, portrayed by Jayam Ravi (now known as Ravi Mohan), a cop known for his unorthodox methods and a penchant for delivering justice through lethal encounters. His world is upended when he confronts a serial killer named Brahma, played by Rahul Bose, who leaves a trail of gruesome murders marked by smiley face notes. The case takes a personal toll when Arjun's close friend and colleague, Andrew, is killed during the investigation, prompting Arjun to resign and seek solace in a quieter life with Priya, Andrew's sister, played by Nayanthara. However, peace remains elusive as Brahma escapes custody, reigniting a terrifying killing spree that forces Arjun back into the fray. How were the performances? The film's strength lies in its atmospheric tension and the performances of its lead actors. Jayam Ravi delivers a compelling portrayal of a man grappling with guilt and a thirst for justice, while Rahul Bose's depiction of Brahma is chillingly effective, capturing the essence of a remorseless killer. Nayanthara, though given limited screen time, brings depth to her role, embodying the emotional anchor in Arjun's tumultuous life. Despite its promising premise, Iraivan received mixed reviews. Critics praised the film's initial setup and the psychological complexity of its antagonist but noted that the narrative loses momentum in the second half. Some reviewers also pointed out that the film's attempt to shock with graphic violence overshadowed its psychological depth. More about Iraivan Box office-wise, Iraivan performed modestly. With a worldwide gross of around Rs 22.5 crore, it didn't break records but found its audience post-theatrical release, which was made under budget of Rs 4 crore, and is currently streaming on Netflix.
