2020 Academy Awards...Idea...

I think, since the movies are not being released, no real theater/ box office showings....Add a category for Performances that should of won and Academy Award for the main groups...sometimes, these things need time to be digested...some real fantastic acting out there that deserves recognition...Here is the perfect opportunity.

Example...Val Kilmer for Tombstone as Doc Holliday...should of won a best supporting actor award...

Include movies too...

I think there were a lot of great supporting roles in that movie....Towers Booth, Bill Pullman, Sam Elliott.

It's interesting how time uncovers overlooked roles in movies....it would be a good opportunity to revisit the movies from past years to see how opinions have changed.

They have a category for "Best Ensemble Cast". It can be very hard to select just one supporting actor or actress in a film or TV program and even if you select more than one, they tend to cancel each other out.
