The 2021 Oscars broadcast has already sparked speculation about just how the producers will bring off this most unusual show.

Audience capacity will be limited to 170 people, with attendees rotated in and out through the show. Attendees will be required to take a temperature check upon entry to the venue and take at least three COVID-19 tests in the days leading up to the ceremony. While guests will be asked to wear face masks when not on-camera, Union Station will be treated as a television production location, and attendees will not be required to wear masks while on camera. A total of 20 remote venues have been established around the world, including Australia, for nominees.
